      @Plantdudejames 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      firmware update is now available but quality sounds very similar. I highly recommend going into settings for the transmitter and turning off the low cut filter that's automatically set to on by default. 🤙🏽

    amazing review BEST REVIEW OUT THERE... everyone else (I watched 4 other vds) was def leaning toward DJI, because of its ease of use, but as a former sound engineer, i care far more about the sound quality then if I can plug into my phone or being discreet, well done

  • @monkeysnark7043
    @monkeysnark7043 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The screw in lavalier with R Pro, is important if you have people moving and using the external mic. The total time for either, is not really important, as who would record for over ten hours in one shift? The Rode does have more accessories than the DJI, and maybe that reflects the price? Definitely, the Rode has more bass to it, low end, off the cuff, good sound quality but the sound quality and features on the M2 are still good.
    Here in the great white north, your basic R Pro kit goes for 549, and the M 2 goes for 499. Yet, for the same price as the R Pro, you can kit the M 2 with the Osmo Mobile 6 at 549, over at Amazon. So for those that don’t need the extra slightly better sound quality and accessories, using their phone for vlogging, the Mobile 6 (including that new firmware update active track 6) with M2 kit, is a better price point choice with the added gimbal.
    Tough call on choice, as I am no fanboy of anything, but am a fanboy of what I need and can use, and price is always a consideration. 🤔Not all of us have an expense account or write off, and getting the same basic “thing” with an added decent gimbal, is always noteworthy.

  • @fpdima
    @fpdima 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    The Rode is a better value If you take into account that the Rode system includes two lav mics and the DJI system does not. Also the Rode has screw on mic attachments so I can use many more higher end lav mics than are available for the non screw on DJI system. I have two really nice Sennheiser lavs that I can use with the Rode. With DJI you are stuck using lesser quality mics. That is why I am leaning towards Rode.

    • @zholud
      @zholud 8 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Which are those lavs that you use? How noticeable is the audio quality compared to lavs that come with rode?

    • @fpdima
      @fpdima 7 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      I currently use the Sennheiser EW G2 and G3 systems with the Sennheiser lav mics. I would definitely get the rode over Dji because I can use much better mics with rode. My only complaint about both of the systems is the built in battery. I like the idea of replaceable rechargeable batteries which is what the older Sennheiser systems use. As of now I am still using my old Sennheisers. As for sound quality I have used rode lavs in the past and the Sennheisers are much clearer to my ears but are also much more expensive.

    • @zholud
      @zholud 6 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      I meant which exactly lav mic do you use? It seems like both rode and dji have 3 volts…which makes it difficult or impossible to use pro lav mics (some do operate in a voltage range which includes 3v - but then it’s suboptimal sound quality I guess?). I was wondering if you have an example of high quality lav mic that works with rode at its max performance…(and yes screw connector absence in dji is a downside but not as much as the quality lav mic support - which is why I wonder how come apart from the connector ride is better than dji if both operate at 3v)

  • @thegenius2OOx
    @thegenius2OOx 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    My take is , hopefully the audio sync issues can be fixed and patched. The storage is not a big deal as 12 hours or so is plenty. And last I dont know if this has been mentioned anywhere but. On the DJI Mic 2, by default the low pass setting is enabled. I have disabled the option and the quality jump is pretty noticable atleast now on par with the rode in which I also have. I just prefer the fact I can work with one transmitter need be and not need to rely on the app to fiddle with my recordings.

    In terms of usability, the DJI Mic 2 wins. Bluetooth, smaller size, adjusting all settings within the receiver etc. But purely from an audio standpoint, Rode is the clear winner. The question when purchasing either one is, what do you want to compromise on.

