DOUBLE POST IGNORE - I don't know why must be a bug from the update here
The company I work for just got our Raptor today. If it had been here yesterday it would be out on a shoot tomorrow.
In prep for that, I was tasked to get an audio breakout solution.
I found out that the pinout of the Raptor was the same as the Alexa Mini.
I rented a Wooden Camera A-Box from a local camera rental house, Red Finch Rentals.
I have double confirmation. Wooden Camera and Remote Audio - that from the V-Raptor Ops Manual description - the Pinout diagrams, they are the same wiring specs as the regular Alexa Mini.

The problem is with what we call the clocking of the right angle connector. It covers the DC power input.
I have asked Remote Audio to make us a straight Lemo connector version of this. I just got a quote. Lemo 00 straight conector to XLR balanced stereo.
The Arri Mini LF seems to be 6 pin Lemo.. From what what I have gathered so far.
That said - I have had remarks from people that the Arri Mini only takes line in.
It also does not provide Phantom +48. That is not different from regular audio cables.
You don't have "special" line or mic XLR cables, with or with out phantom. XLR Cables are cables.
I will do some tests tomorrow when I bring in more gear to the office, and post the results.
