Simply wanted to thank you for taking the time to make this informative video. Nicely done and very succinct.
Thank you for a very calm and useful review!
Hey Jordan, you mention taking off the door and that's obviously the only way to make the adapter work. Will that then nix and waterproof qualities now that the door is open?
Thanks for testing this out. Loving the Hero5 and using it more and more then my DSLR and need to work on getting the audio to similar to the DSLR with external mic. Thanks again.
what can be the price of mic adapter in hongkong
Good helpful review. Now to check out your drone videos!!
love your review Jordan
Didn't know about those options! Thanks a lot! Should help out with my audio conundrum
Thank you very much for testing
Great review! Thank you- and the standard with the wireless mic worked best. The "plus" was bordering on over-modulation
Thanks for the video. Can you link the two mics you used?
looking for a fix for GPH5 external mic brick getting major clipping and crackling. Your vid gave me some ideas before throwing in the towel. thanks
Can you use the adapter and an external microphone with hdmi out at the same time? I want connect my go pro to an external recorder
In standard mode (with the rode pin mic) have you kept the Audio in Auto or is the Manual mode on? (Wind/Stereo mode)
Can I use a type c to aux adapter for a external mic? Or does it have to be gopro adapter because of software. ...
Thanks per helper
it is possible to connect the external mic adapter and a powerbank in the same time? the adapter plugged to the camera and the power bank plugged to the usb-c port included in the adapter? Because I have a wasabi handler + powebank and I want to connect de external mic and powerbank too.
I'd love to know this as well, can you use external power AND external mic at the same time?
can you plug this in the bottom of the karma grip?
can it charge the battery externally while the mic is running too? for example, if I was filming a fishing trip and have it running the whole time without swapping batteries while it's connected to a battery bank. Will it take the audio and charge at the same time?
Can I use this adapter with the Gymbal, or it could disbalance the Gopro because the extra weight.
Excellent review, thank you very much. I am very interested in the Rode PinMic, I use a Rode VideoMic Go on my Canon EOS 7D MK2 and am very pleased with that. I have a hero 5 Black and want to use an external mic, so will look at that Rode mic you used.
I’ve tried everything :/ my adapters are working I have a strong feeling and so are the mics I just bought but all I get is static sound, nothing overrides it. Idk what the problem is so it has to be the gopro. I even can charge the gopro with the cable but sound just doesn’t wanna work, I received 2 of those 50 dollar ones and I know they work cuz I get a charge from it too but iI am clueless on this. Can I still contact gopro about this problem and see if they can fix it?
So the microphone in you used had the TRS Jack? I have GoPro session 5 and hero 6 also GoPro mic adaptor. When I tried connecting the collar mic to the mic adaptor it was not able to capture my audio. So I browsed the GoPro website and saw that the microphone Jack should be of TRS so that it can capture the audio perfectly. The collar microphone which I have has the trrs Jack. Please throw some light on this particular topic. Thanks.
what camera are you using indoor? I like the quality and a depth of field. thanks
if i am coming out of an in ear monitor what setting should i put it on, the entire band mix will come through this unit, its called an Aviom personal in ear mixer, should i be on line in?
Does anybody know of any alternative adapter that would work on the hero 6? Cause the gopro adapter is way to bulky and expensive.
is it possible to simultaneously charge the gopro and record audio with external mic.
hello Jordan , do you know if this adapter works also on dslr or sony like a7r etc... ? thanks
Thanks for the review. I just installed the mic adapter and did the TheAdamBlack modification using a replacement enclosure. I can't believe how bad the internal mic on the gopro hero 5 is. Way too much boomyness. The external mic fixes that but at quite an overall cost.
Any way to cut down on the size Jordan? Trying to put a mic onto my Feiyu Tech G5... Can't have that much weight
This external mic work it to dji action or no?
Hey can i record sounds from my pc running a aux cable in this adapter?
Hi. Plz help. Me.. I wanna record my keyboard /synth playing with this adapter. With go. Pro video.. Will this work? Line in? Or only mic?
I liked the first one...I believe it was standard setting and no external mike. Very clear and natural. Awesome porch dude!
I prefer using the external mic. Helps reduce wind noise and handling noise, and makes it a more direct sound. Without a mic, it's a much wider, more natural sound, but you get a lot of external ambient noise that you may not want.
i wanna know if this thing can withstand high speed runs if i mount my go pro outside my car.
Do you know if the adapter and GoPro can handle a mic and external power pack at the same time?
