My update: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXi5gHyrgpeJmdEsi=TTG-gBtjpo_ilGqy

[@blairmorris9452]

The DJI transmitter SUPPLIES 3.5 volts max to a lav. The Sennheiser MK-2 REQUIRES 7.5 volts in order to operate . This sizeable discrepancy is your issue with garbled audio. Also, the Sennheiser screw connector doesn't allow for a proper mating connection to the NON-SCREW DJI transmitter. The reason it may work on one transmitter and not another transmitter is the typical manufacturing discrepancies when using injection molded plastics as they relate to the use of precision mechanically mating connectors ... still completely irrelevant considering the Sennheiser mic has a screw connector, and the DJI transmitter cannot, in any sort of dependable fashion, accept a screw connector. In short, there's no "MAJOR issue"with the DJI transmitter, nor is there anything wrong with the Sennheiser lav ... you've simply discovered that they're fundamentally incompatible with each other, through no fault of either company. This is a classic demonstration of "USER ERROR".

[@tylerjslattery]

This is exactly correct. User error

[@digitalcity1]

I have the same Sennheiser lav mics and had the same issue with the Rode Go transmitters. So I cut the screw ring off with a Dremel. Problem solved. I then upgraded to the DJI system and no problem. I would just cut the ring off

[@gravitymediapro]

Absolutely the truth. I have the exact same issue with the first model of the DJI.

[@jfizzle]

Hahahahaha! He came out talking fast and hard. Please tell me they wouldn't make an entire video to look this stupid.

DJI Mic Drop 🥶

[@Christian_Wedoy]

If it works on one mic and not on the other one that is supposed to be the same type of device it is probably a defect unit you got, not a general problem with the mic.

[@FORZION]

Exactly. Sounds like bad quality control

[@YourSlogan]

@@FORZION Mine has the same problem!!

[@DrL33productions]

I just received mine yesterday and after watching this video I decided to run the same test. the Lav mic I used to run this test is the Senal UTM-86-35H they are small and do really like the audio out of them. I do have the Mic 1 and do have 4 of these Senal UTM-86-35H. After trying all 4 of them, they all worked with zero issues. It might just be your copy, I suggest you return those and get another copy or maybe your lav mics just don't work with those. I did try a few lav mics on the original Mic 1 and found out that the Senal UTM-86-35H works well with the system with zero issues.

[@unclejezza]

You may have a bum set there. I tested mine today on an event shoot and they were flawless. The noise cancelling is NEXT LEVEL. Love them :)

[@clvolt]

I was thinking the same thing. I think the QC is just not very good. I had a bum unit because my first main mic’s USBc port was crazy loose. My second set is great.

[@krishnayalla676]

You are using lav's with locking pin connectors which is probably creating interferance and not fully seating into the mic module.

[@MA-ij3sp]

I have the new Dji Mic 2 and i’m using lavs that have nuts but didn’t experience any of those issues. I also didn’t notice any difference in the way they sound from each other though I’ve heard other people have that issue. Personally I like them a lot and think they’re great for many scenarios.

[@r1ch0007]

Agreed!!I I’ve been using the mic 2 since November 23rd 2023, no issues!!

[@cineffect]

The original DJI Mic already works great for me so I am sticking with that.

[@hiawrj]

It has an issue where sound drops for 1 second on the internal recording every minute or so that thousands of customers experience. I hate amall annoying bugs. Some have to send them in for repair. DJI repairs them fornl free though.

[@cineffect]

@@hiawrj Interesting, mine never had that issue, but it surely sounds annoying.

[@Haylion]

@@cineffectI haven’t had any issues either. I bought mine on sale in October for $250. I’m totally cool with that price and I’m not going to upgrade to the Mic 2.

[@airviewcinematography]

Every test I’ve heard with the DJI lave sounds awful.

[@Isabel.N.Holistic.Coach.]

Me too!!!

[@Slipsch]

You need a different voltage for rode wireless pro and i assume the DJI mic 2. Not sure if there are other version of of Sanken COS-11D for different system, but if you look at the DPA 4060, you need different voltage version for these new kind of wireless system.

[@Brandon4Weiss]

that doesn't explain why it works on one transmitter but not the other one.

