  5. Camcorder - hallway in the back of auditorium

We used auditorium B102 at CAD3. There wasn’t a mixer, so we connected the cabe XLR from the translation room output direct to the voctomix desktop input.

The camcorder had only a 3.5mm jack for sound input and It didn’t accept the connection from the output because it was necessary to use a mixer. I tried to use there my mixer Behringer Henyx Q1002USB but it didin’t work. Later, I tested at my home and it worked.
