I know this video is old but this was very helpful since I hadn’t used my wireless mic yet. I have a video I have to shoot and I was freaking out that I didn’t know if I could get good audio apparently I got the bundle with this mic.
Ooohh that’s a great question!! In my opinion go with the creator combo, because the wireless mic is designed specifically for the Pocket 2, plus you get so much more value in the Creator Combo with, for example the extra wide lens, do it all handle etc 👍
I want to record a video walk and want good audio of the street ambience. What should be my mike setup? I won't be vlogging or speaking during the walk.
I would have a static set up (on a wall or a tripod or some stable surface), and make sure you have the dead cat (wind muff) on, start recording, and wait.
If I wanted to use another wireless mic should I get another one, would that work? Two mics at the same time, or would you recommend something like the hollyand lark 150?
I have seen comments to suggest that other wireless mics don’t work that well. Sorry I don’t have any experience with the Hollyland lark so would be hesitant to recommend that until I know more.
I have found that many (most) conventionally wired (TRS) lapel mics do not work with the Pocket 2 when plugged directly into the Do-it-all handle (ie they are not recognised). I have one that is recognised (the Sanken Cos 11x wired for Sennheiser) but the audio only records on the left hand channel and the levels are very low, even when the Pocket2 is set to +20db in Pro Mode. To get audio on both channels with any TRS mic I have to link the tip and ring in an adapter cable. (The Pocket2 Mono/Stereo setting only seems to relate to the Pocket2 built-in mics). Which mic(s) do you have that the Pocket2 handle recognises ? I can get all my normal TRS mics to be recognised by the Pocket2 if I connect them via an adapter cable which links the tip and ring - and with the bonus that this records on both channels. Do you get audio on both channels when you plug a normal TRS mic directly into the handle and which (models) of your mics are recognised by the handle ? Re The Transmitter - All TRS mics are recognised by the DJI transmitter but the levels are low. One is OK which has a higher sensitivity ie10db higher (output) than most.) I would appreciate your experience with the handle and audio levels.
To be honest no I haven’t had much luck with other microphones but I might try using an additional adapter as you have outlined here - thanks for the tip! 👍
Have you tried a wired lav mic hooked up to transmitter? If so any work or does it have to be a TRS like mentioned in another comment? Also, agreed here, I have tried a few shotgun mics hooked to it and very low, has anyone had any luck with anything specific on that and a lav mic from the pack to your shirt? That wireless setup is very nice but can be bulky and in the way in some situation. Thanks
@@GetBusyLiving The Rode VideoMic Pro+ works well when connected to the Do-it-all Handle (try the +20db setting on the mic and +10db in the Pocket2 and set the mic to output the second 'safety' track. It is then recognised by the Pocket 2 and gives excellent sound. It also works well with plugged into DJI Wireless transmitter (I use normal Rode output level for that set up). All my lapel mics are TRS - these work with the DJI wireless transmitter but you need a lav mic with a strong output (eg sensitivity of about -28db to give a good signal . Beware, some lapel mics are not well shielded and pick up screeching interference when plugged in to the transmitter. My Primo mic capsule rated -28db produces a higher level from the transmitter than its built-in mic. I am doing a video on this and how to avoid the screeching and interference - and how to get lapel mics to be recognised when plugged directly in to the do-it-all handle- nearly finished ! It will also include some tips and examples. DJI have not made things easy.
Please note that the adapter cable referred to in my DJI Pocket2 External Microphone videos MUST be removed before paying back video on the Pocket2 OR before switching on the DJI radio mic - otherwise the headphone output amps will be shorted and may be damaged because they output from the same jack socket.
Hi Mike, great review👍 Do you kown if one can connect DJI's Pocket 2 wireless mic directly to a mobile phone, I mean without the usage of the do-it-all handle? That would be a cool add-on function. Looking forward to your kind reply. Greetings from Germany, Bernd 👋🙂
Hello, I purchased the handle and the original external mic, but I find the audio terrible. Even lower than on the osmo pocket 2. Is that possible? Ive been trawling the internet for hours and I havent found anyone with the same issue. In your experience, is the sound with the mic significantly better? Thank you
Hi there, I don't have this gear any more I have moved onto the more recent models, however yes I found the audio pretty good. Sorry to hear you're experiencing problems!
