[QUOTE="mbraner, post: 730343, member: 48092"] Today I set out to record a short video of two people singing and playing music, using my D3300. To get good audio I used several mics and a mixer, I happen to have all that equipment on hand. The mystery to me, given almost no experience with DSLR video, was how to get the mixed audio into the camera. (I gather combining them in "post" is best but I don't yet have any decent software for that.) Turns out, a simple cable arrangement from the mixer output that ended with a 3.5mm plug into the camera (stereo, for the D3300) worked just fine, despite the mixer output being line-level. I turned the camera mic-sensitivity level to manual setting at its lowest ("1"), and adjusted the mixer output to a fairly low level (output level LEDs barely blinking), which the signal bars in the camera showed was OK.
