Hi, your presentation is the most professional I ever seen - Thanks!

That's why I believe you can help me out with my problem:

I just bought the Sennheiser G2 and the problem is that the signal from the receiver goes only to the left channel.

My seller is trying to convince me that this is normal behavior, because Sennheiser is a MONO system.

Is it normal behavior? Or the receiver is defective?

The details of my setup are here:

Please answer!

@vadim367 Thanks. The Sennheiser G2 is a mono system. Most folks take the mono signal and Pan it center so it comes out both the Left and Right speakers. It depends on your camera/mixer recorder. As shown in the video, I will hard pan the signal Left and record with Lower levels than on the Right side, then I'll pick the best of the two tracks in post.

I used this tut a few years ago and I never had to re-adjust my mics. Now I have new mics because of the FCC ruling and here I am again! Thank you, twice!

@A5runner Thanks for watching, twice :)

@dvestore Thank you very much for the answer!

So, my receiver is not defectiv!? It's the most important for me now.

What do you mean by "Pan it center"?

Is that special setup cable?

I have an idea to get a mono-to-stereo cable: the mono jack into receiver and the stereo jack into camera (Canon 60D)

But I can not find the cable like that no where:(

Hi,

I have purchase the Sennheiser G2 on eBay, and after setting everything up (using your tutorial), I got just Left Chanel working.

The seller, told me, that he called Sennheiser, and they say, that it's a MONO microphone and the signal goes either to the Left or Right chanel.

It does not sound to me good.

Can you please confirm that G2 is MONO or STEREO???

Thanks
