Professional Recording

The Tascam CA-XLR2d XLR Mic Adaptor is designed specifically to offer flexible, professional-level audio recording. And, with the three options available to purchase, whether your camera’s hot shoe cannot handle a digital audio signal nor power the Tascam mic adapter, you’re all set to elevate your film to the next level. The unit is a two-channel microphone adapter and a preamplifier enables the use of external microphones. The recorded signal is transferred directly to the camera and recorded along with the video signal.

Clear, Natural Sound

While excellent sound comes from the microphone you choose to use, the Tascam CA-XLR2d has a crucial part in producing enhanced and beautifully natural audio. Tascam, well known for their audio enterprise, have implemented their advanced audio technology and high-performance A/D converters that enable the capture of clear and natural sound. This is achieved by the audio signal being sent directly to the camera by the compatible accessory shoe, without any conversion that could result in distortion. As a result of this, you will not need to synchronise the sound and video in your post-production editing process.

Additional Features

Again, this unit has been enhanced to optimise your audio recording. It features built-In audio processing such as auto-level, low-cut filter and limiter (accessible via its convenient switches). And, the unit allows you to link two input channels that in turn allow you to control the input gain as well as the LEVEL and LIMITER settings for both left and right channels whilst recording in stereo. Finally, further increasing sound quality is Tascam’s pro-grade electronics, 16-bit/24-bit resolution and sampling frequencies of 48 kHz or 96 kHz, all of which add to that incredible sound.

FAQs:

Will my video and audio match up?

The audio recorded is transferred directly and recorded alongside the video. This reduces the need for synchronisation and post-production.

What microphone should I choose?

This is a choice that needs you to consider what type of recording you’re doing. A shotgun microphone is ideal for interviews or dialogue sequences. Or, you can use dual dynamic or condenser mics for stereo imaging. But rest assured, the Tascam CA-XLR2d is flexible enough to cater to a wide range of microphone options thanks to its top-mount cold shoe, two XLR/TRS input terminals and one 3.5-mm stereo mini input.
