Simple…. On the DR60 record as a stereo file with mic 1 plugged into ch1 and mic 2 plugged into ch2, this then gives a stereo file that is then mixed in post production in your computer.
-
A suggestion for the future, keep the mics on separate tracks for as long as you can, by crash mixing the mics on site very much limits what you can do with the recorded material.

Well I’ve run out of ideas , unless it is repeatable.

Yes I’m aware that it’s ending up as one track. But when the first section was recorded were there 2 mics or just one mic plugged in?
-
So the first part of the track was done with 2 mics or just one mic plugged in?
The second part was done with 2 mics or one mic plugged in?I get the feeling that there is something your not telling us….

There is a phase switch at the point just after “in the morning for us” has it gone through any sort of editing?
Something changed….. even the dialogue doesn’t flow -
What sort of mics?
Positioned how far from the people speaking?
Did you listen to each microphone as a single mic or were you listening to the mix of both mics?
Did you mix to mono on site or recorded them as separate tracks and then mono’d them in post prod?
Have you ever tested your mic cable wiring are they correct ie; pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, and pin 3 to pin 3?
Are they pro made cables or DIY cables?Any or some of these could be the problem……
My gut feeling is it a 180deg phase problem, if you still have the recording as 2 separate tracks phase reverse just one track (either one … ) then try to mono mix it and see if that makes a difference.

Errrr its probably recorded low on purpose…. Don’t you hate the ‘on hold’ messages so loud compared to the human on the line.
A different approach is get a copy of the message/s drop them into an audio edit program, bump up the level, then put it back onto the MP3 player at the new higher level….. simple
Any audio edit program will do it, Audacity is a good ‘free’ program if you need it.

Welcome to split system DSLR video production……..
That’s why I like shooting to a video camera with its audio embeded into the video.

You have the used the h/phone -line out of the H4n…. what was the volume set at?
When playing back an audio file from the H4n you will often notice the ‘live’ inputs also loop to the output. You will need to disconnect the input or switch to another input that is silent for best results.
What microphone are you using on the H4n?
