Plugging in Audio
The SDI and HDMI inputs include audio, however there are also 2 additional analog audio
Blackmagic
inputs. The XLR audio input is a mono input that lets you plug in microphones. It's a single
Web Presenter
channel mono input because microphones are mono and when you connect to this balanced
XLR audio input the audio will be sent to both left and right audio channels internally. The
second analog audio input is a HiFi input using RCA connectors. This input is good for
computer audio or audio from a music source such as smartphone, music player, audio mixer or
even a CD player.
All audio sources will be connected to an internal stereo audio mixer and all blended together.
If you don't want audio to be included from any specific audio source, then please ensure you
disconnect the analog audio sources, or turn down audio from HDMI sources such as
computers. Otherwise any audio on any of the inputs will be blended together and sent to the
USB audio output.