    Nice review!
    I own several wireless systems, the original Rode Video Wireless, the Deity Connect (both 2.4Ghz systems) and a Sennheiser G3 UHF system. I've been thinking about picking up one of these systems and have been evaluating them. A friend owns the Mic 2 and let me use it for a few days, it's pretty slick for $349.00. The only thing I wouldn't buy it for is the lack of locking 3.5mm inputs. Talent will and does accidentally unplug lavaliere mics when they are moving around, reaching, stretching. I own three OST 801s that I had wired for Sennheiser locking and they don't stay in the Mix 2 transmitters very well. So that rules out the DJI, which is a shame because I like the size, the receiver touch screen, sound quality was decent and the case setup is superior to the Røde.
    Other than that one deal breaker, the Mic 2 is impressive. Plus DJI has the hot shoe accessory that I could use to put the Mic 2 output onto Ch 3 and 4 of my FX6 with no cables via the hot shoe. That's tempting. But I can't, in good consicience, buy a mic where the lavaliere could become unplugged so easily.
    So it's going to be the Røde Wireless Pro for me. My FX6 has TC in also so I can use one of my Tentacle Sync Es, jam sync it with the Røde transmitter, run that into the TC in and still use the Røde output to feed the XLRs on the FX6 handle. If the transmitters drop out, I will have synced 32-bit float files as backup. For my use case, Røde also wins.

  • @edv.fernandez6241
    @edv.fernandez6241 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I appreciate your review as I am trying to decide between the Dji mic 2 and the Rode Wireless Pro. I was inclined to go with Dji and in fact I had ordered the Dji but cancelled the order after reading non favorable reviews mostly associated with audio delay issues and out of sync mics. The Dji looks to be easier to setup and change options than the Rode including the fact that it is much easier to setup onboard recording than on Rode but i am looking for a semi-professional to a professional experience. I am not sure what to do. Camera is a Fujifilm X-T5. Thank you.

  • @DroseMr
    @DroseMr 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Will the rode adopt the ninja v sync config timecode time? Do either record the 32bit straight through w/o choppin up the files or one rec one file?

    • @jacek5384
      @jacek5384 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Nope. DJI Mic2 neither Rode Wireless Pro can synchronise timecode with Atomos Ninja V. I mean timecode embedded into video file. Or one may try to use this timecode over audio track but IMHO timecode over audio track as Rode Wireless Pro has it is pretty much useless. DJI Mic2 does not support timecode in any form at all. To synchronize timecode with Atomos Ninja V one will need Atomos Connect back for the Ninja plus Atomos Ultrasonic blue plus compatible audio recorder like Zoom F3 equipped with optional bluetooth module. Also Zoom F2-BT is compatible with this timecode setup and Zoom F6 plus BT module and Zoom F8 N Pro. BUT then you have your timecode synced but no wireless sound recording in camera. BUT with this timecode solution one can synhronise two, three or more compatible cameras and also two three or more audio recorders.

    Great review!
    My Rode Videomic Go has cost me HOURS of footage wasted... It picks up an unbearable clicking interference sound when my Camera (Canon EOS m50) is connected to Wifi (which I need for remote shooting). I tried everything possible to work around it with no luck, aside from disabling Wifi which is massively inconvenient for my set up.
    Just grabbed my DJI 2 kit and the experience is so much better. I assume the Rode Wireless Pro is WAY better than my cheap Rode Videomic Go, but the experience has left such a bitter taste in my mouth that I'm loyal to DJI as of now.

      Bro. This video was comparing the DJI and the Rode. Hollyland makes solid gear, I would definitely recommend them but I didn’t show them in this video for the reason that the DJI was new and so was the Rode. Also you are skimming over the 32 bit float that is offered in these microphones and is not available in any hollyland hybrid mic system. In my opinion the rode is on a completely different level from hollyland. DJI might be a little closer.

    Hi, recently I bought a DJI Mic 2 and I'm very disappointed because the only way to make the standalone recordings usable is to set the TX gain to +12dB, but they still have to be boosted a lot in post.
    I turned off the Low pass filter, I tried 32 and 24 bits, I tried everything but the records are still very quiet when I put the TX on my chest.
    Is it normal ? Does somoene managed to records something on a dji mic 2 without having to drastically boost in post ?

    I love my Rode Wireless Pro system. I keep it in my crossover bag with my Insta 360 Flow and a USB C to USB C cable, and I'm good to go for all-day filming on my iPhone 15 Pro.
    I really love the clip to easily use the receiver on various hotshoe mounts.

