Hey Paul. I really enjoy your videos. Very thoughtfully constructed and easy to follow. I especially liked your suggestion about how to use the second channel as a safety by choosing either auto gain or a lower level. Brilliant! I would not have thought of that on my own. I also like the tip about linking the channels on a stereo mic to simplify level adjustments. So helpful! Watching your videos is certainly time well spent! Kudos to you!

@doylelacrua 2 года назад

Splendidly created video. I was wondering, how to do feel about the mic-in on the camera itself? I feel like it's not very good and will likely only use the handle when I need to worry about audio. It's unfortunate cuz I feel like the handle is also the camera's weakness.

@PaulJoy 2 года назад

Hi Doyle. I haven't actually used the in camera input yet so I'll make a point of comparing it the next time I'm doing some recording. I know what you mean about the handle, it does feel a lot better with the SmallRig handle extension on it but it's still not as tough and solid feeling as a metal handle.

@philvfilms Год назад

Really great info thanks. I’ve just ordered an xlr mic for mine and also use the wireless go 2. What settings work to enable me to have the xlr handle mic audio and the 3.5mm for the wireless go 2 at the same time ?

How can I get the audio channels level displayed as is shown on your video. I’ve switched to 4 channels recording but I can’t display them large on the center of the screen to adjust them properly. I can only view them on the upper left side of my screen. Thank you and keep doing the good that you do

@fabtus 2 года назад

Hi Paul, thank you for your video. I use the Fx3 with the Rode ntg4. But when I touch the camera and handle it is too loud in the audio. So now I hold the camera like a raw egg. Do you have that problem too? And how did you solve it? I would be very happy about some advice. Greetings Fabian

@PaulJoy 2 года назад

Hi Fabian. I’ve not had to do much shooting using the built in mic holder but it’s a fairly common problem with these Sony mounts as they are not the best at isolating the mic from handling noise. I’ve used various mic mount adapters in the past to try and solve that problem however with the FX3 you don’t really have any other mounting points. There’s a device by rode called the NTSM5 that converts the mic holder to a better suspension mount, something like that might help.

@filbilly Год назад

Hi Paul, When using the handle I'm assuming the internal audio level on the FX3 are bypassed so this setting doesn't matter. Thanks!

@PaulJoy Год назад

Hi John, yes that’s correct, you can’t use the internal audio level when the handle is connected.

@MANGO-FILM Год назад

Hi Paul, I am confused with the display of the audio level. With my FX3 it is shown only with the inbuild mic. If I use another mic or use the handle and more different mics it is shown only very small in the left corner, hardly to be seen. I have got the firmware 3.0 .....Do I miss anything? Thanks Bernd

@PaulJoy Год назад

Hi there. Since firmware 2.0 the audio meters have been small on top left corner so that’s normal.

@grovermcdiarmid8109 Год назад

Is that seamless ability to switch audio tracks in FCPX also a thing that you can do in Premiere Pro (select the specific audio track)

@PaulJoy Год назад

I don’t use Pr but yes you will be able to choose the audio tracks to play and adjust them individually.

@tigerwittman 2 года назад

When you use one xlr mic and you set the 2nd channel to auto how do you view both channels when you are in your video editing software?

@PaulJoy 2 года назад

It depends on the software you use but for me in Final Cut Pro you can see the channels in the audio inspector. If the software is showing it as one stereo track you should be able to change it to dual mono.

@ekphotography 2 года назад

Awesome, helped a lot. Newbie Audio guy here with the FX3... Thank you!. I imagine there is no way to use an XLR Rode NTG4+ and a Lavalier with 3.5 mm at the same time or am I wrong. Since input options are Input 3 or 1+ 2 or just 1? Correct?

That’s great, have fun with the FX3 and feel free to leave more comments if you have any questions.

@daltonbrowne7980 2 года назад

Have you recorded anything into input 3? I cannot get any levels with the XLR unit on, but if I plug into the 3.5mm on the body it records after I switch handle audio off. I also have the input selected to input 3 so I know that is not the issue.

