dude, that's exactly what i wanted. extremenly thankful!
You got it!! Glad it was helpful!
Nice video you pushed it to limits 🔥
Thank for the extensive review, really helpful
Glad it helped! Such a great microphone. They packed a lot of value into this little system. 👍🏼
Great review, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Nice Review!
Thank you! More on the way 👍🏼
Hi Cody Lander,
Nice review! I found this mic very useful. With which camera you have paired this mic. Thank you.
Hello! In this video I used 3 cameras. Sony A7siii, iPhone 14pro, and Insta360 Ace Pro.
Nice review. When your skating, For me it's more realistic when you put the wind protection + noise reduction off.
Thank you! I 100% agree. I like to be able to hear the ambience. The noise reduction is too aggressive. What microphone are you using?
Is there any indicator if the noise cancellation is active? i do a lot of interview with lark m2 where noise cancellation is just not needed, coz I don't like how it sounds when it is on
specially when there is not much noise in the background
Yes the light on the transceiver changes from blue to green or green to blue. It’s been a few weeks since I was testing it. But the light does change when it’s active.
how do I connect this mic to ace pro. Do I have to do anything on bluetooth?
It’s not Bluetooth. You need the 3.5 microphone adapter for the Ace pro. You can find it in the accessories for Ace pro on their website.
bro can it work andriod phone
Yes, there is a usb-c mobile receiver. 👍🏼
Can i use three transmitters at a time what i mean i have multiple cameras. action 4, zv1 and mobile if i placed three cameras on different angles can i use those three transmitters at a time for three camerashots ? Please answer this
I don’t see why you couldn’t buy multiple of the same mic system and use them at the same time. I haven’t tested that scenario but on paper it should work just fine.
My iphone reciver lost sir how can i replace it??
I’m guessing you’ll have to buy a new one.
Could you please test the same setup with usb c adapter meant for smartphone?
Also with that can you charge the ace pro?
Would really appreciate if you could test that 😊
The usb-c adapter works the same as the lightning adapter. Yes the insta360 acepro mic adapter has a usb-c port also so you can charge it at the same time.
@@codylander no I mean can you use the USB c adapter direcrly on the ace pro (without the insta360 mic adapter) and then charge the ace pro while using the mic?
Something you can do with the USB c adapter if you use a smartphone.
@@mokisan It doesn’t work by plugging in the M2 usbc adapter into the acepro. You’ll have to use the acepro 3.5 adapter.
@@codylander thank you!
@@mokisan you’re welcome. I hope that if Insta360 makes an AcePro ii that they will update it so it can receive usbc mics directly without the 3.5 adapter. But even as it is now. It’s still an incredibly small and capable camera that is able to receive audio. Powerful combination! I love mine.
I have this mic and I put the windscreen and definitely didn't protect from wind. Audio kept clipping so bad .
How strong was the wind? Were you using the smartphone receiver or the camera receiver? Did you set your levels or just turn it on and go?
@codylander wind was about 7-10 mph I had it on the first level and the wind screen .
@codylander and using reciever connected to a canon camera
@@torresharbin You’ll have 2 ways to adjust your audio levels. 1st on the lark m2 receiver. Low middle and high. 2nd on your canon. If this level is set too high on your camera it doesn’t matter what wind protection you use. You can still clip the audio.
@codylander yea I set the audio on my canon pretty low where my voice was a bit too quiet with normal talking but wind kept clipping but I'll keep trying thanks for responding!