Great video! Many thanks. I bought this but the audio always sounds muffled (clipped to my shirt, audio set at 6db, with the wind shield on), I always have to boost the audio level when editing and therefore I don't think the quality is as good. Do you have any tips on setting it up in a way to increase the performance? Any advice would be much appreciated. I've searched around, but everything seems to talk about the DJI wireless mic, not the Pocket 2 wireless mic. All the best, Jono
Yeah mate I think the best solution now that the DJI Mic was released (after the wireless transmitter for the Pocket) would be to get the DJI Mic - it just seems to perform better and gives you so many other options. You can now buy a standalone DJI Mic 2 for 99 I believe, without having to buy the full kit.
Hello. I tried to connect a lavalier microphone to the wireless mic of pocket 2 but the the sound is no longer audible. Is there something that I need to do when connecting a lavalier or it would be much better to use the pocket 2 wireless mic as it is?
No, the best advice I can give is to always have the microphone as close to the sound source as possible. Even high end microphones will struggle to pick up good quality sound if you are far away.
I've been using this microphone for a month now. The audio level is very low and there is a lot of static noises like "clicking" sound or "damaged audio" sound almost every 20-30 seconds. Any ideas why this happens?
A whole video on the wireless microphone but did not talk about, or show, the back of the microphone. Is there a magnet or is it flat? A whole video on the wireless microphone but did not talk about it's battery, if it has one. If so, is it charged with usb-c and will it last as long as the pocket 2 battery.
Can you record on this pointing the camera away from you while still viewing the screen? (Record someone else? Or is it just front facing for vlogging?)
Still can’t find any review that talks about distance before loss of connection?, is it line of sight only (can you turn your back on the camera)?, is there any control over volume/gain?
The range I have heard is up to 100ft but I think this would be with clear line of sight and minimal or no interference. No I don't believe at this stage there is any gain control however that may come with a firmware update.
I have recorded myself playing classical guitar inside my house with this mic on the seat, as close to the guitar as possible to get good audio, but it was a little disapointing. What do you recommend for improving that sound with it? And also, is it possible to have both this one and a connected wired one working at the same time for the videos? Thanx!
It’s hard to comment without knowing your exact setup. Maybe there were too many hard surfaces that reflected the sound, perhaps the mic was too close and the guitar too loud and therefore was clipping. Very hard to know. No you can’t have a wired abs wireless into this device at the same time. You could record on a second device, an external device like the Zoom H1n, and then sync in post?
With the Pocket 2 wireless microphone? You would probably need two setups, so you have two microphones both connected to the pocket. Or by just using one microphone stand closer and put the microphone above you in a boom or on a makeshift handle and use like a news reporter.
I haven’t tried that myself so I’m not sure to be perfectly honest. Also seems like a lot of expense. Are the two people relatively close together? You may be able to position the microphone to capture both people’s audio?
I think the mic is terrible. Far too low even when you crank it up to somewhere near +20db. Was actually hoping this video would be testing the mic to determine the title, "worth it?" so I could see if other users are having the same issue as me. If the mic is right in front of my mouth it sounds decent, move it to the collar a few inches away and it becomes almost inaudible. I've just bought a Rode lavalier go which is arriving tomorrow to test into the wireless receiver, it may be wired but it will still be more discreet and if the recording works properly and sounds better then its a win.
@@karisamichelle5166 To be honest I've had pretty good results from $20 lavs through to more expensive ones like the Rode lavalier. I'd try something in the $20-$50 range and you should be fine. You can get lavs that cost hundreds of dollars but unless you are aiming for professional/.commercial level quality, I think the mid range products will be more than good enough like this one amzn.to/3cpmjuY
Is this a actual mic that connects straight to the pocket 2? Or do I need anything else? As I can’t connect this, I don’t see the mic option on the screen. Sorry newbie here
I believe the DJI documentation says you can, but I have seen comments from people saying that doesn't work. Could have been a firmware update - perhaps reach out to DJI to be sure.
@@GetBusyLiving Thank you for the reply. I am looking for a wireless solution that will plug directly into the USB-C port on the Osmo 1 so I can use the wireless base with a wireless mic at the same time.
