Let me start this by saying that the bad reviews need to be read from a very skeptical viewpoint. It sounds like most of the bad reviews were written by people who had purchased this for a mic that needs a different type of cable, or who don't understand the wiring of this cable and it's intended function. With only one exception, this cable is NOT designed for a stereo camera. That exception being a stereo microphone that uses a male 3-pin XLR jack to output an unbalanced, stereo feed across pins 2 and 3 (with pin 1 being ground). Excepting that very rare microphone type, this should not be used for a stereo camera.

This cable is a BALANCED cable. It is designed for Balanced XLR microphones (pretty much any professional microphone) to connect to a camera or device that uses a BALANCED 1/8" TRS microphone input jack. It is wired Pin 1 to Sleeve, Pin 2 to tip, and Pin 3 to Ring. Again, it should not be used for anything with a stereo input on a 1/8" TRS jack.

For those people wanting to use a professional XLR microphone with a stereo camcorder, you need to search for a mono XLR to Stereo 1/8" TRS cable. I have one, that I purchased from Amazon and it works very well for my stereo cameras. This is not that cable.

Now, that said, Here's my review... It does what it is supposed to do. I don't really know what else to say. I purchased this to use with my T2i running Magic lantern that allows the use of balanced mics on the external input. When I run my T2i with the mic jack as a stereo input, I have to use my other adapter or my stereo microphone with it's own cable. The wiring seems fine, though a little on the fragile side. With normal home/amateur use, this will work fine.

If you are using a source microphone that is MONO, you will have some grounding issues with this adapter. It is specifically designed to work with microphones that are listed as stereo since it is wired to take stereo signals and split them to the inner and outer ring on the 1/8" end of the adapter.

If you go to the Hosatech website, you will see this particular description:

"This cable is designed to a connect a stereo microphone with a single XLR output to a mini stereo phone input. It is ideal for connecting a shotgun mic to a DV camera."

Just because you have a shotgun mic does not mean that it is a stereo microphone. And just to repeat the description in Amazon, "certain Stereo Microphones that use a single XLR as output for both Left and Right signals."

If you are using a MONO microphone, you are looking for the XVM102F. To try to help clear things up even more, notice the difference between XVM (M for MONO) and XVS (S for STEREO).

An example of some microphones that would work quite well with this particular adapter are the Nady CM-2S Stereo Condenser Microphone and the TASCAM TM-STPRO Stereo Condenser Microphone.

I have the Nady myself, and this adapter works quite well with hooking it up to a portable digital recorder as well as my wife's digital camera. It handles the stereo separation quite nicely.

Good luck!

This adapter cable for stereo mics to work with small DV cameras will function but with caveats.

First, it's construction is pretty light weight. That means you will have to be "gentle" with it when using it. That's something none of us in the broadcast production field want to worry about since our gear gets pretty beat up.

Second, the adapter only has a one foot in length cable on it. This is pretty short and may not reach to wherever the mic input jack is on your camera. That means you would need another short XLR mic cable to extend from the mic to this adapter.

So just be aware that this may work fine for some and not work at all for others. I went to Sam Ash music and found a similar adapter cable, heavy duty, and with a longer cable for the same price. It pays to shop around!

The cable looks like it will work on stereo but most mics you are only going to get a hot signal on only one side. I sent it back and got another one it was that same way.. I already have a mono cable that's why I was buying the stereo cable to save time in post. This cable will not work or do that. the one foot size is not the cable but the hold thing and it's almost to short. I have a stero cable that works great but it's six feet thus why I bought this one thinking it would work too. will not work on Sony FRD-AX33 4K camera with the shotgun mic I have

I needed an inexpensive way to connect a microphone to my computer and this device was perfect. I was able to record into both Pro Tools and Audition with no issues.

Bought this for my Canon T2i. Utilizing the magic lantern hack to turn off AGC, I used this with my Azden SGM 2X shotgun mic. Works perfect and great quality.

This is what you will want to connect a "good mic" to your DSLR. Most of the best mics are XLR and most of the best prosumer camera's are 3.5mm (also call 1/8th inch).

The right angle on the 3.5mm end makes it less likely to get hung up on something, or damage the jack on your camera.

This is well made, has held up well, and works as advertised. Great price as well.
