I will be recording an interview with a Sony EX3 camera. The producer
wants an MP3 transcription, with audio on ch1 and timecode on audio ch
2. The set up is this. I will lav and boom the speaker, and send 2
seperate tracks to camera. I use a Sound Devices 422 mixer. I will
also send one of these channels to ch 1 on my Zoom recorder. Now, if
I take the Timecode out of the camera and send it to ch2 on the Zoom,
I have been warned that the level will be so hot that the timecode
track might bleed onto channel 1 of the zoom as well. Does anybody
use this type of set up? My idea is to send the camera timecode
signal through a second mixer, changing the hot line level to a mic
level, and then on to the Zoom. Would a 50db inline pad work as well?

Thanks
