Not Hearing Ch 2 In Phones

Hey Folks,

I did test last night with my shotgun plugged into the front xlr and a condenser mic plugged into ch 2 at the rear of the HPX300. The mic is tubed and has it's own interface so it does not need 48v.

I see the Ch 2 volume on the LCD and it does record. Problem is that I only hear the shotgun through the headphone jack. The cam is set to front volume to ch 1. Auto volume control is on and Ch1/2 and Ch2/3 switches are on. Ch 2 is set to rear channel with the physical switch on the side of the cam.

Again, Ch 2 does record and shows up on the meter but I do NOT hear it in the phones while in pause. Since I was in front of the camera, I do not know if Ch 2 is alive in the phones during record.

Any ideas?,

Hm, okay. Set the Monitorswitch 1 to middle position (ST) and the second switch to channel 1/2. That should work. In the Audio-menu you can also switch between Mix and Stereo monitoring. Set it to stereo, so you hear channel 1 on the left earphone and channel 2 on the right earphone.

Yessir, That did it. Would not think "Stereo" would be necessary as what we have is two Mono channels (multi mono is not stereo). Lost in translation, perhaps?

This config also turns on the speaker. Anybody found a way to have the speaker off and still be able to use phones? Of course the speaker mutes when the phones are in but I would like it off.

Thanks for the help,
Robert
