what is the best way to record two wireless mics on a camcorder?

Q. I am looking for the best way possible to record, 2 wireless mics onto one camcorder. I have a BeachTek 4 with 2 xlr inputs. If anyone has a good method please tell me.

Thnks

A. Use the BeachTek... is this a trick question?

Mic base stations into the BeachTek; BeachTek into the camcorder's mic-in jack. That's how I connect my Shure lavalieres' base stations...

I guess it would help to know which mics and base stations and which camcorder...


When using an external wireless mic, should I use one or 2 channels on my camcorder?
Q. Im looking to get the Cleanest sound at a wedding.
My cam has XLR inputs but I dont know whats the correct procedure.
Its the first pro cam I have and I have no clue about sound

A. Too bad you did not tell us which camcorder.

A decent camcorder or camera with XLR inputs splits to left/right audio. There will be a selector near the XLR connectors on the camcorder that indicates "M"ono or "S"tereo.

If you have one mic plugged into only one audio channel and "S"tereo selected, then the audio will be recorded to that one side and the other side will have no audio. If you want, you can copy this single audio channel to the blank channel when you edit.

If you have one mic plugged into only one audio channel and "M"ono selected, then the same audio will be recorded to both sides.

Your question is a perfect example as to why you should PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE with the equipment you have BEFORE you arrive at the gig so you know what to expect when everything is ready to go and you press record. If you do not go and try this *NOW*, you are wasting the opportunity to learn how your equipment works.
