Stereo recording? Will it record in stereo if I record with an external stereo microphone?

Yes, and it works nicely. Plug in a mic, and the camcorder asks you to select between microphone, headphones, or AV-out (for non-hdmi tvs); it can't automatically distinguish what is plugged in. If you leave the mic plugged in, you will have to answer this question each time the camcorder is powered on. I used a Sony ECM-DS30P Electret Condenser Digital Microphone and it sounded great on my large screen LCD TV.

Good question. I don't think it matters. For true stereo you need two mikes. I use Audacity software with windows and can record stereo, but that seems to be a software configuration.

It is stereo. It's also surprising how on many of these microphones they don't disclose the fact that they are stereo. It's as if it is assumed. I have not used it to record live music, but I think it would be terrific. I'm very impressed with the good sound quality and the direct to disk recording is essential. Get the version that takes the micro USB card.

The microphone is a dual mono microphone and thus not stereo, unless you get into the very expensive stereo microphones I think you'll be pleased with the frequency response and quality. Once plugged in, the on-board microphone is cancelled out.

There is a microphone line in. You can take out a cable with the same size jacks from the CD player's earphone to the cassette. I presume it will be recorded as mono rather than stereo.

Yes it will, it uses the 1/8 inch mini jack which is the same as the 3.5 mm . If the recorder is set to mono, it will only record from one side of the mic, but if set to stereo it will record in stereo. You can use it either way.

There are no microphones in this unit! The only recording you can do is from the radio to cassette, CD to cassette, or the auxiliary to cassette. It has no way of recording outside music. i hope this helps!

HI, It does NOT have an external stereo microphone or headphone mini-jack, ...

It will record anything but will the result satisfy your own higher expectations for music, that the recording sounds like the performance itself? I doubt that. You want to look into other solutions from Blue Microphones and others if you want optimum fidelity in a good acoustic environment, that you gladly present for others to hear.

I recommend you read the manual. I'm using this unit for stereo recordings, but I believe there's a mono setting which would do that. Keep in mind there are only 4 XLR Powered connections

Yes.The camera comes with a 'stereo' mic jack for external mics (next to an accessory terminal).

Also known as a 3.5mm jack or a headphone jack, this will definitely work. It only records on one channel (not stereo sound).

This is for two channel stereo output only, which is how most music is recorded. You will have to determine if your sound unit has a stereo output option.

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.

Hello Alyssa, while the Vantec USB External 7.1 Adapter is no longer my daily driver, I did double check to make sure and yes, it does have a stereo mix type option available to use on recording devices. Hope this helps. I have attached a screenshot to show you, http://prntscr.com/5ldhwp and http://prntscr.com/5ldigs Cheers, R.

Yes. You can select Merge (as opposed to overwrite or append) as a recording option - which is effectively overdubbing the original stereo (2-ch) recording with another. Makes it destructive though, in that sense. HTH

Yes, so long as your digital voice recorder has an input for an external microphone
