Thanks for the detailed review. I had hoped to see a head to head v the DJI, given the title. . One thing things I think you should have covered is more is on phone compatibility.. I use the DJI wireless on my android device. Its the only one I've found that allows me to record stereo on the phone. I haven't found a third party cable that allows this and I've purchased a half dozen, including the Synco -- two of them.

@bobuk5722 Год назад

Hi folks, just had an idea. Two transmitters means we could have one on front and one on back of our talent. Much less risk of losing audio direct into the camera plus we get two back up recordings on the transmitters. Probably not needed indoors or in studio but for wide roaming talent outside it might be very helpful.

We want a wireless microphone kit that doubles as a field recorder with 32 bit float with 4 recivers.

@NOlimitsON Год назад

Oh man, I think it won’t be coming very soon 😅

@TheElliotEquation Год назад

@@NOlimitsON four receivers too much interference you think?

@JustWhatINeed83 Год назад

Deity has a new wireless with 32 bit float backup coming. But not 4 receivers just singles.

@MrMoviePhoneEx Год назад

Not a 4 peice reciever kit, but the new Theos system from Diety comes damn close to that. That's what I'm upgrading my wireless kit to as soon as they are available. Quite a bit more expensive compared to these or the DJI mic, but you get the full 32bit float, and they can TC sync with their generator :)

@MrMoviePhoneEx Год назад

@@JustWhatINeed83 They have 2 kits coming, the Theos is the standard two piece kit, and the other one is a crazy hybrid stereo recorder, can't remember the name, but it's the single option.

When you’re in the room with the white wall background, I hear a constant high pitch noise. It’s not loud, but I can hear it being a constant pitch. Was there something in that room making the noise? Or, was that the mic’s internal self noise? Thanks!

I guess there could be some works outside the building… it’s not a self noise

Does the noise cancellation still work w lav mic plugged in? I would need one w internal recording not connecting to phone or camera.

@NOlimitsON 3 месяца назад

Yes

@OneDegreeLife Год назад

First, thank you for this review! Perhaps I overlooked it, but in the audio comparison with the Rode at 8:19, you give the recording parameters for the MAX as full gain (10), internal camera gain as 1, and then you reveal the internal recording volume for the unit. However, did you explain the settings for the Rode? What was the gain set to on the device/in the camera? Was the sound we heard from the Rode what the camera picked up or the internal recording? You mention "internal mic" but did you mean internal recording or just using the built-in mic? Sorry for all the questions, but in a side-by-side knowing how the gain was rated and where the sound for the Rode was recorded would be really helpful! Thanks

@NOlimitsON Год назад

Hi! Thanks! Rode wireless go (first generation) doesn’t have an internal recording. It was at max gain on Rode and 3-4 gain in-camera. “Internal mic” means that it was the built-in mic of the transmitter.

@OneDegreeLife Год назад

@@NOlimitsON Ahhhh, makes more sense. Ok. I only have the WGOII so I wasn't aware of the internal recording. Thanks for the additional data though!

@bobmusikk Год назад

So, I bought these and 1 minute later I found a bug. When using a transmitter/mic only in standalone with no receiver, the ENC does not engage. I wrote to Hollyland and after multiple testing and them asking me to document with video, they came to the evidence that some batches have this problem. So they told me to return it and wait for an update or firmware later someday. I'm in Canada and we probably have the bugged ones :) Yes I tried several at different stores, all do the same.

@NOlimitsON Год назад

Things happen… good that Hollyland recognizes the problem and tries to fix it

@HarshDeepSingh-pc5ou 9 месяцев назад

Hey, so I've a cheap lav mic and looking to buy hollyland or dji, but I've heard that people post process their audio. If I have to post process such an expensive mic, is there really a benefit of it ?

@NOlimitsON 9 месяцев назад

In my opinion out of the box Hollyland sounds better)

@kidcoma1340 9 месяцев назад

Good review but what I have not seen from any reviewer do yet is using both mics to record a talk. Since the mics seem to pick up a lot of omnidirectional sound, I wonder if this could lead to phasing issues, when both mics pick up both persons.

