The Sony VENICE offers several ways to import professional audio. Three different types of audio signals can be imported through the five-pin audio connector. Watch as I demo how to input these signals, as well as how to manage them using the internal audio menus.

In small-to-no-crew, corporate and documentary work having the ability to record multiple audio sources to a single camera is a must. A common frustration, however, when using wireless solutions is that most of them are single channel transmitter and receiver based systems.

The RØDE VideoMic Pro+ is one of the most popular powered camera microphones ever produced. The third version of this microphone introduces some new features and also improves upon the design of the earlier iterations of the microphone.

The MixPre-3, MixPre-6, and MixPre-10T are the latest additions to the Sound Devices line of professional audio equipment. Each unit is a feature rich mixer and recorder. In this blog, I focus on how they can be used to record audio from your camcorder.

The Video Devices PIX-E5 offers the same quality and flexibility of audio options as its Sound Devices counterparts. In this blog, I take a look at available audio input options for the PIX-E5 using SDI, HDMI or Line Level inputs.

In my latest video, I talk about the new Beachtek DXA-ALEXA for the ALEXA Mini. As you may know, audio input to the ALEXA Mini is via a Mini 5-pin connector on the front housing, while audio into the camera is line level only. This presents operators with a challenge getting their mic level signals into the camera.

Quality audio is a must on any shoot, and Sennheiser offers professional audio solutions at an affordable price. In this blog, I take a look at two solutions using the Canon C300 MK II as a point of reference for shooting with a compact camcorder.

At NAB 2015 I reported on Sennheiser's AVX system, which includes a lavalier mic, transmitter and receiver. What makes this system unique is the fact that it is able to set its own levels.

Sony has announced a new firmware update to the FS7 that will be available free of charge on March 15. This update includes great new features and improvements, including support for 4K XAVC-I recording, the ability to encode and write ProRes files to a single internal XQD card, and 4-channel audio recording capability.
