Mic destortion when connected to DVR

Recommended Posts

I have installed Dome camera in one of our room along-with a Mic, the voice was perfectly clear when i heard it directly into my TV (through A/V). But when i upgraded to recording, now connecting it to a DVR's Audio in & hearing it through TV, the voice is not even getting through but only distortion. Please let me know the solution..

Microphones come in different forms. Is the mic built into the camera or external and plugged into the dome? I'll guess that your mic is a lower voltage external one (not built into the camera) but the DVR is expecting a powered mic. Depends what you mean by "distortion" I guess. Normally I think a powered mic is being plugged into something that expects less signal when I think distortion rather than static, but a built-in mic from a dome camera that would normally be plugged into a DVR _should_ output properly. It'd help to know exactly what cam, mic, etc you're using. If the dome doesn't have its own mic, try getting a cctv microphone like one on this page- http://www.etsnm.com/microphones.html
