Hey All,
Have just powered up the Behringer XENYX502 Mixer.
For those who are interested, the Red 3.5mm Stereo Male Plug on the Califone Headphone/Microphone Set IS, as Mr. Terfyn said, the Microphone.
So far, everything is working as advertised.
The 2-Track IN must be working because the 2-Track OUT going to the Altec Lansing Speakers work GREAT. The feed to the Califone Headphones is also working properly.
The Panasonic Camcorder had not been turned on for quite a while, but the Battery that maintains the Time/Date in the Viewfinder, AND on the Seceptre X33 TV is still working, and keeping perfect time with The Scryer.
Next thing to do is to see if a Video Capture via the 1394 IEEE Firewire to The Scryer's HDD using either Windows Movie Maker or VideoMeld will also pick up the Audio sent from The Scryer to the XENYX502 Mixer and then on to the Panasonic Camcorder's Audio IN port through the attenuator Cable recommended by Mr. Terfyn and MarkE.
There is yet one more thing to get connected, and that is The Scryer to the Sceptre X33 TV so what has been recorded can be seen on both the Dell 27" Monitor, and the Sceptre TV.
Just on a whim, picked up the Panasonic Camcorder's Remote Controller, which had NEVER been used since the Camcorder was bought well over a decade ago, and wonder of wonders, it WORKS. It STILL has the ORIGINAL Battery! It even puts all the menus in the View Finder on the Sceptre X33 TV Screen. It also controls the Zoom IN and OUT. It also controls FADE IN, and FADE OUT, but think that THAT would only be if one were using the on-board MiniDV Cassette Deck.
In any case, am going to have to figure out the order of the routine that must be followed to 1) Get the Audio to play in a repeating loop. 2) Get the Video/Audio Capture set up with either Windows Movie Maker or VideoMeld. 3) Get The Crystalume operating in record mode. 4) Start the Capture. 5) Start performing with The Crystalume. And finally 6) Stop everything.
And now, would like to broach something that has caused some trepidation. It may or may not be necessary, but am just going to blurt it out anyway.
In an earlier post was posted a parody of a bit of the Lewis Carroll poem "The Walrus and the Carpenter" which goes:
"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--"
My parody of that goes:
"It's time to see," said the Manatee
"And rhyme with glee a variety:
Of Bats and Balls--and Bats with Wings--
Of Brussel Sprouts--and aging Queens--!"
The reason that I'm feeling trepidatious is because there has been no responses to this thread since THAT post. The thought occurred to me that maybe it was offensive! Twas not meant to offend. And as you can see, it was NOT a reference to The Queen of England (if THAT is still a proper term). Just let me say that if what was written DID offend, then my sincere apology is hereby tendered. Nuff said.
Anyway, spent the morning readying Ms. American 3.14159 for inspection early Monday morning before it gets too warm for me to be out. Then getting the XENYX502 up and running has rendered me about done for for today.
Hope this finds you all doing well.
Take care.
