Guys,
Our first Sundance video is stalled from being released because of a
critical issue that I don't know how to fix! I bought us a new mic to
use on the road...it's a handheld Shure that uses an XLR input. I step
that down to the 1/8" plug on the camera.
The audio sounds beautiful "in the ca
Hi Rhett --
Sounds like phase cancellation to me. Simply put, when the polarity
is reversed on one channel of a stereo recording, and the recording
is summed to mono, then the peaks of one waveform coincide with the
valleys of the other waveform and they wind up cancelling each other
out.
Philip,
Thanks for the very clear treatment of this information. I didn't know
so much about XLR phase inversion in the signal, but I had started to
figure that the problem was due to the way things were getting combined,
so I did a "Fill From Left" channel, and that had fixed it. Now I know
the
Mr. Clark is absolutely correct.
