TASCAM CA-XLR2d-N XLR Microphone Adapter Kit for Nikon Cameras

Capture high-quality, low-noise recordings from your favorite XLR microphone directly to your Nikon camera with the TASCAM CA-XLR2d-N XLR Microphone Adapter Kit for Cameras. This version includes an accessory shoe that uses the Nikon Multi-Accessory Shoe to provide a wireless digital audio connection to the camera, preventing any deterioration in sound quality and eliminating the need to synchronize images and audio in post-production.

The accessory shoe also allows the camera to power the analog-to-digital converter adapter and the 48V phantom power required for condenser microphones. Two AA batteries power the unit, and the 3.5mm output jack connects to the 3.5mm audio input on almost any camera using the included cable, meaning the CA-XLR2d-N can function as an analog audio adapter with a wide range of mirrorless/DSLR cameras. The audio output can also double as a headphone jack for real-time monitoring in the field. Select the best microphone for your application

Choose the microphone or input that best suits your application. From a single shotgun mic for interviews or dialogue, to two dynamic or condenser mics for stereo imaging, or the entire audio mix from the main mixer using the line-level capability, the CA-XLR2d-N supports a wide variety of recording applications.

HDDA microphone preamp for high sound quality with low noise and wide dynamic range

The CA-XLR2d-N features a discrete architecture, high-definition microphone preamp that can process everything from ambient tones to explosions, making it suitable for a wide range of sets and environments. Each input supports mic/line switching and +48 V phantom power. The CA-XLR2d-N allows the input of dynamic microphones, condenser microphones, and line-level audio signals from a mixer.

Designed for a High Degree of Freedom

A cold shoe on the top panel expands setup flexibility. The shock-absorbing mechanism resists vibration and noise and allows for the connection of a variety of microphones. With two XLR-1/4" combo input connectors and a 3.5mm stereo microphone input jack, the CA-XLR2d-N offers the flexibility to adapt to the necessary equipment and work in a wide variety of shooting scenarios. A 3.5mm output terminal with headphone mode offers latency-free direct monitoring or connection to an analog camera.

Onboard processing with intuitive control for clean, clear recordings

Internal processing options such as auto level, a low-cut filter, and a limiter are integrated, all via convenient switches. The LINK 1+2 function allows simultaneous adjustment of the L/R volume while recording in stereo. The unit supports 16/24-bit and 48/96 kHz sampling rates.
