Yes. They bite into that a bit. I monitored the sound and it didn’t evidence any distortion.
Monitor setting was in the middle…not at max. I usually record mono feeds with one down slightly to take care of any surprises.
What I noticed in setting up, however, was that even though I would turn one channel completely down on the unit, it didn’t go away. It seemed there is some agc at work here or I’ve got a setting wrong in the configuration.
Of course in previous shoots where I am feeding an image through SDI, sound is embedded and is controlled from the camera. In this case I was splitting the feed to the betacam (recording as a back up and the KiPro. -
Just at the place where the LED begins to go orange (-20?).

Thanks.
This does make sense.

Right, so it’s an issue to be dealt with in FCP, not the Ki Pro, correct?

Actually in answer to my own question, maybe one of these ups units that are the footprint of a
surge protector/power strip would work.https://www.a1securitycameras.com/Minuteman-Para-Systems-EN400.html
I think in the field we’ll probably be working from batteries and have plenty of warning before they go down. But this is definitely a vulnerability to be worked. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could design a ups that is integral to the transformer, or the plug.

Thanks Sony.
This was a quick response and really appreciated.
I’ve done a quick test with ShotPut Pro and it works. Looks like we’re back in business. -
That’s good news.
It’s wonderful to see that our rants have had such a positive effect on such a responsive and esteemed company : > -
Maybe Sony will take care of the problem quicker than they’ve indicated. I’ve been a Sony user for much of my career. I’m surprised by the delay. This doesn’t follow the usual pattern.

>>Where can you see and hear it? On the Z1’s lcd?
YES
>>Do you have deck control over the FW cable?
YES
>>Under the Menu setings of the Z1 in VCR mode, Scroll down to IN/OUT REC (the 2 arrows) and ensure >>you’re in DV mode or auto for the VCR output. Check that the A/V-DV out is ON.
I tried it in “auto” and “DV”, and checked the other parameters. All was where it should be in the camera.
>>Failing that, try a different FW cable. If still no luck, try a different deck/camera if you can. I know >>that at least one of our Z1’s has a hookey FW out.
The cable and connector have been working fine up til now. I’m going to try my (or Nick’s) DSR-25 and see if that works. If that doesn’t work, I’ll try component in through an AJA unit to another computer.
Pretty weird. It’s supposed to work.