@@frankmiranda110 You're welcome mate. You can get a wireless module for the Pocket but I think it is only to be able to control the camera remotely as opposed to using a wireless microphone. Given the extra gear you may have to buy to jury-rig something, if the Pocket is still your preferred device of choice to record the content you want, would you consider selling the Pocket and paying the balance to upgrade to the Pocket 2, then you have the purpose built wireless mic solution, plus a new and improved device to use?
@@GetBusyLiving That is certainly a good option and one I've considered. I really like my Osmo 1 and have most of the OEM DJI accessories for it so I've invested a good amount into this kit. If I can find a direct connect USB-C wireless mic that will be the last piece in my puzzle without having to re-spend hundreds of dollars on a new Osmo 2 kit. My question is does the wireless base on the Osmo 1 one fully support USB-C mics as I doesn't support USB data connections to PCs. It seems to only do power passthrough the wireless base USB-C. In order to do that one has to disconnect the base and connect directly to the USB-C port on the bottom of the camera then it will mount as a drive, I assume the same restriction will apply to peripherals plugged directly into the wireless base USB-C port.
Thanks for posting this but I just spent all morning trying to get the "mic" input on the do-it-all handle to work with an external mic. After a long while of trying everything with no luck I communicated wit DJI via the chat who denied it was a mic input saying it was a headphone out only. Really confused. Have you got this to work with a wired external mic or is this a mistake?
Hi mate - I have never used a wired mic, I have only ever used the built in mic or the wireless, However, it even says in DJI's own video that you can connect a wired mic - ruclips.net/video/IuqHQkpYPe0/видео.html
@@GetBusyLiving Thanks for replying you are indeed correct! The official video says as much. I have a couple of wireless Nikon mics which work on other things but not that. I will take this up with DJI again. If I get any sense out of them I will report back here for the benefit of all. Cheers. S
No, the wireless mic is NOT worth it. In fact, I’m replacing it with the Etudige ETM-100 mini mic from Amazon. It plugs straight into the jack of the Pocket 2’s all-in-1 handle bar; no recharging, no adapters needed.
@@GetBusyLiving Sorry, that's ETM-001. :) And the new set-up is a success! My mini mic will now forever reside in my Pocket 2's handle bar. 😊 See for yourself; I used it in this video: ruclips.net/video/m0woPiAzHRE/видео.html Mini mic held up, even through blasting music outdoors. 😉
No I don't think so. In DJI's launch video they did talk about attaching other external mics to unit but I don't think this works as well as the DJI mic.
Dont bother getting this in 2024. this mic can literally only be connected to the pocket 2 . its a waste of hardware if you cant connect it to anyt other device

Is there a wat to turn up the intake of volume? Like, how much sound the mic can take in, so that you could stand even further away from it and talk?
No, the best advice I can give is to always have the microphone as close to the sound source as possible. Even high end microphones will struggle to pick up good quality sound if you are far away.
When you connect the wireless mic, does the built in mic still work? Or does the wireless mic disable the built in mic?
It takes the feed from the wireless mic only

Hmm there is either something physically wrong with the mic - ie it is faulty, or it’s a firmware. Maybe check the firmware is up to date ?
I have the same issues with the wireless mic. Unfortunately this strange noise makes the wireless transmitter/mic unusable.

No, the wireless mic is NOT worth it. In fact, I’m replacing it with the Etudige ETM-100 mini mic from Amazon. It plugs straight into the jack of the Pocket 2’s all-in-1 handle bar; no recharging, no adapters needed.
Oh that's a great steer - thanks for that!
@@GetBusyLiving Sorry, that's ETM-001. :) And the new set-up is a success! My mini mic will now forever reside in my Pocket 2's handle bar. 😊
See for yourself; I used it in this video: ruclips.net/video/m0woPiAzHRE/видео.html
Mini mic held up, even through blasting music outdoors. 😉
@@RoseyTours Oh nice work - that works really well! 👏👍
Can you attach a another mic to the wireless unit so that I don’t need to attach the microphone unit onto my shirt 😂
No I don't think so. In DJI's launch video they did talk about attaching other external mics to unit but I don't think this works as well as the DJI mic.
In my opinion the wireless mic is too big, takes away the attention from the subject
Yes, probably best paired with a lav mic
Dont bother getting this in 2024. this mic can literally only be connected to the pocket 2 . its a waste of hardware if you cant connect it to anyt other device
Can you connect more than one wireless mic?
No, not in my experience
