Clear instructions. Logical order. Useful method for practical use. Thank you! One sub-topic you might address are radio DJs who interview people. The DJI mic 2 is ideal, with a little shift in needs. I am a public radio DJ and do not use a camera, so want to just carry the two mics. Do the settings from the Receive hold without the receiver no where near? It would make a popular program for DJs. Many thanks, Railroad Joe KVRF, Palmer Alaska
@@MikeBSalazar Yeah i do know about the red button but i just had hope it also had a simultaneously setting to when press record on camera it would record in both. Thanks for the answer 👍
@@NamasteJiOficial In the transmitter settings you can turn on auto rec when you remove the transmitter from the case. So you will have one long internal recording without having to press the record button on the transmitter.
Just switching, right now, from Rode WGII to DJI Mic 2 because I got a DJI OPM3 and want to use one mic system with both that and my Nikon mirrorless. So, the camera setting on the DJI receiver is just a quick way to set gain for specific cameras? Is there a table or chart that shows what settings they actually represent in case I wanted to manually tweak gain slightly different from their recommendation? When I use the DJI Mic 2 directly with the OPM3 it is using Bluetooth connection. Is there a a quality difference than using the wireless receiver? More convenient, but is there a quality issue as I've never thought BLE was a professional connection for audio gear? Lastly, my understanding is that because of patent issues (no one wants to pay royalties) none of the 32-bit wireless mics transmit 32-bit to the camera, they only record internally at 32-bit. For all non-live work, do you recommend still using the camera's audio (mirrorless with DJI receiver or OPM3 with BLE) as scratch and sync'ing the recorded audio to use as the main audio or is it "not needed" unless there is audio drop outs?
I haven't seen a chart or table to show the recommended settings. When it comes to the wireless receiver, I don't perceive a difference in audio quality. However if you want to manipulate the 32 bit audio, you'll want to take the audio straight from the microphone itself. So yes, you'll want to hit record or make sure that those microphones automatically record if you need it to. For me I prefer to record both scratch and recorded audio just in case, then sync if needed.
Thank you for the video. Very helpful. So if I am only filming with one mic I don’t have to plug in the transmitter to the iPhone? Did I understand that correctly? I just connect it via Bluetooth? Also, I see a lot of people mention the black magic camera app. What happens if I want to film inside of CapCut or another teleprompter/editing app?
Hey Mike! Love the video, by chance, do you know if there's a way to get two different tracks for audio when recording with a Sony A7iii? When it's set to stereo and I upload it into my editing program, the audio is all put together in one.
The camera audio will come altogether. You’re better off duplicating your camera audio on your timeline and select the L track, and then select the R track on the other.
Great Vid. May I know how to turn of permanently the noise cancelling? Whenever connecting TX with my action 4, the noise cancelling will turn on under the yellow color and I need to turn if off by pressing the power button.
I have a question about DJI Mic 2 I know the transmitters use Bluetooth using to the action and pocket Osmo but what is the protocol it uses to go from the receiver to the transmitter?
Can I use both 32 bit float recording and also use the -6db function at the same time? Just curious. If so, is that something you would do. Thanks for the video Mike. Very useful.
your audio sounds better with your a-roll stuff vs. when you were showing the mic in use with your camera settings.. what mic were u using to record all this?
I still dont understand why you need stereo to separate audio track, you have just left and right audio ... with mono, you have 2 separate audio files and you can also edit it in post processing ... what am I missing ? if I use both transmitters, why would be stereo setting better ?
Stereo is better to have the left and right split, but if you record mono, then both tracks are mixed together into one track and you can’t edit either in post unless you record directly on each microphone as well and take the audio from the individual mics.
@@MikeBSalazar now I got it, I started to experiment, and yes you are partly right DIFFERENCE: if you use Reciever : 1 mic : mono 2mics : stereo (edit in post editing) Without receiver (record by pressing record button on side of mic) 1 or 2 - 1 or 2 mono audio files
There is on amazon a cable that split the 3.5 TRS stereo onto Two 3.5 mono. It allows to connect a stereo microphone on a boompole for example to the two transmitters that send both mono channel and finally the receiver set as stereo can store both channel in the camera. It is the only way i found right now in the market to send a stereo signal wirelessly to a camera. If someone knows another let me know.
Wow, impressive tutorial, thanks. I noticed like me, the touchscreen can be difficult at times with finger size! I’ve now learned to use the scroll wheel as a scroll dial combined command push button, saves a lot of missed finger touchscreen scrolling. Just thought i’d give something back to the community. Thanks again. 👍
I just bought the DJI Mic 2 and when I swipe down, I see Mono, Receiver Gain, Volume, Transmitter Settings, and Settings. Maybe you are showing an older version. I looked everywhere but don't see this option.
Great video. Very helpful. To get noise cancellation... do i need the receiver connected to the phone or Pocket 3? Ive read it does not work via Bluetooth.
Do you have your camera cage ? Has anybody figure out a cage specifically the top handle you can still use both - the handle without covering the hot shoe mount ?
Great video dude. Do you have any idea if the Sony ZV-E10 is the same sound profile as the Sony ZV-1? The ZV-E10 is listed on the camera settings but ZV-1 isn't... even though it's the most popular vlogging camera by far
Hi~want to ask a question , I bought The Pocket3 combo and mic 2 (1 RX 1 TX), I tried to connect The RX and The TX from pocket 3 combo but didn't wok ?how about yours ? thank you ~
It should work. Except you won't need the RX to connect to the Pocket 3. In order for the TX to be paired to the Pocket 3, you need to set it to bluetooth mode by pressing and holding record. Then on the Pocket 3 you should be able to pair it from the menu.
@@MikeBSalazar thank you ~ I found the way to pairing the Rx and 2 tx, it is when rx doning paring ,you should hold the link button down for 3 seconds ~ the tx (pocket 3 combo set) didn’t show anything on the Rx receiver before
Awesome video! I find myself having to bump my transmitter db gain to +12 , my fx30 volume to 1 and receiver to the recommended +9. What is the gain level of your transmitter?
I'm currently recording in 32 bit float and am boosting it in post, but I'm still playing with the levels to get it just right straight out of camera. But I do agree with boosting the gain via the receiver/transmitter.
Awesome! A tutorial about how to make your DJI MIC2 sound better with EQ or editing in post would be amazing for us beginners out there. And I cannot really find videos about enhancing the audio quality of this mic on youtube that much. People are so focused on talking about the mic, but don't take time to actually point out the fact that people do tinkle with the audio in post@@MikeBSalazar
Just a couple from me: if I’m the only person ever talking should I use stereo or mono? And is 32bit float absolutely needed? Or does it just give you extra headroom flexibility in post if required?
@@MikeBSalazar The receiver does have bluetooth connectivity? I was thinking pairing both mics to the receiver and the receiver paired via bluetooth to the gopro...
None of these videos about the dji2 mic seem to mention how bad the audio quality is if you just use the transmitter straight to a phone I bought one for livestreaming n have to return it because the audio quality is so bad with just Bluetooth
you know what i discovered? that the audio recorded with the dji mic 2 and Osmo pocket 3 the file is not 32bit, if u want the 32 bit float file u need to extract it manually from the mic itself .
Got a stupid question for you. Really like your video by the way. But I've been looking for a Black T-shirt like the one you were wearing in your video. Any way you can tell me the brand name or you bought it?...Believe me, I'm serious. Yours is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks....