Quick question, when using an external mic, does the wind only setting and the stereo setting change anything as far as the mic performance ?
i'm interested in the "line in" setting, using this with a very loud mono-synthesizer signal (eurorack-synthesizer).
does anyone know, if the combo "GoPro5 with this adapter" would be substantially better than GoPro4 with the old/simple mic-adapter cable on such a hot line-in signal?
thanks a lot.
Is this gonna work with gopro hero 4 black???
Hello,
Great video. Will this adapter work with the gopro 5 silver with a wireless mic?
Thanks.
Enjoyed the review. like the sound I see this as gopr had no room for the external mic hardware and here we got the oprional part via a type c port. Lol. again great job, got mine coming for a lot less money due to reward points. otherwise I deal with the lousy sound of t default that gopro knows about oil wells. we live and learn.
Can you tell me if there is a way to disable the mic on the gopro hero 5? Thanks. I want video with no background noise for certain shots.
Does using a microphone impact the battery life of the GoPro?
Fish Hawk I'd like to no that too the battery life as is, is bad enough.
Thanks for doing this clip. Will any old mic with the right plug work with the adaptor? I found a list on google of the ones that would work and damned if I can find it again.
I plug my adapter in and I have no Audio Input option I'm prefs yes I have latest version
Hey, Is this the only one adapter that works with Hero5 Black.?
really good info right there. ++
Is there just simply a Bluetooth mic that exists that can pair with the hero 5? Thanks
Hey Jordan great video! Is there a gimbal that will support the Gopro 5 black with the external mic adapter? Thanks !
hey this is some good info man. what is that mic that you have on your chest at the end there? how is it working? and where could i get that?
Is this port useful for charging in parallel when we use go pro during shoot with vlog and charging?
Hmm.. I wonder if this would work with the new Yi 4K+ camera.
Do you think the adapter will work with a Sony wireless mic?
powered plus had some clipping, it was just a bit too loud. perhaps mic placement
Can you use this from a distance of 20 ft or so?
will the mic adapter work with a USB C extension cable? For my setup i need a longer cord...
what I am looking for is a microphone for GoPro hero 5 black and iPhone 7 plus that can record my voice clearly while standing 30 feet away from it. any idea, any recommendation? thanks
Hi from Dublin. Great video, thank you. For recording bass guitar with a Go Pro 5 & the Go Pro adaptor and an External RODE Pro Mic, should I select powered or non powered or plus or standard?? Cheers. Niall
Will this adapter work with the GoPro Hero 7 Silver?
Hi, i'm using the Rode Video Mic Go. Which audio setting should i use? After the gopro update, the standard mode is with the non powered mic
With the fifty dollar USB attachment and an update you can change the setting on the GoPro 5 to a line in? Therefore allowing user to mix sound via a mixing board for live band recording?
is it a 5 pin adapter and will it work with other action cams
Wait so that adapter doesnt have a mic on it I thought the l shap adapter you pluhhed in was the whole thing. Plug that in and its a mic
Can you recommend on a mic(not a rode) that is not so big so i can put it in my helmet?Something like Sony ECMCS3(but not this one).
And that will work with this adapter.
thanks
aren't there any usb type c rode mic available?
Would it work on the session
Hi. Thankyou for the review. Im new to Gopro, but have got myself a gopro hero 5 along with a Feiyu G5 gimbal. Unfortunately, theres audio issues with the build in mic when using with a gimbal. But since this gopro audio adapter is relatively big/heavy, it would definitely affect the gimbal's motors, so I was hoping to attach the audio adapter to the gimbal handle itself, but this would require the adapter to be connected to the gopro for an extension cable. Do you know if the adapter still works if it was connected via some sort of usb-c extension cable to the gopro? Many thanks
One Question: You also can charge your battery with a Powerbank while use the Microphone Adapter?
I see the GoPro AMCCC-301 3.5mm Mic Adaptor on your page just below your video for 20 bucks @ G.C. will that work for the hero 5 black???
Hi mate does this work on the hero 3?
Plus option sounds a bit like it's clipping. Definitely record without the plus option and boost later if need be if there is no noticeable hiss with the normal mode.
Do you use a specific input mode? (line in, mic, standard)?
I would like to run my guitar mixing board into the 3.5mm adapter for the hero 5 Black to obtain a cleaner sound than just using the camera by itself and recording the sound from my amp in an open room. Which mic setting would you recommend using on the hero 5 audio preferences for this situation ?
