V-Mic D4 DUO User Guide | Using Your New Vlog Mic
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 7. 08. 2024
- Andrew runs through all the features and ways to use your new V-Mic D4 DUO! We are so excited to finally release the DUO and change the way that you create digital content, vlog, and record audio. The DUO's dual capsule design lets you capture audio from in front of and behind your camera as you wish, which makes vlog audio and interview audio super easy.
The main feature is the toggle switch on top. That changes the mic from a normal on-camera shotgun mic to a dual capsule device that will record your voice from behind the camera in perfect clarity. Not only does that make the DUO the best vlogging mic, but it also makes it the perfect interview mic. You can even plug a lav into it when you need true proximity.
The D4 DUO doesn't need any batteries, it just runs off of your camera's power so you never have to worry about it dying on set. We even show you how to edit audio recorded with the D4 DUO in two different ways.

Any questions about your new mic?
Everything's good
Will you include a trrs to trs cable
@@joshscott363 No because mobile phones only work with 1 microphone capsule. We'd lose 50% of the functionality of this microphone with a cable like that. Plus we still have the D3 and D3 Pro which operate with TRRS inputs.
Does the dual mic works with iPhone 11? Or its only front or back mic only?
Hello, I preordered the d4 duo and was excited when it finally came in. I tried using it with my insta360 one r, but the sound just doesnât seem to be coming in. Troubleshooting: I tried hooking it up to my laptop and it works. I tried connecting my rode mic to the insta360 one r and it was working. Iâm not sure what I have to do. Help!
Great! It's an online manual! Wish a lot of other companies would do this for their products. Thank you!
We figured it needed to be done.
@@DeityMicrophones Well - the post part is far to fast! It's nicely done, but it totally misses a pedagogical, didactical concept - that requires that important steps are done slowly and have breaks in between. I know that you can do it - teaching something is another thing although.
@@christiankogler3381 I watched at 1.25x speed and it seemed fine to me. just watch at 0.75x speed if it is too fast or even replay the video if something isn't clear the first time around.
Another first from Deity and what a fantastic job. Great design and build with capsules that sound great as well.
I will ink this by my review as extra info and how to use it in post! Thanks Andrew!
Thanks for the audio editing piece! Super helpful đ€©
thanks for the great video. would you guys be willing to make a video showing the process in final cut pro, as you did with premiere pro? i'd really appreciate it!
this was an awesome video thank you so much! i just got the mic and its great!
Yes, you have got me. I ordered it!!!! ..... ok, it was three or four month ago! You make always an excellent job! ... And: I miss the IBC this year! Best wishes and stay innovative
Really cool mic with some really cool features. Don't think I would buy it right now since I don't vlog or do anything where I would need audio from the front and back but if someone asked me what mic to get for vloging, I would definitely recommend this mic to them. Also, that product video was pretty cool as well. Thanks for all the great work you guys are doing.
Very good concept with an input port. Good job.
Thanks. What would you use the input port for?
Just purchased this as my first ever mic!
damn man, your sound is crisp af! nice video!
Great job, thank you!
Thankyou so much !!!! Finally my audio works . And my idiot self had the cord in the wrong spot. Thanksssssssssss I truly appreciate this video. I watched over 10 videos about this and finally it got fixed . đ
matti sent me here, awesome little tool đđŸđœ
very nice video watching from philippines
Will the dual mono mode work on an iPhone 13 with the TRRS to lightning cable or adapter?
Will Deity make a version 2 of this microphone to be compatible with smartphones using the dual mono feature?
thank you!
Hi, i'm thinking of purchasing one, i like it because it does need batteries and i want to make it a boom mic or on a stand and connect to a separate audio recording device as well, what do i need to turn this into a boom mic, especially what cable(s)? Hope you can answer my query, thank you very much for your time.
Great new mic!! If say the mic was turned sideways in the hot shoe and the switch was flipped to record both front and back would it then be recording a L and R stereo image (obviously not X/Y or a true stereo mic pattern)?
Maybe... youd need to add more gain to the rear capsule in post
Yes, i tested and it is stereo, add gain 8 db on the right. Best way to do stereo is have 2 of this , using both front mic connect with input port. Align two front mic by 90 degree. Profect!
I use the Rode "RodeLink Filmmaker Kit" as a neck mic, or to capture sound from the DJ's console on a wedding ceremony. . Can I put the cable from my Rode receiver into the D4 DUO input jack and then get 2 channels in my Canon 6DII ? one field sound from the D4 front mic on the left channel and another sound from the Rode receiver on the right channel?
I wish the capsule specs were the same on both sides. I currently use 2 mini shotgun mics to achieve this result, I control the audio gain with recorder (I don't record with camera).
Any idea why the Deity D4 Duo is not recognized by a Mac Mini (2012)? I've tried with the original trs cable and with a trs to trrs cable as well.
Are the capsules dynamic or condenser? If condenser, where is it getting its power from?
