The right side of the Control Unit (as you hold the camera) has the
output ports for the captured sound.
Main Stereo Out
Records direct to the media in the camera,
eliminating synchronization issues. Outputs
two channels via a stereo connection. The
stereo signals are encoded using Dolby
ProLogic II to support the 5.1 mic inputs.
They may be played back as stereo or
decoded for surround sound.
The direct connection to the video camera
enables on-camera surround sound capture
from multiple points and perspectives within a
venue.
Stereo Headphone Out Virtual surround headphone output with gain
control on 3.5mm mini stereo jack for live and
instantaneous on-camera monitoring of the
surround field.
Although the headphones are stereo, a
virtual surround processor inside the Control
Unit takes the six channels of audio and
virtualizes them through the headphones.
You will hear a close approximation to the
surround sound being recorded.
There is a gain control for the headphone
output on the rear of the Control Unit. (See
below.)
Six Channel Output
Three stereo jacks provide six line-level
analog outputs, using the left and right
channels of each jack. You can run these
directly into the console or into any other type
of device that captures six or more channels
of audio.
The output is line level (rather than mic level)
to eliminate the need for an external pre-
amplifier. You can capture 5.1 channels on a
wide variety of recording devices.
Use this six-channel option if you prefer not to
have the sound capture encoded as stereo.
You can also use the main stereo out and six
channel output options simultaneously.
External Center Microphone Input
Auxiliary Center channel microphone input
(XLR) for attaching external lavalier or
shotgun microphone. Selector switch, gain
control and phantom power selectable.
