DJI MIC 2 Beginners Guide - Start Here 

You might get complaints for explaining things like we are 5 years old, but for the LOVE OF GOD, DO NOT STOP! This is how every video should be explaining gear and how to use them! Some of us have ADHD as adults, and we need this level of explanation to follow through. Please don't stop creating guides like this Jeven. It makes thing easily understandable for those of us with disabilities.

Don't bother listening to any other tutorials. This one is the BEST!

Man, I’m a 63 yo physician and tech geek before there was even such a thing as a personal computer. My comment to you is, DON’t STOP! You’ve got the Right Stuff and will continue to grow exponentially Thank you for what you do! You’re a great teacher

Best DJI MIC 2 tutorial on the internet. Thank you.

I don’t ever hardly comment on videos, but this tutorial was so sound (haha get it) that I felt like I needed to.

This is so amazing and useful. I don’t think I’ve ever paid more attention in my life 💀 I also appreciate the amount of work you put into this video 👌👌💪💪

This is the best tutorial out there. You can always skip past things you already know, or you can just learn them again as a refresher. Great job, Jeven.

I was about to return mine until I saw this video. This is the best video on these devices I have seen.

Watched this 4 times and just received my mic, time to watch it again! Many Thanks, this is appreciated!

Thank you. Best walkthrough I've seen. Very helpful.

Thanks for this great video, I used it to help decide on getting the DJI Mic 2, which I ordered and it arrived yesterday. My first wireless mic setup and came from a Zoom H1N. Now, I'm watching it again to refresh myself on its usage. A couple of things I noticed, which you may have covered in the video but are worth mentioning again. 1. The Safety Track only works when using the receiver, i.e. it is not recorded to the internal of the transmitter. 2. When using Bluetooth on the transmitter you can also NOT use Intelligent Noise Cancelling nor Internal Recording. 3. And lastly, when you start recording on a receiver connected Camera, internal transmitter recording does not start automatically, you have to manually start if you want both, in case of a signal drop from the transmitter. 4. I saw somewhere else that said 32-bit float was not recorded to the internal transmitter, but it does, in fact, record 32-bit float. 5. When using the transmitter in Bluetooth mode connected to an iPhone, you won't get DJI audio in when using the default Camera/Video app, you need a 3rd party where you can manually change the audio input, there is also a hack to use a screen recording to change the audio input to DJI and then record video with the default app. Please correct me if I am mistaken on any of the above. Again, thanks for a great video.

A superb tutorial, packed with everything we need and nothing we don't. At last a video titled 'Complete Beginner's Guide' is actually exactly that. So refreshing. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make this.

This is great! I wish all instruction videos out there in this world were like this. Thanks man, very helpful

Just got the DJI Mic 2 and this is such an awesome walk through. Very easy to follow and great information!!

watched both long-form tutorials for mic 2 and dji pocket 3. excellent coverage and pacing Jeven!

This is the BEST video. Always delivers and never waste time. Straight to the point. Thank you!

Thank you man. Just got these mics and this was mega helpful! Love the clear and structured way you speak.

best tutorial for dji 2 mic. hands down. very efficient and thorough! thank you

Dude, I've been looking for this kind of video since I bought the Mic2 and finally found this instead of the hype videos that all the other dudes do. Thank you! So perfect for what I needed!

Incredible! You could NOT have been any more helpful to a beginner. Thank you! Also the ingenuity behind this mic is unlike anything. Everything just works. They packed all this stuff and the touch controls in such a tiny little device. I only hope the audio quality justifies the $350.

Just got mine today. Upgraded from the Ver1. Thanks for this video. Great explanation of all the setting and what these are capable of.

Man your videos are always so good and detailed.

Incredibly helpful. I have no idea how you culled all of the from the printed manual, but this is everything I needed. I’m new to video and audio for video so it’s all pretty intimidating but you’ve helped tremendously. Thank you!

Incredibly in depth. Thank you sir! I bought this, some Mevo cans, and a DJI Mini pro. Podcasting and videography are my new endeavors...

I've never used a microphone device before, this tutorial is super helpful, thank you so much! esp the demos, it was great hearing the difference

Thank you for putting this together, extremely detailed and helpful, I'll be coming back to this multiple times.

What a great video! You explained everything so well. I'm super excited to go out and use my DJI Mic 2 now!

Love this! Just got mine and this is so great to get me a head start for good audio! Thank you!

Great information Jeven. I just got the Mic 2 in yesterday and I will refer to information I learned from watching your guide. Thanks for sharing.

Really good video. Thank you. Very thorough!

Excellent video. I have just bought this and your video made everything easy for me! Cheers.

Perfect video from a great RU-vidr. Congratulations! I bought the DJI MIC2 Combo, was a bit lost...not anymore. Thank you for such a detailed explanation.

Well done, very descriptive for all levels. Thanks for the video!

Thank you, I really like the way you explain, specially how to connect with bluetooth, very detail. I searched and found many video, but could not find. Only your video who explain about blue and green light when pairing with bluetooth.

Hi Jeven, great video as always! i'm an happy owner of a DJI Osmo action 4 and i'm very interested to buy a dji mic 2, just one trasmitter to bind it to the OA4 via Bluetooth, how can i adjust the levels/gain on this configuration? thank you in advance, cheers from Roma Italy

Really appreciate this video. I’m just starting off with audio and this was a great explanation of concepts

Incredibly in depth walk through 👏🏽 thanks for this

Great video, very helpful. Thanks for making this!