I had the mics for a bit now. Never got to do the best settings and this video just did thank you
You’re very welcome!
HELLO there
is there a function to record simulaneosly inside the camera and inside the transmitter? cant find it .
Thanks in advance
Namaste
Yeah. Just hit the red circle on the transmitter and as long as you’re recording on your camera you’re good.

I'm not sure how to do it on the action 4 I would think it would be in camera that you would turn it off.
I have a question about DJI Mic 2 I know the transmitters use Bluetooth using to the action and pocket Osmo but what is the protocol it uses to go from the receiver to the transmitter?
What would be the best setting for recording travel videos? Mainly to capture the surrounding noise.
I would record in 32 Bit Float to be able to have the flexible to edit audio levels from the surroundings no matter how loud or soft they may be.
Hi Mike! Great video. I had a question regarding the vertical video you exhibited at 04:55. What tool do you use for subtitling like that?
Thank you. Can I use this as a normal mic connected to a speaker?
Not directly. You’d have to have the receiver connected to a speaker.
Is the mic can use with canon camera too?
Absolutely
Hi for 32 bit float does the internal recording red light need to be enabled?
You can turn off the red light and still record.
I have the sony a7iv but that isn’t an option as profile. Should i set it to sony a7Riv?
I haven't tried that, but it's worth a try.
Can I use both 32 bit float recording and also use the -6db function at the same time? Just curious. If so, is that something you would do. Thanks for the video Mike. Very useful.
your audio sounds better with your a-roll stuff vs. when you were showing the mic in use with your camera settings.. what mic were u using to record all this?
I was using two different mics.
@@MikeBSalazarright that’s what i said lol but the second mic was better then the dji one which one was that

Yeah, not a fan of the touchscreen myself either for the same reason lol. Thankfully the buttons and scrolling is quite responsive
Will it be a good idea to use Noise cancellation mode while recording a Lecture?
If you don’t plan of editing your audio in the future yeah it’s worth a try.
@ we will be inside a building close to a window, I’m afraid of any super loud motorcycles or cars driving by.
If you set the RX with the camera settings. Will it apply the camera settings when using the RX with both mics on your mobile device?
Yes. So if you don't want this, just turn the setting off in the RX.
I just bought the DJI Mic 2 and when I swipe down, I see Mono, Receiver Gain, Volume, Transmitter Settings, and Settings. Maybe you are showing an older version. I looked everywhere but don't see this option.
Which option are you referring to because I am using the DJI Mic 2.
Great video. Very helpful. To get noise cancellation... do i need the receiver connected to the phone or Pocket 3? Ive read it does not work via Bluetooth.
Yeah unfortunately it doesn't work via Bluetooth with phone. Only works with pocket 3 or with the DJI Mic 2 receiver.
Probably one of the best options to use today. :)
Still loving it.
Great vid. I got the stand-alone unit. How do I do the settings without the controller?
You need a receiver. Otherwise you can only adjust what you can in your camera that its paired with.
Do you have your camera cage ? Has anybody figure out a cage specifically the top handle you can still use both - the handle without covering the hot shoe mount ?
Most top handles will block the hot shoe mount. If anything some top handles will have the cold shoe mount.

Anyone know what settings etc are best for the insta360 x3 for using for car footage while using the mic 2 and transmitter?

Yes, but for better results, you want one mic that is close to your mouth and one for your guitar.
@@MikeBSalazar of course. Thanks for the response. Bought em lastnight. They'll be here today
What to do if you only have Dji Mic 2 transmitter?
You’ll need to use with the camera or record internally.
