Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)
When I was at NAB, I had a chance to ask Jim about that. He stated that the current plan is for a 1/8" plug-in interface for mics, but was clearly still considering options regarding that. I brought up the fact that 1/8" is unbalanced, even if a 1/8"-to-XLR is employed. He agreed with me on that and stated that that was why they hadn't fully committed to the 1/8" plug idea yet. As the audio stats weren't printed on any the material, I get the impression that 1/8" plug idea was decided on pretty late in the game and only so that there would be some representation of the Scarlet's ability to process sound.
Graeme Nattress stated that the camera will be capable of recording two channels of audio.
As it's clear that 1/8" doesn't make Jim terribly comfortable, I feel strongly that they'll either figure out how to fit some XLR plugs onto the small camera or create a proprietary, balanced plug that would need a dongle out to XLR by the time it's released.

P.S. I saw no direct information on a headphone jack. I would hope they would include one.