Can I connect it to my iPad? If so, how? I have the adapter but no sound comes out. Thanks!đ
Question...whats was the name and model of the Lavalier that you used in this video? Thank you.
How does one fix the L/R audio issue in say, iMovie. Just recorded a vlog and imported and realized everything is heavy on the leftside. is Imovie capable of fixing this or is there another program i can import the audio to fix this issue?
Question....what is the name and model of the mic stand/boom are you using in this video?
Thanks for a great video. I am having a small issue while editing in FCPX. The front and back audio is coming from the left and right channel respectively. This sounds weird because the subjects were not placed to the left or right side of the camera, but rather in front and behind like in an interview. How can this be fixed? I saw your Adobe tutorial, but not sure how to go about in FCPX.
Would be great if someone answered this
@@THELIFEOFCB You need to duplicate the front and rear mics feeds so that you have two double mono and then split the two tracks.
So you will have two lefts and two rights one will be your front and the other will be your rear mic. hope that helps. I am not sure how FCPX works but hopefully you have something to work with.
@@BackyardRussia so in total will I have 3 for the front and 3 for the back or just two front two back? Also do I pan the tracks left and right?
I wish the switch allowed for two channel front or back. Iâve noticed that when in dual mode, the crowd noise from the front mic drowns out the rear mic. This can be an issue for users importing footing into iMovie to edit.
Will this mic work with the Tascam Dr-60Dmkii?
So the bigger part of the microphone is on the lens side the smaller microphone is on the back? Iâve seen people put it on backwards does it matter I know itâs only obvious But not really for some people.
So when you edit your video and itâs in stereo when you put it in your editor letâs say like Luma fusion will both voice tracks show up? I use a Canon 60 D and a Lumix G7
it's "stereo". and in your editor you split your tracks and select which track you want live just like you would if you were running multiple camears.
Does it work with action camera Sony AS300?
I just got a Rode VideoMicro thinking it would pick me up well enough while behind the mic...it doesn't. Every time I turn the camera away from me I have to unmount and move the microphone around to face me. I can't believe that nobody has thought of this solution in the past, obviously when you're vlogging you're switching between yourself and what you're doing quite often. I'll have to try this out.
Vlog dream mic maybe?
maybe :-)
Can it be used with insta360one x2?
I'm looking for a sound bag. I'm really buying into the Deity brand. I was impressed with the new boom and mic holder. I currently own a number of your mic products and wireless. Are there any plans to offer a Deity sound bag for sale? If it's on the way, I'm willing to wait. I really love the quality and user friendless of all your products. I'd be happy to do a review!
no plans for a sound bag
So my mic finally came in today, yay! The back mic is FANTASTIC...but I'm having some issues with the front. In particular, it has trouble with peaking. I film vlogs inside theme parks where it can be very noisy and I'll need to speak up, and it doesn't seem like it does very well with that as almost all my audio is peaked. It's kinda a shame coming from the RODE VideoMicro which handled that a lot better...hopefully I'm just doing something wrong or need to change a setting on my camera but I would love some suggestions. Working with a Sony RX100 VII.
What are your audio settings in your camera?
@@DeityMicrophones I've got the audio level set to 1, the lowest it can go
Yes, experience the same thing. Shot an interview, with both front and back camera on at a noisy event. The front mic seems to pick up the ambiance and subject (2 feet away) sound equally. At some moment, the subject voice kinda lost in the ambiance. The back mic works well, but Im just like 12 inch away. My Rode too seems to be better in isolating the loud ambiance sound and my subject. It works well in a less noisy environment though!
I need one of these in my life! What can I sell?
Can I use the output slot to headphone monitor the sound Iâm recording?
No. You'd need a headphone preamplifier to run a pair of headphones.
what editing app are u using?
Can this microphone be plugged into a laptop?
HEEELLPPP. I have a Sony zv1f and Iâm getting hissing sound in my audio. I adjusted the sound and no matter where I put it. I still get the hissing sound.
Anyone with a cable/adapter solution for use together with smartphones ? I know that "TRS to TRRS" adapters exists, but I am told that these won't work, since smartphones only use a mono microphone signal. What is necessary is some kind of "audio interface" built into an adapter, that samples the analog stereo signal and transfers it to the smartphone through USB/lightning. Kan anyone think of such a solution ?
Hello, I have Deity 4 mini duo. When I plug in my Lavalier Mic to the input slot, it only records audio on 1 channel, not both on my sony a7iii. Is there a way to fix it?
Thats correct. This way each mic is recorded individually so you have full control of your mix in post.
@@DeityMicrophones I am sorry I donât understand, when I play the video on my Mac, the sound only comes out of one speakerâŠ
Do you need RODE sc4 or sc7 cable to use with iphone ?
Deity Microphones don't have 35c but it works with rode sc7 cable â€ïž thank you đ
You say we take our 3.5 mm Jack as if there is another type. Aren't both jacks exactly the same, I mean can't we plug in either end into the camera? The way you say it, it sounds like we have to make sure we plug in the correct end into the camera.
