Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How can this be used with the LS 600c?

Q: 2. Can this be used with the Aputure 300x?

A: No, this Aputure 5-Pin Weatherproof Head Cable is only compatible with the LS600 series of lampheads by Aputure.

Q: 3. Is this the same cable that is used on the C300 Mark II?

A: The Canon 12-Pin to 12-Pin Servo Extension Cable for C500 Mark II & C300 Mark III (7.9") will work with the C300 Mark II.

Q: 4. Some of the original mini cables that came from Rode with their NT4 mikes had 12 dB pads built into the XLR5 connector. Does this cable have such pads in it? Or is it just straight wire from XLR to mini? I'm looking for one that doesn't have the resistive pads.

A: I bought this cable as a back-up for the one provided with my Audio-Technica stereo mic, and it's much less efficient, so I suspect that there is an unseen pad in the XLR, or the cable is simply more resistive. I'm returning it -- the signal into my Marantz digital recorder is too low.

Q: 5. Is it an XLR connection? Male Female?

A: This headset is designed to work with the Eartech Simultalk 24G, which have proprietary connectors.

Q: 6. What brand are the connectors on this cable? I have a cable that comes from Rode for my nt4 and it has black, no-name connectors, that seem to want to pull apart when you remove it from the mic. Concerning.

A: Rode has not specified a brand name for the XLR connectors. For another cable option with 5-pin XLR female to two 3-pin XLR male, you may want to consider the Remote Audio 5-Pin Stereo XLR Female to Dual XLR Male Y-Cable (B&H #RECAXSTE25) which is 25' long and uses Neutrik connectors with Mogami cable. The same Remote Audio cable is also available in 18" length (B&H #RECAXSTE). We also have the Sony 5-Pin to Dual 3-pin XLR Cable for ECM-680S (B&H #SO5P3PXSGC) which is 16" long and shows Neutrik connectors in the photo.

Q: 7. Is this a universal V-mount plate, or does this only work with IDX batteries?

A: Universal. I've used a few other V-mount brands on this plate.

Q: 8. It says its compatible with IDX. Can I charge IDX Duo batteries? Or will they fit?

A: Yes, there should be no issues with these IDX batteries.

Q: 9. I have a rode Na1-2 mic and was wondering if a XRL to 3.5 mm jack would let me use the mic with my Macbook pro? thanks!

A: You would want a female XLR end for the mic, so a XVM-101F, but it could technically work if your computer has a 3.5mm mic input. Best regards, Hosa support.