[@PhillipSkraba]

I have the same crap going on with some of my lav mics too with the DJI Mic 2, the Rode Lav+ won't work at all, and I have had some odd break-ups on my camera audio recordings.

[@GrenlandUnderVann]

Please note that the Mic2 only supplies approx 2,5 volts of power and many "pro lavs" needs 5-7 volts to work properly.

[@PhillipSkraba]

@@GrenlandUnderVann That's a good joke by DJI in that case.

[@thournheng731]

Isn't the Rode Lav+ for TRRS not TRS?

[@PhillipSkraba]

@@thournheng731 It works with the Mic 1 and all the rest of my mic systems, but yes, I think DJI got rid of TRRS on the Mic 2. I can basically connect my Rode Lav and the DJI Lav to it, nothing else.

[@definingslawek4731]

That's so strange considering the dji mic 2 has enough 'power' (idk which specific parameter matters here) to drive a shure sm7b with no cloud lifter / amplifier. I don't understand how it could drive a super power hungry mic like shure sm7b but not a tiny lav.@@GrenlandUnderVann

[@aaronshortmusic]

I am currently working on a project and the Rode Wireless ‘Pro’ has pops so I ordered the DJI mic 2 and it’s working great in comparison.

[@ivangrifi]

what are these pops coming from? I thought the Rode wireless pro was working well.

[@mjaydb]

No pops with my Rode Pro…

[@LouisLuzuka]

😮

[@MadRC]

Did you try separating the mics a bit further. It sounded like they were wiping each other out. Also as mentioned camera WiFi absolutely could and would have an impact. Mic 2 uses 2.4Ghz like many other systems including most WiFi on cameras. It’s very possible it would interfere and while this is less than ideal it’s also not particularly surprising.

[@barryobrien1890]

A lot depends on the shielding of the external mics as they act like a big antenna, and if the shield is not properly grounded through the screw mechanism, they will totally mess up the recorder if its not designed for un-shielded external mics.

[@njon23]

This launch should ultimately be viewed as an epic fail for both KZbin and DJI. So many people praising these things. I actually purchased them and they just sound BAD. Like…REALLY BAD. Total bummer.

[@ViewedUp]

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

[@EugenBrinzoiu]

When a new”something “is released and I see some KZbinrs posting at the same time, I just hit unsubscribe and problem solved. Thank you for your honesty ❤

[@ChristianPecksteiner]

This is so typical. Everyone was shilling this god damn mic when it was released? All because they earn affiliate money. I got the Rode Wireless PRO instead. (Happy till now.)

[@DAVISION-YT]

That’s actually a long time known problem of this ME-2-II Lav. Mics. Because of the nut they don’t work in any port. Some work others don’t, what works today doesn’t next time. It's because the mic is designed to be bolted and only then it is plugged in all the way. Thats why I removed the nut with a dremel on my ME-2-II. This is nothing new and was the same for me on the older wirless go and go ii sets.

[@FStoppers]

I understand that it has the screw that doesn't work with some units. But why does it work with the last DJI Mic system, and why does it work with half of the new system? And the second issue has nothing to do with the lav.

[@DAVISION-YT]

@@FStoppers I couldn’t explain your second problem but didn’t had it either. Also did a review of this and any every time I used it with receiver audio to camera it worked fine. About the screw, it depends on the length of the internal contacts inside the port. Maybe they changed a little bit from Mic 1 to Mic 2 or even from unit to unit. So the contacts doesn’t touch. But I don’t think thats djis fault it's clearly the design of the Lav whats the problem. Thats why on RODEs Lavalier II the bolt is removable. Btw the Lavalier II sounds way better then the ME-2-II.

[@fofopho]

Nah, it works with all the Rode Wireless sets, the old DJI set, and a basically every other non-threaded system I’ve ever plugged the ME-2 and MKE-2 in to. I have an issue with an old tascam system, but it was because the mic port was slightly recessed, not because the jack itself wasn’t compatible.

[@SuT4G4Racing]

@@DAVISION-YT Seeing that you control lavalier microphones, I'm thinking about purchasing some DJI Mic 2 and a lavalier to put inside a motorcycle helmet. I was thinking about a unidirectional one, any recommendations? Thank you very much in advance.

