Movo MV-RC100 3.5mm Male Line-in to Male Microphone Attenuator Cable for HDSLR Cameras

I have had this attenuator cable for 9 months and use it frequently. I wrote this review on the spur-of-the-moment, because I have used it many times over the last few days to record music on my Tascam recorder directly from my laptop headphone jack and wanted to share my thoughts. It is terrific. The 35 dB attenuation balances the output with the mic input to provide easy recording with no distortion. It's simple and effective. If you record any audio from devices such as TV, stereo, etc. and have to fiddle around to balance the output with the input, this cable will make your life a lot easier. Simply plug and play at normal volume and mic gain settings.

This works great, as I can now set my audio levels on my camera at a decent level without introducing noise into the camera's audio recording, and also have a backup recorder from my Zoom H4N Pro or Zoom H6 in a WAV! I was using 3.5mm speaker cables before this and not only where they long and cumbersome, but I would have to set my audio levels in camera at 1 just to barely avoid peaking, and then turn the volume out down on the recorder/mic source. I then used an XLR LINE-TO-MIC attenuater capsule but that involved adapting this 3.5mm cables to XLR and was too much of a fuss. This cable from Movo not only works great, but it's the perfect size for my rigs. I will probably buy another at some point as I outfit other cameras. I like that if I split the LINE-OUT of a unit like the Zoom H4N Pro, I can use this cable to send a good audio level to my camera - thus reducing my work in post - as well as monitor the audio if I'm using a camera like the Sony a6300 that doesn't have a headphone jack.

Worked very well with my again

Actual internal connections and resistances: GNDs are connected (sleeve to sleeve). On the one I got the black plastic end is labeled line level and you send your strong line level signal into that end. The black metal looking end on mine is labeled camera, and that's the attenuated output signal of the internal voltage dividers. Separate voltage divider for tip and sleeve:2K ohms Line Tip to Cam Tip, andanother 2K ohms Line Ring to Cam Ring.Then there's 200 ohms from Cam Tip to GND, and another 200R from Cam Ring to GND. Schematic attached, identical for tips or sleeves (there are 4 resistors inside this cable.)

Me ayudo con un problema de ruido que tenia cuando queria conectar la salida en linea de la zoom f6 a la entrada de la sony fx30

I use a Saramonic SR-R1 recording device for recording AM radio programming. The line out signal levels of both of my radios were too high, producing distorted audio, even with recorder input level set to minimum.Based on the reviews, I decided to give this a try, and I'm amazed at the result. With recorder input level set midway, recorded audio sounds very good.Attenuation levels and dB specs aren't easy to understand without a degree in audio engineering, but I can say that this item solved my audio level overload issue, and I'd recommend it for that purpose.

We use these line to mic cables to connect HDMI recorder to mixers for conference recording. They provide 40db drop and are noise free. Well made they should hold up. A bit pricey for most application, you can make one with a couple of resistors,but if you are not dab handed with a soldering iron they are worth it.

I bought this to connect my phone to a little Sony sound recorder's microphone jack. It works perfectly. I was concerned that the level into the microphone jack might be too high or too low, but it just works. I'm delighted, and recommend this wholeheartedly. (PS -- it's designed to be connected to a camera; I don't know whether it works for that application or not, but it works great for what I bought it for!)