Is it worth it if I connect my mixer do it so I can record my jams?
sorry if I disturb you again, I have the mic adapter but I still have to buy microphone. I want to spend maximum around 30 euros and at the same time have a good quality audio... I'm very confused... What is the microphone you used on the video... because you sent me two links and the socond one (Lavalier) I can't afford!
if I were to get it and use just a regular mic to help my voice sound better since mine is low and I make auto vlogs
Hello, a question please. I dabble with video recording a bit, but not an expert in any way. I never used my GoPro 5 hero black with a MIC, just camera's mikes; and whatever sound was recorded on the videos came out ok. Meaning I heard the sound on both ears using my headphones or earbuds (I use them a lot, mainly to avoid bothering other people). I never even questioned if the sound was stereo or mono because it was not important to me. What was important is that I heard the videos on BOTH channels. Yesterday for the FIRST time I used a little lapel mic with the $50 adapter that allows you to record using a mike. But the sound that came out only sounds on ONE channel / ear, and that really bothers me. Also when editing the clips using Vegas Pro 16, the same thing, I can only hear sound on one channel. You would think Vegas Pro should be able to split the "one channel sound" so that I could hear it on both channels, and it probably can! but I am just not familiar with this issue and how to fixit using VP16 if there is a way.
Meanwhile, not the end of the world, but I was wondering if you have an idea of what I am talking about? and if so, how could I fix the problem?
TIA E.M.
Hi Jordan,
Quick question for you.
In the beginning of the video, when you are inside, you are super clear and the sound is great as well.
I am looking to get either a gopro 5 Hero or something else, but I kind of do not want to walk around with a dslr with a shotgun mic if I don’t have to, but the gopro sound is not great either.
What camera and mic are you using at the beginning of the video?
Ozcan
what is the pin mic you use? i couldn't catch what you said, Rode pin mic?
Would a USB-C extension cable with this still allow the go pro adapter to work?
I'm thinking of making a custom handle and mounting the adapter inside the handle, at least that's the plan.
Or ill just end up getting a zoom H1 and externally get my audio.
Seems like this adapter is necessary for capturing audio from a mixer for band and such.. Thoughts?
What would you recommend for in-helmet audio? I am using a Sony AS20 with lapel mic and when I get up to highway speeds, the audio is very bad. I have tried the standard foam mic cover and have tried a deadcat, but if you go over some of my videos, you will see what I mean by bad audio at highway speeds.
not only did they mess up with this 2 ton audio adapter but if you take pictures its only in 4:3 ratio not 16:9. Unless I'm blind as hell and there is a setting. Does anyone know if there is a setting to go from 4:3 to 16:9 size pics?
Suitable for b pro5 ae mark 2 ?
anyone confirm powered means phantom power?
thank you
I have a gopro hero 4 with the Saramonic G microphone with usb male on the mic. Im looking to upgrade to gopro 5 or6. So I'm thinking the my saramonic mic would fit? any feedback appreciated.. Thanks
Unfortunately, no. The newer GoPro cameras all use USB-C, and the only luck I've had with connecting a mic to them is using the external adapter shown in this video with a mic attached over 3.5mm cable.
Jordan Keyes Ok. Go figure. More profit for Gopro. Thanks for sharing your video and feedback
Do you know the exact size of the adapter?
Very interesting video & comparison of the GoPro modes, IMHO this "Non powered Plus" setting sounds best! Not muffled noises. Clear voice.
NonPowered+ was the best for the Hammer & Anvil mic I tested with, definitely. For the Pinmic, Standard worked really well.
Jordan Keyes I'd agree with Gabriel as well, the non powered plus setting sounded the best.
i bought a new go pro hero 5 black, and wanna have better sound because i work for TV station and sometimes when i go travel I prefer to use this small device instead of my big camera , but sound is not good . now first of all could you tell me can I use GoPro hero 5 black for tv broadcasting ? and the second one exactly what kind of microphone should i buy
Good Audio feedback, but also wanted to see how the actual mic was connected to the gopro5.
Where can I get that pin mic?
Sir, i'm using Red Buffalo action cam for now. The problem is, i never found Mic adapter for my action. I've tried looking at any store, like always never fpund it. How can i solve it? What type of mic adapter which is suitable for my cam.
Tq sir
nice vid bro
In gopro 6 you should have same options but only reads not available!
nice job
work with yi 4k?
You forgot to mention that the gopro audio adaptor works only on TRS audio adaptor.
Bro whete r u from??
I want to know if you can charge it while you are using an external mic. It definitly looks like it but that doesn't mean it does.
N-rijder yes u can
Last test is the best.
