Connecting A Microphone to GoPro Hero 10 Black - 2 Ways To Do It
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ต.ค. 2021
- In this video, I am showing 2 different methods on how you can connect a microphone to your GoPro Hero 10 Black. The first and easiest way is to use the media mod as it has the required ports & cold shoes which are also needed for mounting. The second method is to use the microphone adapter that GoPro sells for earlier GoPro's. It is fully compatible with the GoPro Hero 10 Black. Lastly, I go over a few microphones that I like to use with my GoPro's, We discuss the pros and cons of both styles of microphones.

I can’t believe in 2022 there isn’t just a Bluetooth mic available that connects wirelessly and directly to the GoPro or even just a mic jack on the GoPro itself! This smells like a company trying to make even more money from its customers! Thanks for the video!
Wow, you nailed it. Good point!
Bluetooth isn’t reliable for audio transmission. Too much loss of data and latency.
Is it mandatory for gph10 users to use media mod or gp mic adapter by go pro company for external mic or can we use pass through door in go pro hero 10 and directly use type c mic adaptor other than go pro brand ?
to be fair, that is what capitalism is all about isn't it?
might have to do with the waterproof rating?
I actually find the the mic's on the media mod help cut down on wind noise during outdoor use. Nice tutorial on using a mic with your Hero 9/10. I have all the gear to do this, but most of the time I use the cheap foam winds-layer when I'm filming outdoors. Just because it's faster and easier.
Thank You so much! The only video that was able to answer my questions about mics and the GoPro clearly, succinctly, and thoroughly. Staff at Best Buy are clueless, as are so many here on the inter-tubes. I guess I'll need to spend some more cash on a "media mod" or that Ubangi-Stomp thingy. Damn.
Super film. Dziękuję za Twoją pracę.
Great information, thanks a lot Sean. Would have really liked to hear some audio samples of the different microphones though.
Indeed I would’ve been a good idea. Perhaps I should make a video with audio comparisons from a variety of popular microphones
Great video! Thanks for going over all the different options. I’m a fairly new gopro user and picked up the hero 10. Definitely going with the Ulanzi + adapter + rode mic after watching this tutorial and reading some comments. Thanks for including links too.
Good choice a lot of people do you prefer that setup. Thanks for watching
Thanks for walking through the different options you have! I appreciate it!
Simple & clear presentation. Thank you
Excellent thank you, very easy to understand and follow for a newbie to gopro 👍
An another helpful video of comparison about exactly these both of cases that I want to see. Thanks
Just what I’ve been looking for, excellent 👌
Shawn,
Excellent Tutorial Video On Hooking Up 2 Different Microphones To Your Go Pro Hero 10! Thank You.
Hello from the UK
I watched with great interest at your explanation of these two setups.
My preferred option is the ulanzi cage.
However to prevent microphone intrusion into the field of veiw have you considered a smaller form factor microphone such as the Edutige 001.
I would be interested in your thoughts and possible comparisons with other leading microphones.
Thanks buddy.
Much appreciated.
Great channel btw 👍
.
Wow I didn't even know about the ulanzi until this video! So easy to understand! Thanks!! Will use this for my trip to Peru and Machu Picchu!
I only listen to this dude when it comes to Gopro or DJI. Just wanted to share an issue I had with the RODE wirelessME and the GoPro 10 media mod, In post my audio had excessive clipping and was unusable, and all the online sheep "me" agreed that I had a failed 3.5mm TRS cable and needed to replace it with an amazon 2 pack special, $20 later same results and no audio improvement, also this audio clipping only effected my RODE mic not my DJI mic. So, I contacted RODE and provided an audio sample and tech support was lost for words and on their way to the mail room with my warranty replacement until I found out it was an issue with the audio setting when using the media mod. If you plan on purchasing and or using the RODE wirelessME with the media mod, you have to set it to "standard mic" if you set it to "powered mic" or "powered +" you're going to have a bad time and try to regurgitate everything you just said. Losing audio clips absolutely sucks! if you're a struggling content creator.
