I think I've officially made the switch back to the DJI system! Let me know your choice though and what you factored in!

@mousbleu 5 месяцев назад

Rode sounds much better.

@VandromedasTravels 4 месяца назад

I am very disappointed that there's no timecode facility on the DJI system. Given that, on the Pocket 3, you can jam synch from an external clock, it's a massive oversight not to carry the timecode synch over to the TX units - given that, in many cases, users will want to avail themselves of the 32 bit float recordings onboard the TX, but will then have to synch in post via audio - something that's not always going to be possible in a multicam situation. Same applies to the Action 4 (and 3, I think) - both can be jam synched for timecode, so I just cannot understand why DJI's left this facility out. Massive shame, and means that the Rode Wireless Pro wins out. Also, the artefacts on your noise reduction tests on the pier are exceedingly distracting, so I doubt I'd be using that - much better to have finer control in post, IMHO, than have the DJI decide what it's going to do. Similarly, (and not just in your tests, but also on others) the noise reduction is too aggressive anyway, leaving the resultant audio sounding false and over-processed. The viewer's eyes and ears do not deliver the same story - in a noisy environment, some of the background noise needs to come through, otherwise, again, it sounds false. Further - no data transfer from TX units when mounted in the charging case? Why ever not? Another massive oversight. PLUS... the Rode system at 50 bucks more gives you two (count 'em) very decent lavs (usually retailing at a hundred notes apiece), while DJI has decided not to include their "accessory" lavs in the package? Nope - I think DJI has seriously missed the boat on this one. They're competing with, perhaps, the Rode Wireless Me two TX system, certainly not the Wireless Pro system.

@VandromedasTravels 4 месяца назад

Just to add - since you've obviously got a better track to DJI than many of us - will they, do you think, address the timecode aspect of all of this in a future firmware update? Sorry, but I am severely disappointed by this half-assed release.

@VandromedasTravels 4 месяца назад

Oh - and one further thing. It looks like you lose both noise cancelling and 32 bit float if you use a bluetooth connection to a phone or Action 4/ Insta 360 wossname. Can you confirm?

@patrickleidgens3902 4 месяца назад

I am a TV cameraman for years and I ordered DJI Mic 2. Seeing the reviews I was a bit worried that the sound would be lacking some presence. I received DJI Mic 2 yesterday and made some tests. DEACTIVATING LOW CUT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE. Then the voice is much more full, bass comes back and the sound of this tiny thing becomes amazing. Definitely be aware this is a really important setting. Really impressed so far.

@robertquinonez_ 4 месяца назад

I just noticed Potato Jet 's review on the Dji with Low Cut off....Yup, 100 % they both sound exactly the same both the Roade and Dji. Thanks again!

@zack.fitness 4 месяца назад

I was looking at a few videos and seeing if anyone pointed out that a lot of these reviews didn't turn off low cut which is active by default. I was a bit worried about the sound presence as well but figured I'd order it and try myself and noticed that in the menu on initial setup as well!

@michaelekwulugo8659 4 месяца назад

Awesome tip, how do you’d activate low cut please?

@zack.fitness 4 месяца назад

@@michaelekwulugo8659 So to deactivate or activate low cut swipe down on the receiver screen, select transmitter settings, select low cut on / off and then exit the menu! Makes a fairly significant difference in my testing at least to my ears!

Is it just me or does the Rode Mics sound fuller? When you're walking around on the pier, I get that there's a lot of environmental noise but I think I'd prefer that over that overly digitized sound of the DJI noise cancelation. 🤷🏻‍♂

@amart3869 4 месяца назад

Yeah, it does sound much better when you compare the recordings - both outdoors and indoors. And the noise cancellation on DJI is unusable. I'm kind of surprised David did not comment on that and decided to go with DJI - while I do prefer the look and form factor of these, Rode just sounds so much better.

