I think the Rode is high impedance, so you need more than an adapter you need an actual impedance matching transformer to get good sound, but something else is amiss if you are getting NO sound. Have you tried both mic inputs? The switches are definitely set correctly? Levels are up? Brook On Thu,

The recording levels, if I remember correctly the two level dials are below the mic routing switches. A common "no sound" error is to have the mic plugged into, say, mic input one while the switches have input two routed to both channels. Or vice versa. It's usually a switches thing. Brook On Th

I'm pretty sure you should be able to use the Rode with the DVX using the adapter - there are people talking about doing this OK in forums, if you google. Assuming that it *should* work, the only thing that will get you there is systematic trial and error testing of each device. First thing,

Don't forget that the Rode is a stereo mic, so the adapter has to be wired to take this into account. Some mono 1/8 to XLR adapters won't work. Also, there will be an impedance mismatch unless you use an adapter with an impedance matching transformer. On Thu, 24 Apr 2008 12:12 pm, Rupert wrote