Brilliant, detailed and very helpful. Thank you very much.

Subscription deserved! Thank You Javen 💪🏼

Thanks for sharing this guide buddy. Great for me because my Mic 2 is still in the box and i needed a video "manual". Awsome. Great content. Keep it up 👍

Syper useful guide. Thanks for putting in all this work.

Dude this is SUCH a good tutorial. WOW!!!!

Every other si called "beginners" video on the mic 2 was doing my head in until I watched this one! Can't thank you enough! 🙌

Very helpful video. I learned quite a bit. Thanks so much.

Honestly, everything you might need, this was amazing!

Great explanation of all the features - thank you!

Epically good video, thank you for making it. Theres no way to get this great of information explained so well from anywhere, especially DJI. Thank you!

Humble thanks! Great run through ...

Thanks for this bro! Just got mine, this is a great help🙏🏼

Best guide on RU-vid! Thanks and congratulations🙌

Brilliant video mate. Inspiring.

Thanks for this video, watched it in its entirety

Thank you for this video!

Such a great helpful video thanks

Pretty descriptive mate. Appreciate your work!

Quality content as always! Waiting for the videos about media management and time management! ;)

Great video really helped me out dude just subscribed

Excellent video! Thanks bro!

Very helpful! Huge thanks

FANTASTIC AND INFORMATIVE VIDEO!!!! THANK YOU!

Thanks for sharing. I just switch from my old Senheiser G3 as i’m not doing much tv shoot anymore and i would say that the dji mic2 are litterally game changer. So easy to use and when you’re a one man shooter doing camera and sound seriously it’s so fun to work with simple tools like this. One thing i’ll have to try i a jack 1/8 to an xlr so i can use it with an fs7.

Jeven, fantastic training guide for the M2....as usual!

THIS GUY is incredible, genius, dude thank you sooooooo much!

Awesome, video, thanks!

Wooooooow!!! This is THE ultimate tutorial, thank you so much !!!

Thank you for sharing this video. And yes, i went and ordered one for myself.

This review is amazing, thanks bro!

Just picked this up today. What an awesome tutorial, thank you

It was really helpful. Thank you for the video. Much love. :)

Outstanding !! THANKS

Thank you, very helpful.

Awesome. Super useful.

Fantastic Tutorial , Keep up the good work !

Just got a set of these, hope it helps our sound as our sound hasn't been all that good. On the test runs they sound and work great (with go pro hero 12). Thanks for the guide with these and the drones!

Great explanation. I rented these for a wedding and your video made setup smooth.

Nice tutorial, very helpful.

Thank you so much!

Super great video! Very through

Jeven, I watched the whole video and this was very helpful and easy to follow. Great job! I'm wondering how I can set up a dual mic option with the DJI receiver and a Rode shot mic. Under this scenario, would you still recommend to setup the Sony camera at level 1 if also using a shot mic? Or set the Sony cam at default volume and lower the output volume on the DJI receiver? Thanks!

Thank you!

Outstanding video. Great presentation so clear and concise. 5 stars.

WOW! I usually don’t write comments since i‘m a silent viewer but this guide is out of this world. This is definitely the best and most detailed one I‘ve seen so far. Watched the full video and this is all I need. Can’t wait for mine to arrive tomorrow 🎉

Amazing video and review! Thank you so much!

thanks so much. GOD bless

The MOST helpful instruction

Very informative video! 👍

I just got mine, thank you for this video! I get really overwhelmed easily and this helped a lot!

Sweet! i held off buying the Creator combo pack for the Pocket 3 and now purchased it on its own so i could get these two mics separately (instead of 1 with the combo pack). Not getting the Combo pack means i won't have the battery handle but that is a moot point as i plan to charge from a power bank when needed. The handle business is not something i wanna fuss with. Thanks for the insightful video and detailed explanations. I'm still only halfway through watching and i'm sold!

Oh my god, I've been trying to figure out how to access each transmitter menu independently and i thought I'd tried everything. Swiping up on the left side or right side! Thank you!

Thank you for this 👏

great video!

Good stuff thank you

wow, now that was a comprehensive review man! Well done!

Thanks for this excellent guide to the DJI Mic 2. I just ordered it and I'll be using it for audio only, attached to my Android phone. Will it work with a standard voice recorder app? Or can you recommend a specific one?

such a great video :) thanks Jeven

Thanks for the great video.❤

am happy i went and bought the best, my audio will be superb

Jeven, I always enjoy referring to your channel when I need a thorough review of a product. Super consistent and comprehensive every time. I have the same setup that you use here: DJI Mic 2 + A7Siii. And despite the fact that DJI has recommended those settings AND the fact that several other pro RU-vidrs recommend the same settings, I can't even come close to getting them to work. With my transmitters at +0 gain, my receiver at +9, and my Sony at +1, the audio volume when I pull the footage into FCP is way, way too quiet even if I max the volume on it to +12. So I play with the camera levels, ensuring the -6 / -12 target and it's still crazy quiet in FCP. Combing that with the fact that Matt Johnson says the 32-bit float doesn't even work for the camera input (only the receiver's internal memory) and I honestly feel like throwing these things in the trash. I've been sitting here for hours, recording a hundred different ways (including pulling audio from the transmitter) and none of it, regardless of settings, is even remotely usable. 😩

you're awesome. thank you
