I've done this at various studios a bunch of times for shooting documentary stuff... just a 2 pair of XLR [50 foot run is usaully good for the control room..and another seperate 50-100 footer pair for the tracking room,size dependent.. [seperate patch] tied together [if camera is 2 xlr in]
or just headphone out to 1/8 inch mini adapter..just make sure the connection at camera is safety tied off..so a little tug doesn't kill the inputs.
just have to mind the cables..[interns are great for that !]
then you always get a good clean 2 mix .
I've even done wireless 2 mix sends to various cameras for bigger budget stuff..total freedom of movement
just make sure the camera inputs are line, in manual gain
Great idea!
Look forward to seeing more! thumbsup |
Thanx for the advice. I normally
want the sound from the camera mic, but it's easy to sync up the board mix in FCP if needed. For some of the next videos it might be better to have the recorded sound rather than the camera mic, so you can hear what went to "tape".