[@AndreSjoberg]

@@FStoppersHonestly it could be a tolerance issue with the production of the new dji mic 2’s, if enough tolerance slack is accepted in production length of how far the jack goes in, due to the sennheiser plug being slightly different, production differences in length from case to internal contact could be off for it to make proper contact, but any way hou look at it it’s not a good look for dji :/ I did a video on a completely separate problem relating to bluetooth/iphone connections and no internal recording and no support for native iphone video app, and new stuff is happening with even more problems showing up so probably doing a follow up as well

[@richbradbury]

Mine work perfectly with and without lav mics. The audio is excellent and there’s no interference. Everyone should know that using a screw on lav mic can potentially cause a miss seating issues. The only problem I’ve had was missing how to switch out of Bluetooth mode after syncing with a phone. You have to hold down the record button on the transmitter for three seconds to change back to syncing with the standard DJI receiver. This is easy to miss as it’s only mentioned once in the instructions.

[@EmeraldAudiovisual]

None of the lavs with locking connector will ever work in that 3.5mm jack properly, because you can't get it far enough in. Locking 3.5mm jacks are slightly protruding and that's your problem here. That's not a problem with the mic. That's just because locking connectors can't be used on most regular 3.5mm jack. With the Røde Lavalier II, you can unscrew the locking nut to use it in a regular 3.5mm jack. With your Sennheiser lav, that's a no go, as Sennheiser didn't intend them to be removed. It's not a fault. It's by design.

[@focuspulling]

This exactly. But is it the same issue that Curtis Judd experienced? He's far smarter and more qualified than the Fstoppers bros.

[@EmeraldAudiovisual]

@focuspulling I have not seen Curtis video, yet. But it is on my to do list. I do have both the Mic 1 and Mic 2 and the Mic 2 really doesn't have the margin to push a locking lav fully in. Especially because the top of the mic is curved, where the Mic 1 is flat around the connector and the connector is less recessed.

[@BoatTEST]

These Ruined my entire day!

[@amcluesent]

A poor workman blames his tools.

[@TheSmartWoodshop]

My DJI Mic V2, which came with the P3, has worked without issue. The V2 Kit is new to me, so I can't say one way or the other. I have two Rode lav mics, but since I started using the DJI V1 kit, I haven't used any lav mic as I prefer the transmitter without lav. Bottom line, my DJI mics are working flawlessly, and I would highly recommend them. The plus is direct single transmitter connection to MacBook, iPhone, Osmo P3 and Action 4 without receiver. P3 will allow 2 receiver connection without receiver.

[@flinalune]

Hi, recently I bought a DJI Mic 2 and I'm very disappointed because the only way to make the standalone recordings usable is to set the TX gain to +12dB, but they still have to be boosted a lot in post. I turned off the Low pass filter, I tried 32 and 24 bits, I tried everything but the records are still very quiet when I put the TX on my chest. Is it normal ? Does somoene managed to records something on a dji mic 2 without having to drastically boost in post ?

[@angeldirectedit28]

That’s how my DJI mic 1 were when I first bought them I couldn’t use any lavas think I have a faulty one

[@rfwhyte]

Thank you for actually posting something critical about a new product. It's so frustrating how inundated with sponsored "Reviews" KZbin has become to the point where every time any new product comes out, all you can find is people regurgitating the companies marketing talking points, knowing full well if they say anything critical about the product they won't get paid to make more review videos in the future.

[@focuspulling]

100%

[@GrenlandUnderVann]

Sure, but the mic jack issue is not a specific issue with the DJI Mic2. Its a problem with the locking nut connector. And, you will be hard to find another review with such nasty audio problems.

[@DAVISION-YT]

that plug situation has nothing to do with the Product he is talking about. It's long known with this Sennheiser Mic's. The Other part with the drop out's I simply did not have when testing this Mic.

