See my separate comment further down for details: you *can’t* record internally/backup recording when connected via bluetooth to a smartphone. Not possible. You *can* trigger a recording if transmitter is in bluetooth mode *and* not connected to a smartphone (blue blinking light) - but if connected to a smartphone via bluetooth the recording button does nothing but angrily buzz and red light goes on and off again.

Hi David, nicely done 🙂 1) If you have manually paired one Microphone / Transmitter to another device by Bluetooth, e.g. your mobile phone, it will NOT automatically re-pair to the DJI receiver when you put everything back into the DJI case. You have to put the Mic / Transmitter into its WiFi, not Bluetooth pairing mode before the resync will work. 2) I would also set 32 bit record up as that gives you something to rescue with more latitude in post from the Microphone / Transmitter recording. Note: the 32 bit recording is on the Mic / Transmitter only, it is not in 32 bit format when being transmitted to the DJI receiver. 3) You can switch off the function of the PWR button on the Mic / Transmitter which allows you to switch-on or off the noise reduction, so that it doesn't accidentally allow it to be switched. 4) If you've set auto record to ON and locked the record button, you can stop / start the recording from the receiver.

hi, without a receiver how do I control those settings ?
@hamradioop5777Ай бұрын
@@sturingnico There's the rub, you need the receiver for many of these 'settings'. So folks who have sold their original DJI Mic2 complete kit and just have the DJI Mic 2, will find themselves with less control. As an additional note to my original comment, when linking a DJI Mic2 by Bluetooth to a mobile phone or Insta360 X4 for example, even if you have enabled the Mic2's 32 bit float recording and / or the Mic2's Noise Reduction, both these TURN OFF when connected to the receiving device. I don't know why DJI did this, unless there was some kind of copyright on that functionality when not used with DJI receiver devices.

That routing path is more important for the longevity of the 90 degree connector than the "yank out" resistance. Trust me, back from the days of using wireless packs on my guitar...those 90 degree connections SUCK if they're not stabilized well. Flexing them back and forth nearly always ends up wearing it out, and boy howdy are those teeny tiny connectors difficult to rewire and repair. The routing detail behind the clip is a nice design feature to mitigate that for sure.

@@oppenheimer11 Sure. You need timecode when you simultaneously make several recordings from the same event, for example shooting video from different angles with a multi-camera setup, or recording audio independent from in-camera audio (or even with multiple mic channels). You need a way to synchronize all these recordings in editing. Doing this by hand can be challenging and time consuming. So, when you record synchronized time code with all your recordings, be it video or audio, post production will be a lot easier. When you only have one camera, and connect the mic to the camera, you won't need timecode - the camera will record video and audio in perfect sync. But as soon as you use external audio recorders (even the one that is built into the mic), you run in synchronization issues. There are professional audio recorders that record a timecode along with your audio. However, DJI Mic 2 can not do it on its own.
@valuemastery3 ай бұрын
@@oppenheimer11 No need to start recording at the same time. In professional setups, a world clock is used. It's a small device that runs a clock and can send a clock signal to cameras and audio recorders, so they don't use their internal clocks, and instead record all the same time signal from the world clock. Professional cameras and audio recorders have a clock input, but that means that you have to run wires for the clock signal across all your recording devices on set. In editing, the editing software recognizes the clock signal embedded in all input files (video files and audio files), and automatically synchronizes them perfectly. If you don't want to run cables from the world cock to all recorders, you can shortly connect every device to the clock, and then disconnect. The cameras and audio recorders adjust their internal clocks to the world clock, and then continue to use their internal clocks. But over time there will be drift, so it's maybe good for the next two hours before you have to connect again. In earlier days, when no world clocks where used, filml makers used "claps". These are small chalksboards, where scene numbers where written on, and then (after recording started) the clap below the board was used to make a short click/clap noise. Later in editing, you can see the moment of the clap on video, and hear it in the audio files. So video ond audio where shifted to snychronize the clap event at the beginning of recording, resulting video and audio to by in sync. If you don't want to use a clap, you can simply manually shift your audio on the timeline until you feel that speach is lip-synced. But today's editor sofftware such as Fincal Cut Pro X offer a automatic function to do it for you, if you have embedded audio in the video. It works like this: Record good audio with the Mic2 on the person you want to record. At the same time, the video camera records video+audio, but that audio recording is not good to be used in the final output, because it is not near enough to the recorded person. However, it is good enough for the editing software to automatically sync the Mic recording with the camera audio.

