    Good to see how Dji is improving their mics. I did sell my Rode ones, got twice issues with the power on / off button, so they were not too reliable for my needs. What i would like to see is a set up with 4 mics. This would be a dream coming true. Don’t understand why Rode and DJI do not come out with that. Currently have to use Fulaim for bigger talks / Podcasts. Great review as usual, cheers from Germany.

    Love the smaller size of the DJI, but sound quality and the ability to keep your wind filters connected in the case (not to mention download on-mic audio when in the case) still make the rode pro the best choice. DJI's audio is too....tinny? IDK it's just not as robust.

    I've been impressed with DJI getting into these mics, I just KNOW Rode is all in and will keep going so it tilts me a bit in this comparison for sure. $548 for the Osmo Action 4 AND the new MIC 2 is a great bundle...

  • @harryvuemedia5106
    @harryvuemedia5106 3 місяці тому +1

    Best wireless Mic so far. DJi really innovated this Mic 2 that Rode and Deity need to do with their own wireless mics. What I love about the Mic 2 is the 32-bit sound, bluetooth pairing to smartphones without using app, windscreen can be mounted onto the audio-in port and especially the Multi-Interface hot shoe.
    The Mi hot shoe is a game changer for sure. No more do I need to plug a cable from Transmitter to audio port on the camera especially with the FX3 that has terrible buzzing sound with wireless mics. Rode doesn't have this feature and they really need to implement it because it makes a huge differences especially when you don't have to charge your Transmintter. The sound quality is a bit better on the Go-ii compare to Mic 2.
    My only complaint about the Mic 2 is that they are small so battery life is shorter. I do hope DJi will make a PRO version of their future Wireless Mics where we can setup 4 receivers. Also make them a bit bigger for longer battery life.
    Otherwise, go with the Mic 2 over Go-ii Pro because Rode needs to innovate and play catchup.

  • @EricKlein
    @EricKlein 10 місяців тому +2

    the quality difference between phone and receiver/action4 is that it is using pure Bluetooth to connect to the phone, with the action4/pocket3/DJI receiver it's actually transmitting the audio on a 2.4ghz signal not Bluetooth. Which is also why there was interference in congested areas, the 2.4ghz spectrum is busy.

    After watching 10 different reviews from 10 different content, creators, and hearing 10 different audio quality comparison…. If I am being honest and unbiased, the road wireless pro, hands-down, has a better audio quality 🤷🏻‍♂️
    It has longer battery life, more internal storage, you can transfer your audio with a USB-C cable connected to the case (DJI mics u have to plug them in individually even tho the case has usb-c), the Lav mics screw in so it can accidentally pull off on the Rode Pros….. but at the end of the day, I circle back to the main thing, the audio quality.. and my honest and unbiased opinion is that the road pro wins hands-down.

    Every review I hear makes it clear to me that the Rode sounds better but the DJI has the screen facing you on a camera but the Rode cannot accidentally format your audio in the field. Therefore we went with the Rode. We have Sankens locked into the Rode and it’s a sweet setup. We had three different camera ops accidentally delete the DJI one files in the field so I can’t risk that.

    • @EmeraldAudiovisual

    PS these mics are sweet, but I think I'd skip the Noise Cancellation as it hollows out your voice almost a little too much? But the DJI to DJI connection is so clutch, so that's a W. Here at work the RODE PROs have been super clutch when the Tentacle Syncs are in use on other cameras!

    I am writting my consolusion after a very tough comparsion of the 2 mics regarding sound quality!
    DJI MIC 2 Firmware version: v04.02.01.13
    Røde Mic 2 Firmware version: 1.2.8
    1) Using Røde Lav II mic on both units (DJI Mic 2 , Røde Wireless Pro) :
    -- Noise Cancellation off , No Low cut filter :
    Simple! They both almost identical. You will never beleive it. You can't prefer one other the second. They might sound different if you compare them using 2 different LAVs which is not fair.
    -- Noise Cancellation On (DJI MIC2) :
    Røde Wins 100%.
    2) NO LAV on both , RAW audio, No DeadCat wind shield. Both clipped equally on the top of my shirt:
    Røde : Better sound quality! Way better than the DJI Mic 2. Of course it depends on your voice and how much is the difference for your voice, but in General from audio samples from others as well, I found the Røde sound quality is more pure and native and fuller
    So, Finally: in case you will be using both with LAV, I think you are good to go with the one you prefer more.
    - if you care about the nice design and the very handy touch screen and compact case, DJI Mic 2 is the winner.
    - If you care about the noise reduction, then DJI is the clear winner.
    - If you are going to be hybrid between LAV and without, then the clear winner is the Røde.
    - If you are going to use it for street interviews, Røde is the winner again.
    If you have any questions, Let me know! :)

    In order to make the Mic 2 fully compatible with the Pocket 3, you need this system so that you can connect the receiver to the Pocket 3 USB-C port instead of using the direct connection. That connection collapses the internal mics on the optional wave file to mono, so you can't record stereo ambience to mix with your voice from the Mic 2. But it's an expensive fix for a problem which should never have been there in the first place.

      If you use the DJI receiver via lighting (or USB-C if you have a 15 pro) then you should be able to use the native camera app. I think you only have to swap to a 3rds party app if you use only Bluetooth between the iPhone and Transmitter (which you shouldn’t do anyways cause it sounds bad that way lol)