A big problem with the Media Mod approach is that every time you need to change the battery or memory card, you have to remove the GoPro and Media Mod from whatever mount or grip you're using. And then you have to open up the Media Mod and remove the GoPro completely. Once you change the battery or memory card, you then have to put the whole thing back together again.
Do that two or three times during the day at the side of the road in difficult conditions, and you will soon learn to hate the Media Mod, as I do.
Not only that, the thumbscrew is deeply recessed in the Media Mod, and it's almost impossible to remove it once you tighten it. There is simply no room for your fingers to get in there and get a grip. And the thumbscrew can only be inserted from one side.
Plus my Media Mod fails to register the microphone probably 40% of the time. Sometimes it knows there's a microphone attached. Sometimes it doesn't. You just never know which way it's going to go. My GoPro Hero 9 also overheats inside the Media Mod.
For those reasons, I I think the Mic Adapter plus an Ulanzi Cage is far superior. All you need to do is pop open the side door to change the battery or the memory card. It's so simple and easy.
thanks for the insight. I'm a sound mixer, and looking to do some audio upgrades for our cam assists on shows that are quite gopro heavy. I was wondering how they would feel about the media mod cage, and I suspect they will feel how you do. Sounds like you're working in the real world, so your comments are certainly useful. I think I'll go mic adapter and cage too. sounds like the adapter works on 8/9/10s, all of which we have.
Excellent comment, thanks for the heads up. I often have to change my battery 3-5 times each time I ride and make a video.
💪😃
Yeah I use the Ulanzi and the mic adapter too, works very well and fast to switch out battery and SD card etc...😎
Was about to buy the media mod before reading your comment. Now I’m going with the Ulanzi. Thanks for the heads up!
I’m using Ulanzi for my Hero 5 too and it works a charm
Awesome details on how to use Mic. Greetings from Malaysia
Very helpful! Thank you for the comparison!
Very good explanation. Thanks!!!
These cams are amazing. I just bought a Hero 10 Black today. I also have a Hero black 7 and 8
Very informative, thank you!
I was planning on getting the Rode Go 2 but then I heard DJI's releasing a wireless mic too so now I'm holding off a bit and see which is better! DJI's charging pod is tempting though!
Thank you! Very well explained video - and not too long!
Thanks for this video! So helpful!
Super helpful - thanks!
Thank you for the video! I ordered the wireless microphone & mod case thanks to the links & explanation you provided
Thank you very much. I’m glad you enjoyed the video
I have old Hero 4 silver, I just use the small USB in with an adapter to mini TRS to XLR.
Works great!..
Thank you very well made needed this info 💯
Thanks for information for the microphone works pretty good I like the first one much easier and better sounds clear also ☺️
The best video iv seen explaining about external microphones 👌
Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed
Thanks For This Video. Great Info.
Solved my problem! Thanks so much, great video!
This was brilliant. Thank you.
Love your vids man.
This is so damn perfectly explained 👍
Very good presentation with a clear and concise content.
Yess....
If you don't set your Rode Wireless mic to "powered mic" then when using quikcapture there will be an added wait time +3 seconds after the camera turns on to record because the camera refreshes itself to "powered mic" since you are starting it up with "standard mic". This is important to know because if you are using quikcapture and there is a 3 second delay after the beeps, then it'll cut off every start of audio you want to record. If powered mic is the setting with wireless go mic then there will be at most only 1 second delay after pressing quikcapture (the camera will not need to refresh itself from standard mic to powered mic, and thus it won't have a 3 second delay)
Some great information thanks for sharing
Thank you. I need the media mod to connect the wireless go 2 hehe. Thanks for showing
Great video!
Great information, thank you sir.
I love how you took flossy J's background idea with the gray platform and a plant in the corner. Creativity is not limitless.
Who? It’s called a desk. Everyone who films at a desk looks exactly the same
Thx, great info.
Thank you this video helped.
This is the exact question I had!
Awesome video and very informative.Just bought the new gopro 10 and i am looking for a solution to put my new wireless mics on it!!