@PaulJoy 2 года назад

Yes, check out my video on 4 channel audio where I show that being done. You should still be able to record input 3 in 2 channel recording though. If you have selected IN3 and the handle is switched on then Input 3 should be recording to channels 1 & 2. The only thing I can think of is that you might have something connected to the mic input on the side of the camera, if you do that it will disable the handle.

@PaulJoy Год назад

That's how I would do it, just use two 3.5mm to XLR adapters and use the handle. I've not tried the DJI Mic so can't offer any advice to the noise levels etc.

@Superjeanmarc Год назад

@@PaulJoy Thanks for the reply! I tried using only one adapter, but then there is no way to split the signal... When connecting to the mini-jack input of the handle, it does a great job to split both signal on channel 3 and 4, but without the option to set the gain indivualy on the XML module of the FX3 (Although I guess i can use the touchscreen from the DJI receiver).. To split the signal into both XLR input, do you use a special cable?

@Superjeanmarc Год назад

@@PaulJoy To clarify my previous comment, if you want to use the DJI Mic (or Rode Go II, same concept) and connect the receiver to the XLR input, instead of Input 3 (3.5mm), could you use a Stereo female to dual mono male cable? The 3.5mm jack coming out of the dual receiver would be splitter into two separate male jacks that you could plug into XLR adapters. Would that allow to get to separate signals on channel 1 and 2, with the benefit of having a full control over gain, Att and low cut via the butons on the XLR module of the FX3?

@PaulJoy Год назад

@@Superjeanmarc I see, so if I understand correctly, the DJI Mic is a dual transmitter to single receiver that splits the two signals in to the left and right channels of the 3.5mm output? If so then yes you should be able to use a cable like this to send the signal to the two XLR inputs and set the levels independently... amzn.to/3Dq99v0

@Vitaphone 2 года назад

Ive been wondering if this handle can be used with any legacy sony cameras? still on an a7sii and seen these occasionally on the 2nd hand market.

@PaulJoy 2 года назад

I'm not sure as I no longer have my a7sII to test it but I'd suspect not as the FX3 handle doesn't have the digital/analogue switch that the XLR K3M adapter has and according to Sonys website that needs to be switched to analogue to work with the a7sII. The a7sII also doesn't have the threaded fitting points so you couldn't lift the camera by the handle anyway.

@Vitaphone 2 года назад

@@PaulJoy I had suspected the threading issue could be circumvented by mounting the handle to a cage and then just using a Mi shoe port extension cable… however the no digital analog switch seems like it may be a deal breaker.

RE: Low Cut Filter. One thing to keep in mind, is that low frequencies can build up and over-modulate (fancy way of saying "distort") your input signal. The low frequencies added energy eats up headroom and is useless for most mic situations (a board feed from a musical performance would be the exception). The human voice does not operate below 100Hrz, You are sacrificing audio headroom by not attenuation the low frequencies. "Bass is a bitch". On another note, in multi-cam situations, the 1/8" input on this MI shoe adapter is perfect for "time code-as-audio"....a Tentacle Sync would be ideal for this style body. ::casio//16-year vet of multi-cam reality sound

@@PaulJoy I am not sure to be honest...when I first started with the XLR handle I just left everything on default settings plugged thing in and it worked...then I went and moved things around, where you said leave attn on 0, put it to IN1 to get two tracks etc...all my audio came out terrible...I want to buy the Zoom m3 and be done with levels...but that means I have a Deity S2 mic, and an xlr handle like $950 Canadian worth of gear just sitting around for nothing...

the only problem I see...which is a big one....I do like 30 clips 1 to 10 minutes each...so I cannot record externally because putting everything together would be like putting a puzzle together...so I am thinking of the Zoom m3 for the interviews to get 100% good audio...and the rest when filming crowds etc...just use the xlr handle...not sure what happened but my audio was crap....I am being given close access to certain groups so I need my audio to be 100% for the interviews...
