Sd 302? at DVinfo.net

Denny Kyser · September 20th, 2008, 09:24 PM

I got my SD 302 and so far I love it with the A1, I do have to have my pods turned all the way up but seems to be much better audio.

Here are a couple questions.

I would love to be able to record to my Sony PCM D50 recorder and my Canon XH-A1 at the same time, can this be done with out having to go mono to my XH-A1.

My PCM D50 accepts a stereo 1/8 miniplug for the microphone / line in.

Also I seem to be getting good audio but my volume controls on the XH-A1 have to be all teh way up, is there anything wrong with that. Audio seems to be real clean, but just wanted to check.

Thanks

Use the tape out connector on your 302 to your Sony PCM D50

As for the pots wide open on your camera.. I usually don't like doing that on all cameras, but that one is an exception.

Thanks for the coment. I really like everything about the setup, was hoping this would not be a problem with ports wide open.

I analyzed SD302 to "pots open" XH-A1 connection with Adobe Audition: S/N ratio was over 90 dB! That's almost the theoretical maximum, can not ask for anything better.

I see the pots as attenuators with line in, not amplifiers. Nothing wrong in turning attennuation all way off...

Hi Denny, what you need is the "XL-3" 3.5mm to TA3-F cable which you plug into the "tape out" on the 302. In my case I use it with an Edirol R-09 recorder and it works really well.

Thanks for the part number.
