      See my separate comment further down for details:
      you *can’t* record internally/backup recording when connected via bluetooth to a smartphone. Not possible. You *can* trigger a recording if transmitter is in bluetooth mode *and* not connected to a smartphone (blue blinking light) - but if connected to a smartphone via bluetooth the recording button does nothing but angrily buzz and red light goes on and off again.

    Hi David, nicely done 🙂
    1) If you have manually paired one Microphone / Transmitter to another device by Bluetooth, e.g. your mobile phone, it will NOT automatically re-pair to the DJI receiver when you put everything back into the DJI case. You have to put the Mic / Transmitter into its WiFi, not Bluetooth pairing mode before the resync will work.
    2) I would also set 32 bit record up as that gives you something to rescue with more latitude in post from the Microphone / Transmitter recording. Note: the 32 bit recording is on the Mic / Transmitter only, it is not in 32 bit format when being transmitted to the DJI receiver.
    3) You can switch off the function of the PWR button on the Mic / Transmitter which allows you to switch-on or off the noise reduction, so that it doesn't accidentally allow it to be switched.
    4) If you've set auto record to ON and locked the record button, you can stop / start the recording from the receiver.

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. BTW you were not the only one not checking the low pass filter setting.

    I don't know about 1 being pared at a time. But if you keep them in Bluetooth for the pocket 3 then put them in the case, they 100% stayed paired to your pocket 3 when you take them out. They do not default back to the receiver

    Biggest question for me was, why was the low cut on as default? just discovered that myself over the weekend. Also noticeably lower gain levels than my other mics. DJI law mic still out of stock in the UK, looking forward to picking one of those up.... thanks David! appreciate the video.

    That routing path is more important for the longevity of the 90 degree connector than the "yank out" resistance. Trust me, back from the days of using wireless packs on my guitar...those 90 degree connections SUCK if they're not stabilized well. Flexing them back and forth nearly always ends up wearing it out, and boy howdy are those teeny tiny connectors difficult to rewire and repair. The routing detail behind the clip is a nice design feature to mitigate that for sure.

  • @kneepayne
    @kneepayne 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Thanks for this. Your original video was one of many that caused me to cancel my order because I could not stand the audio out of the DM2. I agree that this is kind of (mostly) DJI's fault. This high-pass filter should NOT have been on by default. I know the DM1 had that, and I turned it off. Rode did not have this filter that I noticed. I don't recall the filter having such a huge effect on the DM1 audio, but my memory could betray me. So now, I have one issue with the DM2. The big-ass logo and reflective case that is also transparent showing the texture + detail of the electronics. The Rode suffered from this nonsense too, but I found some matte stickers on Etsy to cover it up. A lav mic should not be a distraction, and draw no much attention to itself than what is absolutely necessary.

  • @StevoJacobs

    After going through 2 separate sets of DJI Mic 2's I had to return them. I was getting strange intermittent static & noise aberrations while using the DJI Lav Mic. Not sure what that's about, but I didn't trust it for my work related content. Sticking with the DJI Mic 1... I'm considering trying the Rode Wireless Pro, but don't like the whole cable thing for Smart Phones. Prefer the clean attachments from DJI... However, I think I have a work around for an adapter from another Mic set that would make the Rode Pro connect with a USB-C to USB-C attachment. Could you do a quick video with the low cut settings for the Rode. Curious sot see how that sounds on and off... with and without lav.

      You need to set it back from Bluetooth mode to Receiver mode. While turned on, press and hold the record button in the mic. The connection LED will switch from blue (=Bluetooth mode) to green (=receiver mode), and connection with the receiver will function again.

    So here's a question......
    I use my DSLR sometimes, then my phone and then my GoPro and the audio can be drastically different between the three. So which mic's would be better for internal recording? My phone makes a horrible hiss sound so I have to edit the audio. My GoPro generally always sounds as good as my DSLR but with my current mic, the audio can start to fade and sound like in a well then immediately goes back to normal. My devices or my cheaper mics? I use Synco currently but really would like a good set that will record internally. Suggestions/recommendations?

    It sounds a lot better after the latest firmware update also, I was using just the transmitter and it sounded like noise reduction was on all the time and it's much better now, My guess is with the transmitter only it defaulted to the low cut but didn't show it in the camera menu.

      Professional audio folk here, I would NEVER turn a lpf on at the source.

