Question: Are the magnets of the Lark M2 and Max interchangeable and fit in the case? I have the M2 and using the no-logo magnet would look nice. Thanks for the great video!
I have a Rode wireless I don’t like. I have a picomic that’s is absolutely great but the leave receiver although feature rich is large for a camera top mount. I bought the Lark M2 a few days ago and wow!! I love it. So tiny and compact.
Your audio comparison wasn't very useful. You kept switching to and from EMC before a comparison of each could be made. Which one sounds better on and which one sounds better off?
Thanks for the comment. Yeah, it might have been a little too quick. I need to see if we can add just audio samples to our article on LensVid if Art still has them.
Hi, great video. Thanks for this comparison. I wanted to check if the Lark M2 Mic/Transmitter works with the Lark Max Receiver? I would be happy to work with either M2 or Max mic on Max receiver depending on the set-up needed.
I want to open a live broadcast from my phone while fishing. The wind can be my biggest enemy. Which one do you think I should choose? Maybe later I can buy an action camera and broadcast live from there.
If the size of the transmitter doesn't bother you go with the Lark Max - it is just a better solution all around. Please make sure in advance that you will be able to connect it to your action camera (you will need the camera to support a 3.5mm jack or get a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter that actually works with your action camera - trust me its not always as straight forward as this sounds so do your research).
I was hoping the M2 combo simultaneous rx for both the TX's. ( I am waiting for a reply from Hollyland). The Max sounds better, better build quality (although both are solid), and since you can record, you can get separate audio if only in post-production. Still unsure what I will buy.
The only advantage of the M2 is size and weight - if these are a must-go with the M2 but remember its shortcomings (there are quite a few) otherwise the MAX is the better option - it is heavy so using it on its own with a T-shirt might not be a good idea.
Hey Art, I loved your review. Although I still have doubts about whether to buy the MAX or the M2. I am a filmmaker and I do many interviews and REELs with two iPhones, the 14 Pro Max and 15 Pro Max. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance. Greetings!
Hi, Art is not around but as we noted in some comments for other users - the M2 only advantage is its size and weight otherwise the MAX is the much better option so decide based on this.
@@IddoGenuthWHAT DOES TAHT MEAN THO?! YOU GUYS HAVE TO DO BETTER IF YU CHOOSE TO ENGAGE OR ASSIGN YOU STAFF TO ENGAGE IN THE COMMENT SECTIONS. 'SO MUCH BETTER' IS A NOTHING BURGER.
in terms of audio quality, both are very good. Different, but good. If they make a 32 bit version of the Max, that would definitely be the winner. For now, I'd go for the less expensive version.
Отсутствие записи на внутренний диск может быть проблемой. В то же время компактность трансмиттера М2 заставляет смотреть в его сторону. Заказал Max в итоге
more distinct editing is needed for these types of video in the future, I was lost so much when you cross crossed and solo then duel operated these products. that said I'm going with the M2 for now. I wold also TOTALLY, at then end offer you opinion and offer maybe other options you feel were better for the price, or like you you said 'these can't compete with the real audio kings'... I have ZERO idea what that means and never will. I'd love if you included more knowledge for newcomers and vets alike.
Thank you for the feedback. Specifically for this product. As I commented to other users, the only advantages of the M2 are the size and price. Aside from that, I would go with the MAX. This was not a comparison to other products on the market - there are by now countless good options from different brands and this was not meant to be a roundup.
Great Review, you've convinced me to use the lark m2 for my family vlogs. Thanks!
Thanks for the nice review. Great that you've got both mics in front of the camera for people to make the right choice.

Interesting question - not 100% - I can say that I lost one magnet and replaced it with a random round magnet and it works fine.
Hello nice just got mine lark m2. Where you made this video specially that parking lot
The audio distance test was indeed done in a parking lot not too far from our studio.
I have a Rode wireless I don’t like. I have a picomic that’s is absolutely great but the leave receiver although feature rich is large for a camera top mount. I bought the Lark M2 a few days ago and wow!! I love it. So tiny and compact.

I don't think so. Art did you test this? (the connection I think is automatic so I don't think there is even a way to do that).
I want to open a live broadcast from my phone while fishing. The wind can be my biggest enemy. Which one do you think I should choose? Maybe later I can buy an action camera and broadcast live from there.

@@IddoGenuth Yep, I hadn't thought about that before. Thanks for your suggestions.

Can you run 2 mics into Android phone at the same time on seperate channels on Lark M2 or Max?
Awesome 🔥

sorry no caps****. I'm falling asleep and can't re-edit my comment.
@@Ionic457 What is your question?
Una pregunta, para ti cuál sería tu mejor opción en términos de calidad de audio?
in terms of audio quality, both are very good. Different, but good. If they make a 32 bit version of the Max, that would definitely be the winner. For now, I'd go for the less expensive version.
Спасибо большое.
Выбираю m2

נחמד
For documentary and interviews which one would you recommend?
The lark max sounds a bit better but is larger so choose accordingly.
