Q: 6. Will this cable work if I try to connect my Blackmagic Cinema Camera 2.5K or Production Camera 4K to a Zoom H6/Tascam DR-100 Mrk III for in camera audio capture while using these devices as microphones?

A: There are a few things that you'll need to do in order to run audio from a Tascam or Zoom recorder into one of these Blackmagic cinema cameras. After testing, we've discovered the cameras only support a true balanced audio signal. You may use the Hosa HMP-006Y cable to connect from an audio recorder into a line balancer such as the Ebtech LLS-2 (B&H# EBLLS2), at which point the audio signal will be compatible with what the camera is expecting. You would also need two balanced 1/4 cables. With all this said and done, frankly the best audio you will get will be the audio being recorded directly into the Zoom or Tascam recorder. If you plan on using the Blackmagic audio as a scratch audio track for reference, then you may consider moving forward with my suggestions.

A: Is this referring to the internal wiring? We don't readily have a spec for that, so if you are making any modifications, I would test each wire with a multimeter to the corresponding pin. Otherwise if there's an issue, we can replace it under lifetime warranty through info@hosatech.com. Best regards, Hosa Support.

Q: 9. I bought this to use with Tascam DR-40 and Audio Technica AT8024. The input level is too low for recording even with maxed out preamp level. How do I use this combo? Is this adapter right for AT8024?

A: The Tascam DR-40 only accept mic level devices via its XLR inputs. This adapter is incorrect. To connect the AT8024 in mono to the recorder, you would require an XLR adapter such as the Kopul A-XMMF. To use the mic in stereo, you will need a stereo mini to dual XLR Y cable such as the Kopul SMYC-M2XM06 and then an additional 3.5mm stereo turnaround adapter to connect to the mic. See the Hosa Technology GMM303.

Q: 10. Is this cable meant to split a stereo signal into separate left and right channels, or does it send the same stereo signal across both left and right? The word 'stereo' in the title and the fact that the 1/4 ends are color coded is whats confusing me.

A: This cable features a stereo 3.5mm jack that splits to 2 mono 1/4 connectors. There are a few uses for this cable. If you feed the 3.5mm jack a stereo signal it will give you left on one of the 1/4 jacks and right side on the other.
