Adapter Xlr
How can I connect a lav mic to my camcorder if I don’t have an XLR connection?
I was thinking of using an 1/8″ phone jack to female XLR adapter. would that work?
You did not tell us which camcorder.
If your camcorder has a 1/8″ (3.5mm) audio in jack and your external mic uses an XLR connector, then yes, using that “tail” should work – but I would not recommend doing that. It is too easy to put too much starin on that and break the 1/8″ plug in the cacorder’s jack.
Use of an XLR adapter (like those from juicedLink or BeachTek) is strongly recommended. They also have an added benefit of providing easy-to-get-to audio gain controls/knobs and provide a mono/stereo switch so if your lavaliere mic is mono (and recording to only one channel in the camcorder when connected using the “tail”), move the switch on the XLR adapter to stereo and record the same audio to both channels.
