Hey Curren-- new subscriber here. Watching several of your videos so I apologize for sending you multiple dumb questions on the same day. If you use a splitter cable for audio, are the two feeds blended into one audio channel or are they able to be kept separate in post (maybe one is L one is R?)? Thanks.

[@CurrenSheldon]

No worries at all - ask away. I believe it is camera dependent. For example, on something like the C70, the 3.5mm mic jack automatically splits to channels 3 and 4 if you're using a splitter or something like the Rode Wireless Go II. However, on the Panasonic S1H, everything is on a single track so you have to split it in post. But pretty sure most of the most recent mirrorless cameras have 2-4 channels of audio so they may automatically split the feed to channels 1 and 2.
