All the features you need for connecting, controlling and monitoring the audio
Built-in Low/Good/Over level indicators make it easy to verify the signal levels at a glance, while the trim controls allow you to adjust the output signal for optimum recording.

- ALEXA Mini: BT-LEMO (5-pin XLR to 5-pin LEMO)
- ALEXA Mini LF:BT-LF (5-pin XLR to 6-pin LEMO)

Audio Bracketing
Setup a Second Channel for Backup
A very useful feature allows you to use audio bracketing when using a single mono microphone to have a backup channel that is recorded at a lower level. This gives you a safety track in case the primary channel gets distorted from an overly hot input.

Built-in thumbscrew with 1⁄4” / 20 mounting bolt to easily attach to any threaded hole. Can also be attached to a hot shoe via the removeable brass mounting foot. Three built-in 1⁄4” / 20 threaded inserts allow you to attach multiple accessories
