In this episode we finally review the much-anticipated DJI Mic 2! This new generation of one of the most-loved consumer wireless systems on the market brings it up to date with the rest of the comparable market: 32-bit float capability, dual-channel recording, 250 meter range, and improved 18-hour total battery life. In this video we’ll listen to some sound samples and feature tests, take an in-depth look at everything new to this version, and compare it to the RODE Wireless PRO. Let’s take a closer look and listen!