@sirgigolo 4 месяца назад

It does sound fuller. It sounds better and talhst noise cancellation is garbage in my opinion

@DavidManningvlog 4 месяца назад

For sure the Rode sounds fuller in mic, but once in post they can be equalized to sound almost identical. So the question then becomes overall system features and use case for what you need. I think the DJI is more creator focused, but if you're being paid for a gig, you have to go with the Rode for the locking lav port

The upgrade to 32 bit float, and adding noise cancellation are interesting new features. I think it's time to upgrade. Great review, thanks for sharing.

@Ronnie867 4 месяца назад

I know that sound preference is more subjective, but as far as your comparison test is concerned, I prefer the DJI's, in fact the vocals are crisper and more pleasant to the ear, which is great for recording people's activities, such as character interviews, wedding ceremonies.

@derdude8201 4 месяца назад

Crazy subjective! I played audio from both systems unedited as well as edited (Fairlight) to 27 people last week. 26 of them preferred the rode. With and without Lavaliers. I myself have a hard time deciding which platform to choose, if I’d use it as a content creator. I really prefer the rode pro sound but I also like the Mic 2 sound. And I love all those features the new DJI has. I would love the DJI with the rode sound and timecode ability.. But as I am using it as a professional I must use what the clients prefer… So I am using the Deity Theos and/or the Tentacle track e. Far superior sound quality. The sound of the rode pro is closer to them and by far easier/faster to match, so I’ll grab that as backup/addition. As a one person RU-vid channel where I wouldn’t need those extra 10-20% more sound quality… I’d may choose the DJI Mic 2.

@richardallen08 4 месяца назад

@@derdude8201 wow 26/27 people preferred the Rode... sounds right to me. I hated the DJI audio in this video. Super nasally & 0 bass. Totally agree with you, I was hoping DJI would have TC & a locking mic jack. Missed opportunity for sure.

Great video, as always. But, how different is sound quality when you send it through Bluetooth or the standard way? Also, the noise cancellation feature only works with the on board recording or it works as well when you send the sound to the camera through the receiver?

@RGMGFitness 4 месяца назад

David, great review as always. What’s interesting (and I think others have mentioned as well) is I personally like the MIC “without” the noise cancellation. It just sounds more authentic….I want to hear waves 🌊 in the background when people film at the beach 🏝. I’m sure noise canceling has it place (like when I’m filming at the wife decides to run the dishwasher 😳). But for the most point I’ll probably keep noise canceling off. Thanks again! Already got my order in on this one. 👍

@KarstenSuerich 5 месяцев назад

Hello David! I love your channel! This is a great review video! Thanks! I like the Bluetooth connection option to the Pocket 3 or the Action 4. If I have both DJI devices, can you pair the transmitters with the Pocket 3 and the Action 4 at the same time or do the transmitters remember multiple pairings? The transmitters would then automatically connect to one of the devices as soon as it is switched on. Does it work? THANK YOU and best regards from Germany!

@cruisinginthe808 4 месяца назад

Would you know that if you had the new DJI Mic 2 from the Osmo Pocket 3, and wanted to use it with a new pair of DJI Mic 2s, would that extra one interfere somehow with the other two or mess them up in any way? I get that you can't connect three transmitters as it only supports two, but I want to use that third one to record a third person that I'll add later in post. Just wondering how I can get a third person mic-ed up. Thanks!

@andyklapper8484 4 месяца назад

Just an FYI, from other reviewers - while the lab doesn't lock, you can loop the wire into a catch that is built into the clip, which at least gives you some pull resistance.

If the goal of a microphone is to obtain premium recording quality - the Rode wins hands down. I can't believe this is barely mentioned anywhere! The DJI system has way better form & function - but severely lacks in the quality of audio that it captures. If you can't hear the difference - you genuinely have hearing problems.

Don't forget that the Rode comes with two lavalier microphones and that's cool. Thanks for answers!

Hi Tristan, of course not David, but my opinion would be keep the Rode! For me personally the dji mic 2 is perfect when u need also bluetooth capabilities or when u're using an action 4 or the pocket 3. The audio on the Rode side is better and it delivers GainAssist. And in the kit u get the better lavalier mic! Just my personal opinion on this.