@NOlimitsON 9 месяцев назад

Thanks a lot) I’ll make such test in my review of Rode wireless Pro vs DJI mic - stay tuned)

@bobuk5722 Год назад

Me again! In general 2,4 GHz systems will perform better when used near radio reflective surfaces. In that respect a wooded area may well be better than an open plain. Brick walls will also be somewhat reflective. Open plan offices are pretty friendly as well. Large sections of metal though - eg shipping containers - are likely to create radio shadows. These 'wifi' systems all monitor the in band channels and endeavour to skip to the cleanest one in an undetectable manner. For absolute peace of mind you need an alternative frequency licenced to you for your period of usage. Both the kit and the licence for that are much more expensive than these systems - 2.4Hz is licence free over almost the entire planet. Don't risk using licence dependent kit without the licence - all your camera kit, not just the audio stuff, could be confiscated if caught.

Anyone tested with sennheiser lavalier, like mke40 or mke2?

@NOlimitsON Год назад

Sennheiser is pretty hard to find anywhere and the almost never send their stuff to reviewers… so it’s quiet a challenge

@YourDriver Год назад

if 2 people wear these and stand close together, would there be an echo because both mics pick up the opposite persons audio? Does it filter that out? I am thinking about using this for a wedding, have you tested that?

@NOlimitsON Год назад

No echo, but the mics will pick up each other

So what would you rate the DJI vs this one? Or on a 1-10 scale what would you rate each separately. At very least in terms of performance. I’m less concerned about the packaging/case etc

I’d give in total 7 out of 10 to DJI and 8 out of 10 to Hollyland

Just fyi, dji mic lets you lock the record button just in case you bump it by accident it won’t stop, the hollyland lark max doesn’t have an option to do that. That’s the only downside i found about this mic.

@RaidenCage Год назад

Hollyland has TERRIBLE service here in Turkey. I've sent in my Lark150 multiple times for a repair (the case battery drains by itself in couple of days) and even though the company (OKTOSTORE) responsible for the repair said they fixed it, they sent back the mics without ever fixing the problem. #NeverAgain

@NOlimitsON Год назад

Sad to hear that

@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Год назад

If you use a paper clip and press the reset button, it will charge again. It’s an annoying problem that after a few days you have to reset it - but at least it will start charging after you do that. It’s a tiny hole on the back of the charging case.

@cyvidal10 Год назад

i just wish they made the receiver upright and not that wide. the dji receiver is already wide, and this look even wider

It doesn’t bother me at all to be honest)) if it works fine - I’m okay with that)

DJI Mic Killer? DJI Mic are dead anyway. They often lose connection whenever one uses a lav mic (rotating the plugged cable 5° will stop all signals!) and the thing cant even properly be conneccted to the camera. DJI Mic is THE biggest scam in DJIs history…

@NOlimitsON Год назад

Strong statement 😅

@Angelux31 Год назад

Not true, DJI Mic are the best of the wireless on the go microphones in the market

@TheElliotEquation Год назад

I agree with this, the DJI mics are a nightmare and many units, including mine, are defective causing audio synch issues and random popping noises making the audio unusable

@m0nztam0nk Год назад

@@Angelux31 i have used them on different porfessional shoots. I had 2 (!) critical losses of audio in 3 Projects. 2!!! They have a terrible LAV-Mic connector thats the absolute devil. It will show regular recording when you set it up and then randomly stop working. It tool me an entire day to find out, that this is bec. the 3.5mm jack connector is absolute shite. It will disable and block any signal when after plugging in is rotated more then 3-5°. And as you might imagine, that happens all the time. You cant even solve it by taping the goshdarn thing together, as its not a problem of the thing sloding out but just the slightest rotation. And YES, i tested this with more then 4 different LAV-mices and other 3.5mm jack imputs. Unless one uses these things purely on their own (without lav mic or any other 3.5mm input), one is asking for desaster when using these. I LOVE DJI for their Mavic drones, but these mics are an abomination. These devices are MADE for LAV-mics, yet they never work with any reliability.

@m0nztam0nk Год назад

@@TheElliotEquation oh, and not to mention they are the only wireless mics on the market that are extremely sensitive for not perfectly shielded lavmics too. So if they dont completely mute their input randomly, then they will just put a huge buzzing sound on almost half the available LAV-microphones out there on the market. (And since these issues pertain the mic input, the affect both internal and wireless Audio signals). These things are an absolute failure.
