DJI Unveils Mic 3 Wireless Microphone System
DJI has launched its very latest miniature wireless microphone, the Mic 3. This new disaster promises to add a step forward from its sisters, with improved audio recording quality, weighing in at 16 grams, not to mention new features like adaptive gain control and voice tone presets.
Core Audio Features and Upgrades
The Mic 3 introduces several core improvements with the aim of enhancing sound quality and flexibility:
- Adaptive Gain Control: A new feature with two modes. 'Automatic' prevents clipping from sudden volume spikes, while 'Dynamic' balances levels for stable audio.
- Voice Tone Presets: Three built-in presets are available "Normal," "Rich," and "Bright."
- Noise Cancellation: It works through dual stages to minimize background interference noise and is with an attached windscreen.
- Lossless Audios: The system supports 48 kHz / 24-bit decompressed audio transmissions.
- Internal Recording: Transmitter built-in dual-file recording at a 32-bit float depth, providing a safe backup track with a wide dynamic range.
Connectivity and System Integration
DJI Mic 3 has been prepared for all applications:
- Multi-Device Application: Up to four transmitters can connect, and the receivers can reach eight.
- DJI OsmoAudio: By just using the microphone, users can directly operate with the OsmoAudio system without needing receivers.
- Quadrophonic Mode: Depending on the model of specific Sony cameras and software, a specific quadrophonic mode can be used, outputting four independent audio to a single camera.
- Connection Ports: TRS 3.5 mm, USB Type-C, Bluetooth and a TRRS function are pretty much all the connection options offered here.
Design, Battery, and Portability
Its physical design focuses on convenience and use over time:
- Mounting: The transmitter can now be attached by a rotating clamp or a magnetic mount.
- Battery Life: A full charge within the transmitter will permit it to run for about 8 hours, while the receiver will run for about 10 hours.
- Charging Case: This comes with a universal charging case allowing two transmitters and one receiver, extending the total operational autonomy to almost 28 hours.
Pricing and Configurations
The DJI Mic 3 comes in two primary packages:
- An all-inclusive little one with a charging case, two transmitters, and one receiver at a cost of 309 euros.
- A little set of one transmitter and one receiver goes for 199 euros.