No, they aren't the same. One is an output and what is a loop thru input.
My input doesn't record anything from many cables, what should I do?
have you toggled the switch to the rear position?
Whatâs the maximum reasonable distance you can be from the front mic? Just wondering if this mic would be suitable for vlogging in a gym setting with the person in front approx 2m (6-7 feet) away from the front mic bantering with the person behind the camera whoâs speaking into the rear mic. Thanks
Thats fine but a gym is loud. You'd be better off with a pocket wireless on a Smallrig handheld adapter
@@DeityMicrophones Really appreciate the quick reply, thank you đđ»
Itâs a private gym, so itâs pretty quiet when we record.
Was just concerned about the distance I can be from the front mic and still be clearly audible? Is there like a recommended max distance from the front?
Background noise shouldnât be an issue for our setup đ
Thanks again đđ»
I am having issues connecting my iphone and its adapter to the duo Mic. The microphone doesn't work when i connect it to my iphone. Please help
I'm not from deity, but most likely, it's because the included TRS cable is meant for full-sized cameras. iPhones and other phones need a TRRS connection. A simple 2$-10$ TRS to TRRS adapter should fix your problem.
@@glssjg Thank you for the help. this is the aux that i bought that doesnt work with the iphone. Not sure if it's a TRRS, are you able to tell?
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083L8ZF1W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s04?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm going to buy a trrs connection now though to test your answer out. Thank you again
Also this is the adapter I bought Apple Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter
Hellow Deity what video editing software did you use.
Adobe Premiere
@@DeityMicrophones Thank you for response. This mic is compatible to Sony ZV1 Camera.?
@@mertsmayor yup.
Wonderful video, thanks to share it. I use Lumix GH6, do you know it and its ampli? In your opinion can I use Deity nic.? However, I never have to speak in front of the microphone (no vlogging), I only make documentaries but not in the city. I shoot working people in the open and remote countryside.Would you use a wind protection? Thanks.
You sound like you'd benefit better from the Deity V-Mic D3 Pro
@@DeityMicrophones Please, one last question to understand better: with a mic. so small I believe you have to be close enough to it to get a good presence and a robust sound. Don't you think that shooting distant or very distant people outdoors (countryside) with the mic. built-in camera do a similar job? Do you believe that the mini mic. is it necessary to get better quality? Thanks again.
im having trouble using the mic on my pc for my twitch videos is there a tutorial for that fix?
It's not really designed for use with the PC. What are you using to plug it in?
@@DeityMicrophones a 15ft cord .
@@taofsart8769 into what?
@@DeityMicrophones in the input slot, into an all in one windows pc;s headphone jack.
@@taofsart8769 are you using a TRRS to TRS adapter?
Just got mine and connected it to my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra with an adapter but no sound is being recorded. I used "USB Type C to 3.5mm Female Headphone Jack Adapter,(2-Pack) USB C to Aux Audio Dongle Cable Cord Compatible with Samsung Galaxy S23 S23+ S22 S21 S20 Ultra Note 20 10 S10 S9 Plus,Pixel 4 3 XL,iPad Pro" I bought on Amazon
I'm going to buy one more adapter from Amazon that specifically mentions microphones and see if that works. Here's the description for that one: "Saramonic SR-C2003 Female 3.5mm TRS Microphone Adapter Cable to USB Type-C Connector Dongle - Compatible with Samsung Galaxy, HTC, iPad Pro Smartphones and Tablets - USB C to 3.5mm Audio Adapter"
I have a interview to do on friday. And im a photographer and music video editor. Is this going to work on my old Sony A7 iii?
what software is this?
Adobe Premiere
But this theoretical method can be applied to any editing software
How do I connect this to my computer???? It isn't being recognized.
it's not a computer microphone
@@DeityMicrophones WHAT DO YOU HAVE IT PLUGGED INTO THEN?
@@aaronredford5661 the V-Mic D4 DUO is plugged into the camera
Damn I had mine plugged into the output đ€ŠđŸââïžđ„Č
5:00 wouldn't it be easier to just set the channel setting to Mono and then the tracks are automatically placed on individual tracks separated? You then wouldn't have doubled audio channels and would make for an easier mix or output to a pro audio mixing DAW.
It is how I edit shows.
Can you please write step by step How to do it in Adobe Premiere? Thanks in advance! đđŒ
@@Sitr0x select the clip in the bin. Right click and go to modify> audio settings (I think that is what it is called, next to Interpret Footage), default shortcut is Shift+G. From the first drop down menu select Mono. Click OK and you are done.

Great tut. But why do you pronounce the name as "DeeDee" and not "Day-itty" as in "one exalted or revered as supremely good or powerful"?
Here is a not-so-complicated method: 1)Separate audiotrack by two channels. 2)Switch both to mono mode. 3)... 4)Profit