Thanks for this. Your original video was one of many that caused me to cancel my order because I could not stand the audio out of the DM2. I agree that this is kind of (mostly) DJI's fault. This high-pass filter should NOT have been on by default. I know the DM1 had that, and I turned it off. Rode did not have this filter that I noticed. I don't recall the filter having such a huge effect on the DM1 audio, but my memory could betray me. So now, I have one issue with the DM2. The big-ass logo and reflective case that is also transparent showing the texture + detail of the electronics. The Rode suffered from this nonsense too, but I found some matte stickers on Etsy to cover it up. A lav mic should not be a distraction, and draw no much attention to itself than what is absolutely necessary.

Just get a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and decided to dump my Rode Wireless GO II for the full DJI Mic 2 kit. I'm so surprised to see how much smaller the DJI Mic TX/RX is in person versus the Rode. That doesn't really come through on all the videos. Also loving the ability to change all the settings right on the TX itself and not have to use an app. Not sure if you know this, but once you pair each DJI Mic 2 to both the receiver and the OM3, you can toggle which link is active. Yes, every time you put it in the charging case and take it out it will be active in receiver (regular camera) mode, but you just toggle the button on the side to switch it to Bluetooth. You don't have to actually go through the Bluetooth pairing process over and over. I don't use timecode, so having one mic system that works both with the OP3 and my Nikon wireless camera, for simplicity, is worth any slight differences between the two mic systems.

Always best to apply noise reduction in post. Always. It's great that filmmakers have so many compact and affordable options for audio. These may lack some of the features and performance of professional systems, but they are waaaay better than using on-camera microphones. Audio, is so, so, so very important.

One issue with having the transmitter record locked on is that you can’t switch the transmitter into Bluetooth mode without going into settings on receiver and turning it off. (So if you want to hot swap from receiver to pocket 3 etc. you can’t do it easily) Also if your using Bluetooth on your iPhone / insata360 camera etc you can not record internally. For noise reduction I wish they would allow us to disable it completely. I have accidentally hit it a few times now. Otherwise, it is a great system, I think it’s more geared toward content creators than it is professionals, but for me, having ability to connect it to Bluetooth devices is what allows it to stay in my bag.

And to get the clearest sound possible from the dji mic 2’s the cabled lav is necessary, and places it closer in sound to the Røde (but without the lav on the Røde).

I don’t see why you can’t pair with the receiver and the Osmo pocket. I believe you can have one Bluetooth pairing and to the receiver and change between these modes on the transmitters. It works with my phone but haven’t tested with the Osmo.

I wish that more KZbinrs would use the Dji to reduce the wind noise.

Can you please compare the lav mics using both of these? I’d love to see which system sounds better using the lav mic. Thanks!

It will have to do more with the mics used than with the transmitter. I have a Sennheiser AVX lav mic which costs about 1200 Euro, and it connects fine with the DJI Mic 2 transmitter.

Idk. Even without headphones the DJI seems a little more linear. Just isn’t as good as rode. They aren’t super far off but I still think the rode sounds better which id expect from a company with so much history in microphones. DJI sounds significantly better than the first video though. With the low pass on I was honestly mind blown they charged so much for the DJIs😂

Mystery mic 2 which I believe is the Rode still sounds better.

Thanks for this video. I cant get in one thing - at 7:58 farmgent with noise rediction - is this setting activated on mic/transmitter itself and will be applied to transmitted signal to reciver AND to inplace record? Or just to transmitted? I think about to get one reciver only to record audio internally on the bike with GoPro 12 - I just dont need reciver - its bulky with silly "media mode".

I was disappointed in the DJI mic in the previous video But you changed the thinking a little .. I hope it is in comparison with the Saramonic mic .. You should paste the link of this explanatory video in the comments of the previous video .. I benefited a lot Thank you Google Translate

Awesome as always David! I'm still rockin my OG Wireless Go but this stuff just gets better and better, there's just no excuse nowadays to have shitty audio as there's so much options.

Awesome video again David I am just wondering does the dji mic 2 work with the gopro hero 12 using Bluetooth
@tordendar57705 ай бұрын
@6:22 is not quite right. From a footnote on DJI's website: When the DJI Mic 2 transmitter is connected to a smartphone via Bluetooth, internal recording is not available.

I love the mic 2 and am finding more things I enjoy about it. I would go crazy having to go through all the audio it would record if I had the audio lock on. Maybe that's just me and my use case. Good to know though.

Great post, well done ! Got it with pocket3 creator combo, but i noticed that when i play the video in the mimo app, my voice comes with a small delay after my lips move :P How could i fix this ?

Lemme guess.. mystery mic 2 is the Rode. I like #2 better still.

Sadly, DJI does not give any way to change this (currently) without having the full set with the receiver. This is bad for folks who are just using the transmitter with a phone. Their support suggests going down to a store that sells them and use their's… but I have yet to find any store around my that sells them ;)
