Cheers Brain,
Is it possible to use a small mixer or VU meter to attach to the camera and the let camera guy monitor two lines of audio?
Then take a look at a good mixer Sound Devices 444 would be great (4 in’s / 2 outs).
and run the two outs to one of the cameras.To your response how would one camera be able to receive all four lines of audio?

Thanks guys,
I do understand that I need to be more exact about what questions I am asking. At this stage I’m still in the dark about budgets and the rest.
I just wanted to know what was a bare minium to achieve good results. From my experience I find it hard to mix/monitor two tracks of audio while filming on the run, by the time you hear the audio over peak it’s too late to do anything about it??
Although it is for a community Tv channel I still what to achieve the best results I can with a limited budget.
Hiring equipment looks like it might be a better idea?
Can you recommend equipment if I could hire anything i wanted??
Thanx for your help,(hopefully i can get some more exact numbers and sizes of crews shortly)
