great product Super Happy

This is exactly what I was looking for. Great product for many reasons. The build quality seems amazing. Good weight and all knobs and buttons feel nice and tight. Comes with everything you need to connect to your camera including cable and tripod adapter. Of course, the two biggest features are the ability to connect multiple microphones to this device and then output audio directly to the camera (where you can adjust the volume of each device/microphone) or directly to an audio recorder. The…

It serves its purpose and is well built

I'm a professional videographer, so I understand that your audio is just as important as your video. I have multiple cameras and some have XLR inputs that allow me to connect two mics and control the audio at the same time. I also have a few cameras that don't allow me to do that.

The included cold shoe mount wasn't…

Good build, works well

I've had the AX1 for a few months and have found it to work as advertised. I have no major complaints and as an enthusiast it does pretty much everything I bought it for. It's great for taking two (TRS) mics, like a lavalier and a shotgun, and mixing them into a (TRS) audio input for my camera. I really like the headphone jack which allows me to preset and/or control audio levels. I mainly used my iPhone which is notorious for its poor sound quality. I usually set up the AX1 to accept a mic…
