Disabling internal audio channel on A7 when recording video?

Hi there!

 

I have a question about using an external mic when recording video on the A7: I've plugged a wireless Sony URX-P03 receiver, which is connected to a UTX-B03 receiver with a clip-on mic to record an interview.

 

It sounds to me like the A7 is automatically mixing the audio from the clip-on Mic together with the internal mic from the camera itself, as you hear a lot of background noise in the interview I'm shooting (see and hear here). However, I can't find any setting on the A7 to choose which audio sources to record and/or to turn off the internal mic.

 

Any thoughts on this?

 

Thanks in advance!

I am having this exact problem. The amount of noise is crazy when I jump into final cut pro x to edit. I am using a Rode microphone as well - so not something overly cheap! I DO have it plugged into the right spot (there's three 'doors' on the left-hand side and I have it plugged into the microphone jack, not the headphones one). Has anyone found a solution?