[@mathiassiebert1217]

I find it outrageous when commentators like you accuse hundreds of KZbinrs of spreading untruths through their channels as soon as they praise a product. And if someone comes along with critical statements, he is the hero. Do you realize what a trap you are setting for yourself? There are various KZbinrs who have my trust because I followed their suggestions and implementing them made me very happy. They also discussed the DJI Mic. With audio examples in different configurations. It's all ok. Of course, it has become common practice for such companies to make the product available to important KZbinrs before it is released so that the product launch videos can appear. That doesn't mean they get paid. There is always a corresponding disclaimer. And if someone is actually no longer served, then it will be a matter of heart to them to buy one themselves so that they can perhaps tear up the next product. All your insinuations are nothing but that: insinuations. What should you do after watching a video like this? His great Sennheiser has this typical Sennheiser screw cap that will never be able to fully retract into the microphone. I'm surprised how this KZbinr could assume that so easily. I can't explain the other phenomenon, but I'm hearing it this way for the first time. I've done very similar experiments with my new DJI and can't reproduce any of it. What does that tell us? The mistake this KZbinr makes is far too quick to turn his own personal problem into a general "This is what the new mic is like". I find that wrong, unfair and unacceptable. Above all, these sensational titles annoy me. I'll let a KZbinr I don't know tell me what I should or shouldn't buy.

[@humbleopulence]

The access media just gets everywhere, don't they? Ugh...

[@DouglasSonders]

mine work well EXCEPT for the audio drift. I recorded 15 min video with one mic bluetooth connected to my DJI osmo action cam and the other mic recording internally. After 15 min the external mic has a 1-2 second discrepancy from the mic connected to the camera

[@WillyMouna]

Hello thanks for your review. Could you help me? I heard that DJI mic has drift while recording internally. But I need to record using the camera for about 2 hours on lectures. From what I heard if I recorded directly to the camera there is no drift only when recorded internally on the transmitter. Do you know something about that?

[@AlEbnereza]

WHAT in the world???? None of that makes any sense. Great catch Lee!

[@AANasseh]

Come on Lee. The MKe2 has a locking attachment whereas DJI does not have a locking connector. in Obviously it won’t work since it’s not physically inserted deep enough for a proper connection. The fact that it works better in one than the other is small variations in connection depth. And the good internal audio you got was recorded on the internal microphone on the unit, not from your lav! Come on man! 😅

[@storiedrivals]

Had the same issue with the original DJI mic. Sent it back.

[@ClevelandTerry]

I’ll never understand why manufacturers send product reviewers defective units. It’s happened to me many times.

Seriously? You're using this set in a way that almost no one else will and you're saying it has a flaw? Stick a ham sandwich and a drinking straw in there. It might not work either................

[@ScoobieDee]

I have the Rode wireless pro . I have a few MKE2 and MKE 1 ‘s and they have an interference buzz in the system . The standard ME2 works fine. Which is a shame I can’t use the pro end mic with Rode , it’s actually worst interference then the Wireless go 2. The MKE mics work fine with the Sennheiser system as expected

[@ClassicCyclingCC]

I returned my DJI mic 2. The sound quality is atrocious. It is muffled and has odd artifacts baked into the audio. I shall await to see if DJI fixes it with firmware updates but I think I am going to go with the Rode Pro.

[@ManavBhathal]

Whats the microphone you use to record the audio for the beggining of this video before you plugged in any dji or lav or whatever? That mic sounds amazing the original from the beggining of video. I would love to know please

[@BikersHQ]

Just spent 2 days shooting 7 interviews and I had zero issues with the DJI Mic 2. I never had a signal loss , even when the transmitter was in another room. I've used the Rode Lavalier Go and they worked perfect, giving a way better and richer sound that I can hear in this test...

[@MaryHackman-e1c]

[@rjwakeman]

Loads of issues with mine, Lav's not working, been using the Sony hotshoe adapter and just disconnects and then have to randomly faff around to get it to reconnect, had mics unsync and take ages to be recognised again. When it finally works, its great, it's just soooo temperamental.

[@SeezSantos]

Still don’t know why so many people buy DJI mics. The previous gen had issues with lav mics 🤷

[@JorgeBarona]

your mic is R or L, that one works on the older wireless systems, in order to be true stereo you may need a stereo mic, or have a R and L mics properly connected on the right or left receiver, mono mic wont work others why you end with a copy of left and right

[@ResizeFilms]

Yeah Curtis said the same thing, he had major issues with the audio. It’s not looking good at the moment, not sure if that can be fixed with a simple firmware update.

