I'm korean (sorry for bad english:embarasse )

and..

I use my HVX in DV by
built-in mic with default audio setting (-50db and level nob is to 12 o'clock)
the sound I want to is just the location sound, not very clean and long range sound)

but recorded clip's audio level is too low and must boost gain(with noise) in FCP to use

change gain to -60db and rotate level nob ,
then I got satisfied level but too much noise.
I use MC100 XLR Mic too, and it's better than built-in but still under than normal volume.

is this normal?

I used XL1 and FX1, Z1 in my work awith their default setting
but there's no audio level problem.
so I think it's HVX's problem.

please help me...
 
1) Make sure you set the XLR input to mic level instead of line level for starters.

2) Make sure your mic is as close as possible to your audio source (within two feet preferably).
 
also be sure to use +48dB phantom power if your mic is not on batteries (but make sure it is supposed to work this way first, so you don't damage your gear)