Good information Thank you
Thanks! This is helpful
Helped me to get it set up correctly first time every time with my Rode wireless. Thanks
Thank you very helpful
Enjoyed yes perfect products from GoPro need to buy thank you
Video is almost a year but this helps me a lot. I hope whoever made this video is doing good. Keep safe
Thanks for the info
Very useful Review
Another great video. I just may have to upgrade to the GoPro 10😀😎
What would be the best approach to film outdoor sports (climbing, skiing)? Is the Media Mod enough by itself?
Good video. Saved
Thx for the Video
Non BS information - thanks! Wish I had seen that earlier!
Glad it was helpful!
u answered my questions thanks
Hi! Great video. Speaking of microphones, how about the Deity D4 duo? Is compatible with the GoPros 9 and 10? Thanks.
Nice !
Legend I've been wanting to connect a wireless one not a big mount think you've answered my question! With the rode option cheers
Good info!! I just started doing videos and I am a noob with sound and stuff. :) Btw I just got the Rode mic's that you have in this video! :) They work like a charm on my phone, but not on the GoPro I have. So this video was a good learning of how thing work! :)
Thank you!!
usful video nice
thanks for this video.. great advice.
Glad it was helpful!
Watching this video has answered all my questions. I cant tell you how many circles I’ve been on to get here. Thank you. What I’ve discovered because you explained hoe this 3.5mm mic adapter works is I didn’t realise you need to tell your camera to recognise which one your using? Powered or not? I didn’t get that. Any how now i have I’ve connected some Roland 3.5mm jack Binuaral mics and now am getting 3 D sound on this incredible Hero 10… 👍🏽
Well done video.
Any recommendations on settings in the GoPro with a mic module Standard/Standard+ when using the WIreless Go II system? What receiver gain settings do you recommend for the Wireless Go II with the GoPro setup?
Nice review! Pls review the DJI mic as well. It looks interesting!
good video - i use the media mod
For those that are using external mic and not a Rode Mic showed in the video, make sure your mic is in TRS otherwise it's not going to work!!!! Some of the aftermarket mic came with TRRS mic plug and you need to buy the TRRS > TRS adaptor for the mic to work!!! The Rode Mic showed in the video is already in TRS that's why he didn't use any adaptor, it's just a plugin and play for him...
Hope this help
yes! Thank you very much!
Great. Thank you.
For the wireless unit I see there’s an option for a plug in mic, can this be set up to be a combo input. Say have it record vocals and input a 3.5mm input to record an audio source at the same time?
Hello and thanks for your vids. Just subscribed. Was wondering if I'm able to find a third party mic adapter or do I have to use the ~$50 GoPro version?
quick question for the pro! when using an external mic do you recommend turning the wind reduction setting off, auto, or on?
Thanks dude 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video... But im now on my 3rd Media Mod for my Hero 9 since Nov last year as the port for which the jack goes into becomes loose so it wont hold the jack. They have always been looked after, never dropped or anything like that. Think it must just be very poorly made.
Gopro keeps sending me new ones for free so thats 'ok' but think after Christmas im going to get a Tascam DR-10L. I know this will mean ill have to sync my audio but its a minute job if that so no bother to me and I need something reliable.
Fed up if having to use my gopro audio with wind slayers on with my videos inbetween media mods lol.
I know a few people who use the adapter with a Ulanzi cage and dont seem to have any issues, apart from being 3 times as annoying when the need to swap a a battery occurs. But im just fed up of them now.
Thanks for the great review and comparison in any case 👍🏻👍🏻😃
I have a problem with the sound more on the left side not in stereo is there a way to correct it? I also edit with iMove desk top. Maybe there is a fix in editing?
I am thinking of getting a gopro10 for my youtube vids too. I like that shotgun mic. Hello from the Philippines
nice and direct. thanks
Glad you liked it!
Great video! I picked up the Hohem iSteady Pro 4 Gimbal after watching your video but can you use the media mod with an external mic AND the gimbal?
