How to get DJI Mic left and right signal recorded separately into Zoom H6 audio recorder?

[WaveformRider]

Hello! Anyone know how I can record a separated stereo signal from the DJI Mic into the Zoom H6— so I can work with the left and right recordings separately in Final Cut Pro? When recording stereo the DJI Mic receiver shows the left and right sides metering, as expected, but the stereo image is received as mono at the H6? I'm using the DJI-provided 3.5mm cable on the DJI Mic side, and on the Zoom H6 side I've tried both XLR and ¼" adaptors into the H6, without success. Do I need a splitter cable like the one in the attached photo, or something else entirely? If this is the type of cable I need... should I get one with XLR ends or ¼" ends? Does it matter? Thanks in advance!

Hi. I was just testing out my DJI mic with Zoom F6 and discovered the same problem. I used Rode 3.5mm to xlr adapter. Have you had any luck finding the right connector to sort this out?

Hello... yes... I purchased this 15" option and it works as I hoped it would: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PC967PX?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

The Amazon photo shows both XLR connectors having a red band, but the one I received has one red band and one blue band.

Thanks for that. Seems that it is 'unbalanced'. Does that have any impacy on the sound quality? Thanks.

No sound quality degradation I can detect. Sounds clean... but I've never tried a similar product that's balanced... if one exists.
