Sorry about single channel audio on 32bit sample (rookie mistake). I've been corrected in the comments about clipping 32bit Float. You can distort the recording if you exceed the maximum sound pressure level (SPL) of your microphone. Either way you can ruin a file. My explanation was kept to a very basic level. People who know audio already know how the technology works so it's best if I explain it on a basic level for us that aren't familiar. There's plenty of technical channels if you need a deeper understanding. Thank you.

Looks great, sound good also. If I hadn’t just bought a mic and zoom F3 I would have got this for sure. However, I think in the long run I’m glad I got F3 as I means every mic I use is 32 bit recording but I would still consider this for quicker and more convenient usage. Also, I own other comica audio and they had compression which is a little hard but yours sounds great.
@@rw3452 that's definitely a benefit of having every mic 32bit and I also agree that this is fantastic as quick and easy option. Comica mics weren't that good in the past, they were ok for random videos but not great. I almost passed on the vm30 but glad I took it as it really showed me they stepped up.
@@AndyLSB yep! I'm really surprised by how much they've stepped up in the last year 🙌🏾
หลายเดือนก่อน
this is incredible! i mean the noise supression is something i would not use at all, software solutions like "supertone clear" are so much better ... so but maybe for some it could be of use.
It’s a pity all these microphones doesn’t have remote recording, so when you start recording on your camera they start. Having to push 2 buttons to have video and audio linked may make you loose some sounds. I’ll wait for next generation, having already the Zoom m3 who has the same problem. Thanks for your enthusiasm and great work
Super nice! Audio is my weakest point on shoots due to laziness, haha. I always just use lav mics even though i own a Sennheiser 416. But I just use that one for voice overs and it stays in my booth.
@@HezJP yeah someone else pointed out my 32bit sample was left channel, such a fail. I had the mic for so long and then rushed the video the day before release.
@@AltCine Very good from comica once again. Offering incredible value for money with a very nice package including everything you are going to need. I just ordered the comica boom x d pro wireless mics for only 125 euros and they have all the features I need (such as internal recording and safety mode), a nice case and 2 lavaliers in case you want to connect them onto the mics. So versatile in such an affordable price.
You can't clip 32 bit floating point audio, You can overload the mic capsule with a too high SPL causing distortion before it hits the recorder resulting in a ruined recording, The beauty of something like this will be that you don't have to position your mic too close to source and risk overloading the mic capsule and also the gain level is not so critical because it can be corrected in post whereas with 24bit audio its much more critical because you can clip the audio as well as the capsule and at 16 bit its even tighter tolerance.
Not gonna lie, the range sucks for such the price and you were pretty much in open space. I do location sound/mixer and my tiny little Fulaim X5 can go through a wall, out a door and headed towards the end of my backyard before it cuts so it's perfect for location sound when you need to be out of the way. We bit expensive to risk it loosing signal 40ft from the receiver. This is the same issue as my Fulaim WM500 UHF system... it goes the exact distance as yours.. boom done lol

Hi~ Glad to see your question, our microphone includes both the single-transmitter VM40 and the dual-transmitter VM40 COMBO. When the stereo mode is activated, you’ll only hear sound from one ear if using a single VM40. However, with two VM40s, you can experience dual-channel sound. We hope our answer helps you. Thanks.
can you tell me if the vm30 mic syncs with the vm40 receiver? as a L+R option without spending the $400+ on the dual bundle? I already have the vm30 and im kinda dreading selling it for the vm40 dual bundle cuz its such a good mic.
Dear friend, thank you for liking the VM30, but the VM40 and VM30 receivers are not compatible, because the VM40 has a one to two signaling protocol, while the VM30 only has a one to one transmission protocol.
@@LouisLuzuka Our product has been designed to do 32G internal storage, there is no SD storage option, you do have a need for SD storage yes? We will upload your requirements. Thank you for your support!
TimeCode would be awesome, but if I understand correctly you can still use a TC device with passthrough from the TRS (on mic or receiver) to record both TC and (scratch?) audio to camera... PS. Still working hard on my pico-timecode project. 😉
@@NeilHesterSkateboarding ya, I recently picked up the Diety system. Tc1 & PR2’s. It’s so much better than waveform syncing. I could probably use a shotgun connected to a PR2 but the all in one system would be nice.
@@AnthonyMoreschi As a predominantly audio guy I think shotguns are somewhat over rated as a catch all solution by camera people but it really does depend on the job you’re working on. I’d rather be a bit more versatile and not have my recording device tied to a shotgun mic but if you mostly use a shotgun then it’s probably your ideal product or if you have alternative recording devices and want to keep rigging minimal I can see its appeal.
Wait you're right, it can double as a foley/ambient recorder 😯 Quality might not be as good as a field recorder with dual channel mics, but much more convenient for mid-low budget filmmakers or minimalist travelers!
As a fan of yours, if I may politely observe something in your videos, it appears you look at yourself talking in the monitor instead of right at the camera.
I got this mic delivered today and I got to tell you I'm a little bit disappointed. I bought the mic for a couple of reasons. I already have a wireless solution for my camera and have been very happy with it. However this device offered a built in transmitter and a onboard recording. I use a separate device for recording and thought it would be great to have a device that offered an all in one solution. However this device has a major design flaw. You cannot monitor your recordings and there is no playback option. I planned to use the mic on my boom pole to record folie at my film locations. Usually I have to use a separate device and it's mics aren't best. This device has no way of listening to what you have recorded on the fly. You have to wait until you load the audio files onto a computer. I am flabbergasted at this oversite. Such a great idea to have a phone app and a mic that has a built in transmitter and recording in 32Bit Float but all for nothing. We must be able to monitor the recordings and have the ability to playback recordings or what's the point.
@@JWS1968 is there another shotgun mic or wireless mic set that allows you to play back the recorded audio? Could you not plug headphones into the wireless receiver to monitor the audio?
@@AltCine Even if you can there is no playback option I just think that's bazar. Who does that, I mean who designs a mic with a record feature but no way to listen back to what you're recording on the fly. It's just a very silly decision to have been made. I mean it's connected to you phone but no transfer or playback option there either. I think there was a real opportunity to make this mic really great and they missed it.