@hasenmyer 5 месяцев назад

can you keep one paired to your pocket 3 and one paired to your receiver at the same time, so you can keep them both charged and use whichever one you need at the time? Will the Osmo pocket three receiver fit and/or charge in the charging case

@DavidManningvlog 5 месяцев назад

The DJI Mic 2 that came with the Pocket 3 is the exact same transmitter, so it would fit in the system the same, but anytime you put the mics in the charging case, they'll automatically pair with the DJI Receiver and you would need to repair them with the Pocket 3 each time. I picked up the combo with the Pocket 3, so with this, I now have three transmitters total. I'll just keep the Pocket 3's charged via USB C and clipped onto the hard case so I don't get them confused with each other

About halfway through the video, so I don’t know if you mentioned it or not, but the pro is definitely more professional. The fact that it has a locking Jack for a lav Mic is a huge deal. Not sure if you mentioned it, but the pro also has time code encoding. Absolutely must for multicam. I have successfully used the pro to generate a time code, we jammed that time code into our Tentacle track E and sync, E systems, and now we have road and Tentacle working together.

The float is only recorded internally in the mic. Not on the camera.

Still think that the 32-bit float only records to the transmitter itself. And I LOVE that Shimoda backpack!!!

Is noise cancellation built into the mic or is that only if used through the receiver?

@lenvasiljevs 4 месяца назад

It seems to be only through the receiver. I haven’t been able to enable the noise cancellation via the transmitter alone. I thought there’d be a button to press, but the manual doesn’t refer to the noise cancellation via the transmitter.

Did you have an EQ on the rode mic bc in comparison there is a lot of bass and muddiness coming from the DJI mics and there’s just so much more clarity in the Rode mic. Idk if it’s just the default we with your voice but the dji didn’t sound as crisp as the rode.

Thank you for this comparison. Wow, I was about to order the DJI Mic 2 bundle, but it sounds bad compared to the Røde.

Can you adjust the noise cancellation level? In some cases like at the beach you still want a bit of background noise otherwise like when you were on the pier the complete noise cancelation makes the video stail. DJI without cancelation on the beach sounds like garbage. You had to show a Rode with noise cancelation in post procession to make this a fair and valid review. With that said, I do like DJIs additional features like bluetooth, receiver, and usb c mounting to phone adapter.

When listening on my XM5 headphones, you can really hear the processing on the DJI Mic 2's in the NC mode. It sounds like you're talking into a fan on the highs and now I know that in the intro you were using it for your main audio source because the same effect happened there and on the beach tests. I had a similar effect when watching Gene's video, so any sort of low-pass filter if its on needs to go because it's processing too much of the highs. Otherwise I wish RODE or DJI both made better cases, and you really can't go wrong with either though the direct touch controls and BT support (even if it is squashed to the BT Codecs) is handy to have. So are the white receivers.

I had the road first system and then the road go to system but did not get the new road pro. Because I had a pocket 3 I did buy the DJI Mike 2 but after watching your demonstration I still also think that the road pro sounds better.

One thing you forgot that I don't think many people know about is that the DJI Mic 2 can be used with the Insta360 Ace Pro without a micro USB mic adapter. It connects to the Ace Pro using bluetooth. I don't believe you can do that with the Rode. However, the DJI Mic 2 transmitter was sold about 5 minutes after I got the email this morning... Unreal that they don't have more available on a product launch...

That is pretty shocking, but I totally get why a ton of people are just going for the transmitters alone. For $99 you pretty much get the full feature set of the combo pack without the ability to line in directly to a camera or charge in the case. BUT, if you're like me and almost always record internally and sync in post, you're essentially getting the full feature set for $99 which is pretty crazy!

How would you enable 32bit float if you only had the transmitter? With Osmo Pocket 3 it can be enabled on the OP3. Similarly with the mic 2 receiver. Not aware of any way to enable it if you only had a single transmitter for use with a phone?
