    The Rode has a rough, abrasive high end edge that needs eq-ing. The DJI sounded smoother on the highs.

    Interesting. How does dynamic work when there is long pauses in recording. Does it ramp up to catch the background and then ramp down when talking. I never had much luck with auto gain in the past. In the end this is a tough area. On the one hand automation is a great time saver, but editing is still needed and there are so many great tools for audio on post that it may make these features a little useless as skills improve. Good review.

    @HikeSoloOutdoors Pƙed rokem +3

    Since your main selling point is the dynamic audio on the Rode, it would have been cool if you did some simulated dynamic shifts like holding the mic up to you mouth while whispering then quickly yelling into it. I think that have shown the capabilities (or lack there of) better than the counting test, especially since on both count tests you switched to the Rode second, giving it plenty of time to regulate the audio before the switch. Also, does the dynamic mode affect battery life?

  • @LaachirDeeper
    @LaachirDeeper Pƙed rokem +6

    In general any device that has dynamic turned on It a huge power battery consuming. DJI I use are the best, you choose settings Done every.

    The reason why I am thinking of purchasing either is the lack of a back up when something happens and we are filming, BUT the gain ASSIST is a great feature to have as well LOL... hopefully that's something we can get through an OS update for the DJI

  • @kneepayne
    @kneepayne Pƙed rokem +5

    Wireless ME is certainly a good option for many. The backup feature of the DJI is why I will not be jumping systems. I am happy with the sound. The touch screen may not appeal to everyone, but for me I don't think I could go back. It reminds me of when I got the one of the first Canon (70D?) bodies that supported touch screen. Going back to my older models like the 6D was so frustrating. I think I would have similar issues with another mic system if I left DJI for a "cheaper" alternative.

      Hi, it has 1 transmitter, that you can attach a lav mic to, and 1 receiver. The receiver also has a mic in it although you can't attach a lavilier mic to it so if you want to do that the audio sounds don't match. I've just done a review of the RODE Me on my channel and tried it in loads of scenarios and discovered some of these quirks.

    First you did a boring comparison. Better you would have compared the new Rode Wireless ME to the older Rode Wireless Go II. And starting from here you could compare instead of two three wireless mic systems and add the DJI Mic. But an comparison of the Rode Wireless ME without the Rode Wireless Go II doesn't make any sence at all. Secondly the battery life of the DJI Mic you mentioned is the battery life of the entire setup including the carrying case. The recording/operation time of the DJI Mic without interrupting the recording to recharge the mics with the carrying case is significant shorter. Thus this comparison is also unfair. I dislike this review.
