    I have been sworn off wireless audio recording gear for years until now. I've used wireless systems in the past and have lost signal many times , losing irreplaceable audio. The DJI mics have restored my faith in wireless audio gear. The backup recording is the feature that ultimately made me buy these but I also love the magnetic clip, manual settings and mobile phone compatibility.

  • @WillNewcomb
    @WillNewcomb 9 місяців тому +1

    Yes the DJI has set the pace for years. But it has its problem: interference when using most connected lavs!
    There are several excellent wireless mics at a fraction of the cost: Fulaim X5; Boya Boyalink; Hollyland Lark Max.
    You do NOT need to pay $350 for quality audio.

    Ben, just coming back to this excellent video. I finally have time to start using these properly. I have been testing various scenarios, and it's all going very well. Took me awhile to work out how to get a sync'd stereo track, but with one mic on each channel, then the local backup track all working in Davinci but THERE WE GO !! Listen, probably a stupid question, so apologies in advance. Would you ever use a boom mic (something like the Sony one I have that connects to the hot shoe) + both these Mics? I will give you a scenario. My 3 year old is running around the Garden, I want my wife and I with the DJI Mics on, but I don't want to miss the Audio from my daughter speaking/laughing etc. Is this even possible? as clearly I can't give my daughter one of the Mics, she will pull it off her clothes immediately. Just wondering how you as an experienced professional would do that? or is it really one or the other? I can't see how I would be able to use all three anyway, unless I record the Video clip with the Boom Mic, and import only the local direct recordings from each Mic and mix them together in post? mmmm maybe I just answered my own question .. but what do you think?

    • @benjohnsoncreative
      @benjohnsoncreative  10 місяців тому

      The only issue I see is that you wouldn’t boom one of the Sony ECM mics because they only connect via hotshoe (unless you have the ECMG1 and it only works with certain cameras). But you could definitely use a shotgun mic on camera or boom a different shotgun mic to capture her audio. Then you would record the DJI mics internally (not using the receiver) and sync it all in post.
      Hope that helps!
