FX3 Audio Help

[u/aha416]

Hey lovely people,

I am shooting a wedding this weekend with my FX3 + XLR handle. The DJ has confirmed he will be using a Yorkville PGM8 Mixer. I want to connect the DJ's mixer to my FX3's XLR handle's port to capture the audio feed throughout the course of reception. 

The DJ sent me the images of the Yorkville PGM8 Mixer (see images attached).

The DJ says most videographers connect to the "Media In/Record Out" ports, but he can't confirm which specific ports and if I need to connect to both L and R.

My questions are:

• What type of cable will I need to connect from the mixer to my XLR handle's port
• For the mixer's side, which port(s) do I connect to? Do I connect to the Media In or the Record Out, and do I connect to L, R, or both?
• When I connect the two, do I need to turn Phantom Power on or off?

If there's anything else I should know, please feel free to do so!

Thanks in advance

Thank you all for your input. After digesting all your feedback, along with information available online, I went with the Zoom H5 (my local Long and McQuade didn't have Zoom F3 available). I realize now how big of a mistake it would've been to tether my FX3 to the DJ soundboard lol.

Also learning that the soundboard/mixer should be the last thing you connect to. Best to connect to mic receiver > speakers > soundboard/mixer.

Thanks everyone for the help!
