I like to video tape concerts (with band permission) as well as audio recording at concerts. With my video tape the sound is too loud for the camcorder microphone so I end up clipping. What suggestions do you have as to how I can get good sound on the camcorder? It's a Sony TRV22.
I have been recording in with my minidisc and then running out the headphone out through an attenuator cable into the mic in on the video camera. The problem there is that my connections are not real clean and I often end up with a lot of static on one channel of the audio on the video tape. |

Another answer can be to use a simple mic pre-amp to attenuate the volume before it gets to the camera...
I also believe that I read somewhere that Sony has some type of resistor "attenuator" you can attach to the camera to control the sound... If you're going to be editing your video for any purpose... The final - And I believe most professional solution - would be to bring your MiniDisk or some other audio device and record the audio directly to THAT - Then mix them together upon completion... Most digital gear now is clean and stable enough to provide a good sync almost without any timing... And if you're going to be cutting up your video anyway - It'd be nice to have the best possible audio available... Hope this helps... -------------------- |