What kind of port is that lil port underneath the battery of the Gopro, the same hole you plugged the sound adapter in? is it a USB-C? if not what is it? can one plug his USB mic into that port? or better yet, if I have a wireless mic with a lightning male end, is there a workaround to make this compatible with a Gopro 10? maybe like an adapter or something.
perfect Vlog
Wow.... Thanks for the info
Thank you for watching
Thank you very much
Great video
Thanks!
nice info
Hope you may help. I wonder whether it is possible (or not) to connect Zoom H6 (with XLR 48 powered condenser mic) to a GoPro (9-10) via this adapter, like, for example, H6 line out -> 3,5 mm Jack (male/male) -> Adapter -> GoPro 9/10 to have better audio quality recording?
Which Media mod sound power setting should i use with the Rode wireless go2?
Hi very helpful video. You can buy new ulanzi g9 4 case for GoPro 10, it fits better. Does Rode mic can be added to the Ulanzi case as on Media mod at the cold shoe or not? I want to use wireless mic, thank you!
Thanks i chose the method without media mod. For so many reasons im too lazy to write :D
Thank you for the video! With the mic adapter, can you charge the gopro continuously and use an external mic plugged in? I need to charge the gopro as each youtube live session I do is 7-8 hours long (and on a kayak)
Yes indeed you can feed constant power when using either the microphone adapter or the media mod. Both have a USBC port for attaching power banks
Can you connect the DJI mic directly on the GoPro without using a media mod?
I dont believe it’s possible to install any microphone on the GoPro itself.
I’m looking for the same info, but from what I’ve seen, it looks like you’d just connect through the media mod, or mic adapter.
Hey. Dji mic is on my hand right now n i just tried it. I used its type c adapter n open the door of the gopro n connected it. Idk voice from dji will go directly to gopro video or not but at least we can use back up recording. I think we can’t adjust external mic on gopro unless we have gopro media mod. But if we get it, which is not worth while even we don’t use it, we can manage it on gopro as external mic. You’re welcome
That's literally one of the first things he said...🤦♂️
Thank you for the video. Could the Rode double as a communications devise for a motorcycle rider and passenger?
Hi Sean, I recently. bought some cheap mic to my GoPro 10 B but the mic was picking up noise from rubbing against my T-shirt and my body.
I'm doing body weight exercises and would like to know if I would get the same effect with RODE?
For example, if I would go for a wee run, perhaps did some cartwheel along and try to talk as well at the same time, would I hear the mic moving on my clothes along with me talking or just me talking?
I really would like to get the second option and not sure if I can with RODE.
Thank you very good video. Do you know, the usb-c port supports usb-c mic receivers like Saramonic Blink 500 B6? Its receiver has usb-c on it.
Is the first option available for the GoPro Hero Black 8? Or can you add a usb-c to connect to a 3.5mm adapter?
Is the media mod good enough to use in the rain for motovlogging?
Do you think the Rode Wireless Go II used with it's lavalier mic and the GoPro Hero 10 would make a good motovlogging setup? I was thinking attaching the Rode transmitter to the back of my helmet, running the wire through the inside of my helmet so the mic would be near my mouth, then attaching the receiver to the camera which would be mounted on my helmet or any other place on my bike. Thoughts? Currently, I use the Hero 7, Ulanzi housing, GoPro mic adapter and standard lav mic, but this set up has the wire from the lav mic running along the outside of my helmet.
I just broke my Media Mod using it to motovlog. The mic jack is very fragile. After only to short runs around 100 kph I noticed a lot of popping sounds in the footage, that I now know were due to the bad contact in the mic jack caused by the wind making the small amount of unsecured mic cable vubrate violently. Now when I tap the mic plug when in the jack it almost peggs the audio meter. As well, both builtin Mod mics are no longer working. Having a cable from your Wireless go to the Media mod probably wont last long based on my experience. The lav mic cable is much thinner and next time I will take more time to secure it to make sure it does not damage the mic jack. 100$ dollar lesson learned. If I break another media mod I will try the old style adapter.
Good luck
I do outside videos where it can sprinkle heavily or rain at the spur of the moment. I take it that either the media mod or external mic like a Rode will short circuit?
Yes they’re not really designed for moisture
Thank u for this vid
Thank you for watching
