    I have a UCR211 receiver that I need to mate up to a betacam back. Mic level is preset on this betacam to -60dBu. The UCR range is -50 to +10. What would be the best match for this setup?

    I don’t know for certain, but I would start with -20 at UCR211 and see what kind of levels you get at the camera. If you are still cranking the gain at the camera, then up the mic output of the UCR to -10 and check the levels. Just keep adjusting until you have a usable range on level control on your camera.

    I hope this is clear – my kids are yelling in the background…

    Or, call Lectro tomorrow and ask their advice. Then let us know what they said.
