Comments about Shure A15LA - Line Adapter:
Help me out with this. You do event work where you occasionally have to take a feed from a mixer with line level outs. Do you spend at least $400 for your own mixer to knock the feed down to mic level? Or do you buy this great little behind-saver?
That's what I thought. Case closed.

Comments about Shure A15LA - Line Adapter:
The Shure A15LA Line Adapter is a useful line-to-mic input matching device for small active audio mixers not having a balanced mic-level output. With appropriate patch cables this is a simple solution to connecting a small audio mixer to an in-house PA system for expanded inputs with local control.

Comments about Shure A15LA - Line Adapter:
I have always used Shure products simply because they are bullet proof and they always work. The A15LA is all of the above. I use it to go from a audio mixer XLR Bal line out into the XLR mic input from a Canon XL2. No buzzing, no humming, just good clear audio.

Comments about Shure A15LA - Line Adapter:
I film live events using Canon XL2 cameras. The cameras are a great tool, but they do not accept line level audio input. It must be mic level. On one important shoot, I double checked with the audio technician if he would be able to provide mic level input. He told me that he could, but in fact he could not. I showed up to the shoot without audio tie in. I was forced to use my own mic system. At least I was prepared enough to do that.
Never again. These little in line adapters do a fine job reducing line level to mic level without having to carry lots of other equipment.
