Sony Venice 5pin XLR cable

[Yosuke]

Hi, I'm trying to make a male 5pin XLR to Female 3pin XLR x 2 for Sony Venice. Does anyone know how the wiring goes?

 

I am pretty new to making my own cables but I've made a few normal XLR cables. 

 

Thank you

1) Ground
2) Ch1 (+)
3) Ch1 (-)
4) Ch2 (+)

5) Ch2 (-)

 

Usually I will just make it a single cable, not a splitter (so TA3F - XLR5M for example), and jump pins 2-4 and 3-5 for a dual mono track on the camera. We only ever send a mono feed anyway.

thank you!

 

if i just need to feed into Input 1 on the camera, can i just use the pin 1, 2 and 3?

This is compliant to AES14-1992 by the way. So whenever someone claims a “standard XLR5” chances are you get exactly this pinout.