[@RabidTribble]

Really stupid question here - Could this be a TRS vs TRRS issue with the lav mics?

[@cbcinematics]

I was literally wondering the same. I'll look up the mic he's using to confirm! I looked it up and the connector types are all XLR. It's not revealing online about the 3.5mm connector of the lav. I ordered TRS connector type lavs to test with my own dji mic 2 set to see if i have same issue. And then try a TRRS connector too. However, the dji lav mic is marketed as a trs connector so I'm concluding you need a trs and not a TRRS.

[@robertquinonez_]

No…not to mention works with Dji mic 1. This guys is a pro… like he said he has been using wireless mice for the past 10 years lol.

[@MagnoliaPixie]

Not a stupid question. This is usually the issue with most audio gear even monitor headphones.

[@adastraglobal]

That is exactly what it is. It works perfect with the TRRS to TRS converter plug. I have the same setup.

[@cbcinematics]

Yep got my TRS mics today and it works! This is not an issue. I think this video should be taken down in prevent false information online.

[@gunslingerjbk]

having a bum device doesn't mean the whole mic is bad.... just got unlucky with the RNG gods. return it and get another and you will be fine like 90% of other people with them.

[@karlfranklin2023]

That's a huge deal breaker I was on the fence about getting the Rode or this new iteration I was leaning to Rode because I couldn't believe DJI released this system without a locking collar system. These issues solidify the Rode purchase. Thanks for the honest review.

[@leslieboom689]

So you dont want people to buy it because it wont work with a very specific microphone. Simple fix. Use a different microphone. If they said it's not made for that microphone. Then why try and use it and stop people buying a product because of your inability to follow instructions.

[@JakubHanVisual]

The second issue with the flawed audio in the receiver is a classic thing with 2.4GHz systems. This frequency is just way too crowded. Could have been your wi-fi messing with the audio. I am surprised you never heard anything like it before. All 2.4GHz systems are plagued by it.

[@mollyfilms]

The basic error is that you are trying to mix a prosumer product with a professional product. They tend to be different for a reason. You just discovered that. If you want to go professional then go that way 100%, don’t try and skimp by using a prosumer kit. As you say that lav mic cost more than the whole of the DJI kit combined. That’s your red flag.

[@Memorylane1957]

I have the Mic 2 system and I found out that a Female Trrs to Male Trs connection might help with some instances. I use a Shure MVL Lavalier mic.

[@Fredo.heavyy]

[@bestofsvg1027]

Soo your sticking something that’s not suppose to be there in it and wondering why the audio is bad ? Pretty sure they sent you a lav mic so the first mistake was assuming pretty sure that senhizzer however it’s spelt damaged the internal connections the fact that it doesn’t go all the way down proves it And not recommending people buy something because you have a problem with it based on your expensive senhizzer not work properly with it🤔 wow just wow

[@WyngzEdit]

The issue I'm facing with mine is that I shoot with an iPhone and the receiver is plugged directly into my iPhone but at times the audio doesn't sync and it uses the iPhone's built in mics instead of the receiver.. The only way around this was to always unplug and plug in the receiver every time before I start shooting. Anyone else facing this issue?

[@Philonic]

This really seems like you have a defective unit. Get a different one and try again. I sell equipment and there’s no way you have a normally functioning pair. Warranty swap that stuff.

[@joeym4090]

I'm not an audio expert, but perhaps connecting a extension cable to the MK2 can help determine if the screw lock is the culprit. Based on your video, it may seem it is. However, it is strange that it works on one transmitter but not on the other one. Hopefully DJI can clarify this.

[@crazyobservations3080]

That sounded like some sort of interference or lost signal. Iv heard other complaints about mic2 as well.

I take all you say with a pinch of salt as you are often wrong

I use both mics most of the time, and everything is working fine for me. My audio is also sounding better than what's publish in this video.

The same with me. Can't recap any of it. However, I'm also smart enough not to use a microphone with strange screw caps that were actually built for Sennheiser transmitters. I don't think Sennheiser engineers 20 years ago thought that decades later they might also go into small 3.5mm jacks on mobile audio devices of this size.

Have owned this mic for over a month. No issues. Bait.

For me problem one is I don’t like the look. I’m watching the review now and can’t wait to see what you share.
