In-camera sync of mixed sound, with Zoom H4N digital audio recorder
I use a Sescom LIN2mic-Zoom H4N cable with headphone monitor jack ($35) to avoid having to do audio syncing in post as much as possible, even when using XLR inputs from the H4N to get the best sound quality from external microphones.
Recently I’ve adopted a dual wireless lav system for capturing conversational audio from athletes and during interviews,linked to the Zoom on Channels A and B of the Audio Technica 88 units to prevent interference. The DAR is set to Stereo mode if the Zoom’s XY mics aren’t employed.
Don’t forget the windscreens!
