For anyone considering buying this product, be aware that it is not, in fact, a preamp at all (despite what some product listings state). It's just a mixer with phantom power, it does not boost the signal and thus there are multiple better options on the market, such as the cheaper Saramonic smartrig lineup, which does provide preamplification. Hope this helps

Benjie, you seem like a good guy Thanks for your review. It would really would be helpful if you didn't play your music bed during audio tests. Thanks.

Just a suggestion... Did you really post an audio test with continuous background music? How is anyone supposed to perceive the difference in S/N ratio? Guess you're going to do better next time ;)

Any idea how long on fully charged batt can run? (especially if the setup requires the device to provide fantom power)

not very long mate- max 2 1/2 hours or less for two channels running w/ fantom power

Nice vid thanks - I got one on the strength of the the vids ive seen. One doubt is the battery life. Fitted a standard battery and then a Duracell and the blue power light soon turned red. Do I understand that this is a battery low light when it turns red. There is nothing in the literature about it. If so this occurred after about an hour of use with the phantom power on. Although the light has turned red it appears to be still working ok. So any info would be grateful - many thanks.

Alan Broadbent thanks for watching, i did experienced the same thing from full battery (blue) to low (red), other than that it is very risky to gamble when it turns into red since i experienced one time when i was shooting a clip, i know that red is low but since its still on i kept on shooting- however when i reviewed the video- the sound became weak and eventually there was no audio on the video- ever since, whenever it turns red- i swap battery. i am currently hunting for A/C or direct current version since i enjoy this device alot

Hey Benjie, thank you so much for this informative video. I already bought saramonic prea amp and attached it directly to my canon rebel 2 with my rode videomic ntg. the problem is that my audio output on my video is very low, i mean the volume. Maybe you can help me to figure out this thing. My set up is like this, Camera- (manual) quarter volume, Saramonic- set it in mono plus 85% gain, VideomicNTG- 12 gain. Thank you so much!

interesting, i use my rode videomicro on it even on takstar sgc598 and both are functioning properly. its going to be a little challenging on your end since you do not have a spare mic-wire to determine if the saramonic or microphone is faulty. your rebel has dedicated mic port right?

jannes panggabean i do not own the pax2 but looks like the main difference is that the pax2 has lcd screen to monitor levels- pax1 does not have that, however pax1 is the newer of both audio adapter and much cheaper and lighter.

Hey man. Yes God is good. :) anyway, I have a question for you. When you used Rode vid micro, did you turn the ph power on? Your audio seemed a bit soft with that mic. I am considering getting the sr-pax1, but of the audio with the vid micro is so soft even with the ph power on, then it’s no good. I am hoping that you forgot to turn on the ph part in that instance. :) cheers!