    Thanks for the review and updates to your previous review. No shame in being wrong when you're cool enough to set the record straight.
    I do wish a screw-on lav feature was an option for use with professional lav mics.
    The built-in noise reduction constantly varies the sound quality which is destructive. Always best to apply noise reduction in post. Always.
    It's great that filmmakers have so many compact and affordable options for audio. These may lack some of the features and performance of professional systems, but they are waaaay better than using on-camera microphones. Audio, is so, so, so very important. I'm glad that DJI is giving Rode some competition, which encourages improvements that users benefit from. Life is good.

I've paired my Mic 2 to my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra via Bluetooth and the noise/wind reduction does not work as the camera/voice recorder apps don't have that feature.
    So if a person is a smartphone content creator...they will need to pick up the kit that has the Rx in order to have Noise Reduction

    The Rode is significantly brighter in the top end and so seems more ‘present’ than the DJI. I’m not keen on the shiny plastic finish of the Rode though tbh. Swings and roundabouts …..

    Benefit of DJI clip retainer for the wire is that it will “lock” ANY lav mic. The Rode unit will only lock lav mics that have the lock. I suppose you could still wrap the wire around it’s clip if it fits without pinching the wire. Thanks for the helpful reviews!

      Yeah, if you look at the packages side by side, and factor in the price of 2 dji lavs, the Dji mic 2 is actually more expensive than the Røde package - dji costs less money for «a» package, but more expensive if you want lavs as well

  • @PrestonGladd
    @PrestonGladd 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    One issue with having the transmitter record locked on is that you can’t switch the transmitter into Bluetooth mode without going into settings on receiver and turning it off. (So if you want to hot swap from receiver to pocket 3 etc. you can’t do it easily) Also if your using Bluetooth on your iPhone / insata360 camera etc you can not record internally. For noise reduction I wish they would allow us to disable it completely. I have accidentally hit it a few times now. Otherwise, it is a great system, I think it’s more geared toward content creators than it is professionals, but for me, having ability to connect it to Bluetooth devices is what allows it to stay in my bag. I also have the rode wireless pro system but I don’t carry it unless it’s for specific reason..

      If connected with a smartphone via bluetooth the internal recording feature is disabled on the transmitter, I made a video about it a couple of weeks back - dji «informs» you about this hidden pretty well on the website :/ So only good quality option without the receiver is *not* connecting the mic to the smartphone, use internal recording, and then sync in post :/

    When you turn off the low cut filter the DJI 2 sounds better (most reviewers didn't turn it off, what I seen on TH-cam ), but still the competition sounds better, in my opinion Hollyland systems are currently best . The only advantage the Dji2 mic has it's part of an ecosystem so that's a big plus for some.

    Mate, Those mics were not supposed to be tested by being carried near to the mouth. By doing that, you are making it easy for DJI. All the tests should show how strong a wireless mic can pick voice when it’s hanged on a shirt or using a Lavalier Mic attached.

    I recorded a bunch of interviews at SHOT Show. I used two DJI mics, and two Rode mics. The Rodes have a TON of background noise. The DJIs pickup the person wearing it, and anybody directly left or right of them, but not.a whole lot of the background noise. As a matter of fact I had to add some extra background sound that I captured with the Rode mics by just recording in a common area for about twenty minutes.

    on the mystery test the #1 is the dji, the sound is more muffled, audible even on my smartphone speakers in 360p quality on the video -and yes, the dji mic 2 is much clearer if held in front of the mouth like you do, but the problem is: these are supposed to be clipped to the chest, or clipped onto a jacket lapelle, and when worn like the the muffled-iness of the Dji Mic 2 is even more noticable compared to the Røde Wireless Pro. Although the Dji Mic 2 package «is cheaper» than the Røde package, they cost approx the same if adding lavaliers to the dji mic 2 (which might make’m more expensive than the røde package). And to get the clearest sound possible from the dji mic 2’s the cabled lav is necessary, and places it closer in sound to the Røde (but without the lav on the Røde).

So no, you *can’t* record internally if using bluetooth to connect to a smartphone, so *only* way of getting better audio if one only has the transmitter and a smartphone is to record video using internal phone mic, and use the Dji Mic 2 transmitter as a disconnected recording device, *then* it will record internally, but not in bluetooth mode.
