What I got was a clean recording of the vocal and guitar on each channel. I had the CX431 pre-set to medium with the trim at the 1:00 position. At this setting, I had no hiss or noise and plenty of headroom. I panned the vocal mic left and guitar right in the CX431.Īs for settings in the Canon 5D MK II, I set the audio manual input 1 click right of off (all the way left).Of the 64 settings the new Canon firmware allows, I chose setting 1 of 64. IThis allowed me to have balanced XLR feeds directly into the CX431 and Canon 5D MKII. I used a Whirlwind mic splitter and DI Box that allowed me to intercept the mic and guitar feed before it went to the house soundboard. I downloaded the new firmware (Canon 2.0.4) and used a CX431. I recently recorded a 4 hour live concert of a singer-guitar player.
