This is exactly what I did, but it doesn't work as described in my first post. I use Sennheiser lavaliers or a Sennheiser boom mic (ME66) with the juicedlink. They work perfect without ML installed, which means that the levels on the camera and the levels on the pre-amp are identically once balanced. With ML this is not possible.

I do interviews and dialog scenes (mostly documentary) or normal 'action' scenes from reality for whatever kind of videos.

Yes I did, but changing the analog gain (first step after 0db is 10db) adds also a lot of background noise. And because of the huge steps between, it seems a fine tuning as in the Canon Menu is impossible. How do you adjust the cameras ML Audio settings to match the external microphone or pre-amp? The information in the menu says it should stay as low as possible with an external pre-amp...

As stated on these other thread I opened: http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=5186.0 I have serious problems to use ML when I need audio recording. I simply can't make use of it, messed up an important work for a client and now had to uninstall it completely.

I understand that ML overrides the manual adjustments of the Canon Audio settings. But where do I adjust the audio levels in the ML menu (independently of the use of external mic, pre-amp or internal mic,... there should be an exactly same menu settings as in the canon menu, shouldn't it)? I simply do not find it...

Nobody else is using ML with audio recording??? I really want to solve this problem. Anyone please?

Thanks a1ex. I didn't know that. So how should I adjust the audio in the ML menu?
Without ML, I have the gain one step above zero. How can I do that on ML? The only menu setting I see is the Analog Gain, but from 0db it goes straight to 10db...

I insist that it is still weird, since when I connect the JuiceLink and I have it on -12db, the camera records almost nothing. If you are right, then I should also have to calibrate the camera again within the ML menu to get -12db on the JuiceLink and -12db on the camera, right?

My 60D doesn't use AGC. The audio is completely manual on this camera.

Hi guys,

I have an issue with Magic Lantern and my 60D, but can not find anyone with the same problem. Anyway, I hope there is someone out there who can help me in this forum.

Since I installed ML my audio levels are recording really really low with the internal or an external mic (rode pro, sennheiser lavalier or sennheiser ME66), with or without preamplifier (JuicedLink) as a bridge. (Also, the ML meters are indicating approximately 25db below of what JuicedLink is indicating.) The weird thing is, when I check the levels in the Canon menu and adjust it on -12db everything looks good, but it actually records -40 to -55db! The wave forms look very small too in Final Cut Pro. Basically, the audio is completely messed up.

I didn't had this problems before ML and just to test, I now deleted the tool on one of my SD Cards. The problem is gone and my 60D records again without problems as it should.

I did not alter any settings in the audio menu of ML. Everything is off or on 0db (gains). Is there something I am missing?
