Does the unit have to be recording to pass thru the audio? want to use this as an audio adapter for my camera but I don't want to record separately.

i believe so. i use it in podcasting and will often times have it in record ready mode - my words not theirs - you can depress the record button one and it flashes red which enables the audio feed to pass through the line out or headphones jack. good luck

No, you can pass it through and record to your camera. I had to do this once when I forgot to bring enough SD cards. HOWEVER, the Tascam will turn off 20-30 minutes after no activity (recording) so keep that in mind.

Here is the information from the operations guide: "This unit has provided special AUX IN jack, through this jack other audio sources can be connected to this unit and be amplified". That sounds (pardon the pun) like it might apply to a supplemental microphone. There is a built-in condenser mic. There are no instructions for recording from an external source.

Hopefully I'm understanding the question correctly, but if you're using an external recorder for your primary audio, it won't matter a bit. This thing is on the output side of that device. If you're putting it between a pre-amp of some sort like a JuicedLink or whatever, then there might be some loss. On the other hand, if you want good audio, the in-camera recorder isn't the place to get it anyway.

Yes. You will have to connect it through a pre-amp to your recording device.

I know that Sony sells a separate microphone and that is considered the external mic. This unit records perfectly without it.

Hi Amazon Customer, this Sony CCDTRV43 uses an A/V connecting cables (yellow and red) for video and audio. You may check your funai recorder is it supports this kind of connection. -Ely

I don't see why you couldn't connect it if you have a 3.5 mm adapter, although I have never done that before. Not sure how it sounds when recording but to give you a suggestion, you might want to look for a different product because to me it doesn't seem like a good choice if you're trying to record a voice or something else. It's mostly good for live situations, like if you're plugging it into an amp to have a jam session. Hope this helps!

It would work as a recorder, since it would connect to the TV just fine. It should work as well as it did on the component plugs going directly into the TV. The USB power is what powers the unit. It runs off the TV (if you have an USB connector there - that's what we did). It won't work without being powered by the USB connection. You can buy an adaptor that goes from the USB connection to a plug that can be plugged in, but you will need something to power it.

It would record properly thru the mic only. Any input via line-in was distorted. I first thought it may be the cable, but tried another cable with same results.

If your signal is mono, it will only record as mono. You can split the signal into two channels, but it's still going to be mono

Yes it can record audio as well, and you can here it remotely too if you want. Best camera setup I have ever had!

If this camera has a built in microphone you would be able to receive audio signals but not send audio signals to it . If it does not have a built in microphone you can use an external one. For this to take place you will need one of these: VCR,DVD or DVR recorder.

Yes, this will record audio. The quality is just satisfactory in my opinion. But this camera will not do a loop recording, as claimed. Once the memory card is full, it will stop recording, the reason why I returned this unit.

yes, the camera records audio . it is pretty cheap, but i have discovered that the camera sometimes doesn't record the video for some reason. if i tried to click on the video the computer tells me that the video is damaged. i had that problem for a while after that i bought CR 500HD, and I use it until now. i recommend to buy CR 500HD from blackboxmycar.com. i hope i have answered all your questions and if you have more questions, please feel free to email me back

Yes, audio recording has its own on/off function. But overall, I don't recommend this device.