    If you used the same lavs on both mics with internal recording, do you think the audio would be almost the same? I think the DJI2 is much easier to operate in the field, but the Rode internal mic sounds way better and it has the screw mount for the lav. If lavs sounds the same on internal recording, however, I would probably go with DJI2. Thanks for any input!

    Hi Ben, great review. Totally agree that rode sounds much better and the dji is plastic sounding. Just want to check if you turn off the low cut filter on the dji ? It’s said to improve the dji sound. I’m leaning more towards the rode for sound quality ! Tqvm

    Just subbed.
    I’m using a single DJI Mic2 transmitter with a receiver connected to my Sony ZV-1.
    I have the transmitter with gain set to 0, it’s +9 on the receiver and +1 on the Sony ZV-1. Is that right?
    I did a test using my Audio-technica AT875R shotgun mic going through a GoXLR to Slobs and also on the DJI Mic2 at the same time.
    I recorded on the DJI Mic2 with the Lav mic and without it and also both again with noise cancelation and without it.
    My room is slightly reverb but when I listen to the comparisons, the audio from the DJI Mic2 sounds weak and like I’m speaking to someone through a window and the shotgun mic audio sounds full and powerful.
    Could you point me to some tutorials for how you adjust the wireless audio in post please?

    Go for RODE if you’re looking for quality. But if you have a DJI action cam (Action 4) or Pocket 3, the Mic 2 is incredibly convenient when you can record audio wirelessly with only a transceiver to the cam.

    Who needs timecode in this time? Every editing program nowadays has a sync function which works 100%. And aesthetically the rode is a bric on your shirt. Terrible. And this Rode program which you call a Pro is for me a con. Who needs these Audio-Functions? Nobody. You do it all in your DAW or your editing Programm. And the con is- you have to do all the important changes in this and can't do it on the fly during filming. And is there anybody out there who "markers" the audio while filming? I don't think so.

    very good.. I am still trying to decide Rode or DJI.. The Rode does seem more useable though and being able to administer whilst everything is in the charge case is very helpful also being able to manage everything on the app is a big deal as if you have ever had to manage settings on the device that is a big risk when you are actually on location, you want it all set via the app. I like the look of the DJI but the Rode does seem more useable and I think sounds better.

      I really think you will have a great piece of gear either way that you go! For what I do, I love the rode and I make the size work to the best of my ability. Those lav mics are a life saver on set if you're concerned about size. But the DJI is very travel friendly and easy to slap on a shirt without much problem.

    As someone who has worked in broadcasting for 20+ years, I can see a benefit in both. In the production department, I would go with the Rode Wireless Pro. Production has the time and motivation to fix audio and video in post. However, the news department would benefit from the automatic noise reduction in the field. This department has no time for frills. They need to get the story out fast. No time to mess with audio and video. The people are now known as MMJs (Multimedia Journalists). They no longer have dedicated camera people to do the video and audio for the journalist. Nowadays the usually female journalist has to do it all. They have to source the story, get the interview, get the B-Roll, write the story, edit the story, detail the graphics and other data for the story and finally upload the story to our video servers.
    The thing I would like to see for both systems is a threaded output for plugging in a 3.5 MM to XLR male cable for a professional camera. I would also like to see some type of mount design for mountng the receiver to the professional camera. The hotshoe is already being used by a camera light.
    Anyway, thats my 2 cents.
    Great review video by the way.

      I'm team Rode but there are view things they could've done better
      1. The Cases
      Why are there 2 cases in this particular design? A practical rectangular case for the receiver and the transmitter + a travel bag for the case and the accessories . Just like DJI does.
      2. The Receiver
      I miss a built-in microphone and the possibility to record internally on the receiver. A connection for the lavalier mics would also have been very nice. Then you could use it as a 3rd "transmitter"
      3. Missing Accessories
      a) A Cold Shoe Mount Adapter - i know you can use the clip, but it doesn't fit well on Tilta Cages, for example
      b) so many cables, but no TRRS Cable included
      4. Missing functionality
