It is not possible to defeat the AGC with a mixer or any other
kind of external device or scheme.

aand if possible to make it better by using a double system
set up by recording with a separate DAT

An excelent suggestion. But since DAT is essentially dead,
there are other viable alternatives.



As I said before. With PD150's/170's and some other camcorders, the Auto audio level function will respond proportionately to an external mixer to the extent that such a mixer will defeat for most practical purposes the auto level.

DAT is not dead by any means, just depends within whose modus operendi you're working.
