    This is a great review! So glad you mentioned that you still CAN clip with 32bit. I feel like this is a common misconception. I found that this is true especially in loud environments where it's easy to push too much air into the capsule (say, in a busy street) while someone is speaking. Better than 24 for sure, but will largely depend on the mic you use.

    Thanks so much for the kind words! You're totally right with the clipping thing too. It's less about "if" you can clip and it's more about "where" in the chain of things you're clipping. Mic capsules can only take so much and eventually, we all output to 16 or 24 bit so you have to make sure you've recovered what you want to recover!

    I could go with either one without really noticing much to be honest. These kind of built on transmitter mics or even lav mics generally don't sound super great because of size and placement and always require some kind of extra work to get them sounding how I like (compared to a nicely place shotgun mic). You're very right about the shiny front, I feel like we'll see a lot of people with a lot of black gaff tape soon haha.

Could we use 32bit float together with timecode as you mentioned the 32 bit float doesnt work with the recording on receiver but timecode does need the receiver to be plugged in to the camera. 2. Could we auto record with 32 bit float whenever we press record on camera? Is there a setting to do this?

    Good review! Have a Davinci Resolve question: you've synced the footage with the audio; and it shows linked in the Edit page. Does synced audio also shows up linked in the Cut page, and more importantly: in the source tape window? So when you scroll your footage, the clips have the linked audio?

    Thanks for the great review! I have a question. When you set your rec button of a TX on top as 'always' what happens if you press the rec button (not Ø button)? Does it stop the recording or it doesn't stop until you put the tx back to the charging case? I watched many videos and it seems like you can disable Ø button, but for rec button on top, you can only toggle between either 'always' or 'Manual'. Doesn't that mean you can still accidentally stop the recording when you hit rec button on top even if you set it to 'always'?

    I think this is an amazing wireless microphone for the price. I also have DJI Mic and Hollyland Lark Max, but I think that out of the box the sound of RWPro are more full and pleasant, for my voice. I love it much more than others, even they are all fantastic products. I love more the solution of Hollyland Lark Max in term of Display and touch future and the solutions of connecting to camera/mobile/computer of the DJI Mic. Another good video! 😉

I had the same problem with the DJI pocket 3 mic (32bit). Do you have any advice for me ? Thx !

    I completely missed that it ships with a pair of Rode lav mics that do factor into the higher cost, relative to the DJI or the Hollyland Max (currently available for $269 with a pair of their lav mics), even though the internal 32bit recording for reduced audio spike clipping and maybe the timecode are the real value here. Expect DJI and Hollyland to follow suit.

    That’s a tricky price point unfortunately, there’s not a whole lot that I’m super familiar with around $150. I think you were on the right track with the mke600, you may want to look into the deity smic or the rode ntg2 as well but they’re still above your budget so you’d need to find a used deal or something like that. If you’re okay with a 3.5mm jack microphone, I really like the rode videomic go ii and it’s within your budget and sounds great but has no xlr. I wish I had better news for you but hopefully this was somewhat helpful.
