Re: XLR feed from sound board
 

Good lesson is always record at least two options. I do trust my wireless and know I should prefer wired. With my wireless I know what I get which is the reason I spent so much on an amazing kit. The wireless to the sound board was pretty low quality due to the clients budget. Hard to convince this client that wired is the way to go.

Re: XLR feed from sound board
 

I have a Sony HXR NX5U with dual XLR. I got one line from a Behringer mixer's master out to Input 2 (switched to line with mic +48). I left my shotgun on mic 1 with +48. The audio level was so low I had to crank the channel gain and the audio level on line 2 almost all the way up to get a medium level signal. Has anyone dealt with this. I ran off the control room out (headphones) and sounded great, as did the control out from 1/4 to XLR.

When I swithed to mic imput, sounded good but was probably over-amped. Sony, Behringer, B&H were no help. Thanks,
Steve

Could be your sensitivity settings.

Yes, and the board's output could have been abnormally low.. not gain staged properly.
