Oh man, same here. Like, immediately welling up. Congrats from another brother!

You did the best advert for Hollyland anyone could have ever done - one of the most important memories anyone can ever have is the birth of their child. My little guy is 3mo old now and I would have LOVED to have had some sort of recording of that moment. Never once did I think to bring in my DJI mic kit to grab audio - even that audio by itself is a tear jerker.

1) your brother is todays version of Uncle Si from Duck Dynasty and i fucking love it 2) Audio engineer here....noise cancellation doesnt need the entire human ear frequency spectrum to work (20hz - 20khz) It just takes whatever sound is captured, creates two versions of it inside, and flips the polarity 180 degrees of one of the 2 tracks it records and you get what we call "Phase Cancellation". Its when two of the same *EXACT* sound waves play at the same time, but one sound wave with the polaritiy flipped. So one sound wave in the specturum where the wave refracts, the other one compresses, cancelling eachother out and you get....pure silence. Science is cool lol. This is how us EDM guys will extract vocals out of songs we want to remix that doesnt have Studio Acapellas freely available. We find the instrumental to the song, match it up to the original song, flip the instrumentals polarity in our favorite DAW (Digital Audio Workstation....fancy word for - program we make our fire beats in) and the only thing left is the vocals because that part isnt in the instrumental so thats the only part not affected by the phase cancellation. Noise Cancellation works exactly the same way but its programed to learn what the human voice sounds like, keep ONLY the human voice, and "Phase cancel" any other sound. Capturing more low end doesnt make this process and better or worse in quality. Its more so HOW they program the noise cancel algorithm to do it right. I would also like to add while there are some Mics that have good phase cancellation...i would recommend learning how to do this in post because this is what we call a "destructive" recording. Whats done is done and theres no bringing it back. Thats how it was recorded at the source. But if you turn off noise cancellation, do it in post - you can fine tune how much it noise cancels or maybe even come to the conclusion...you dont want any at all. Sometimes I notice with some other mics that do this (even higher end ones) it doesnt always do exactly a good job at it in some enviornments...so i just continued to do it in post production instead so i can have it at a level I want it at. Not what the microphone manufacturer wants it at. 3) To your point of EQing and how the mics sound, all the mics you tested MOST LIKELY (im only speculating) are all using the same exact microphones inside. They most likely all get them from the same vendor and most likely a chinese vendor. Thats not a bad thing...if it sounds good.....well then it sounds good. Headphone companies are kinda the same thing. One headphone thats 300 dollars could have the same EXACT drivers as a 100 dollar headphone. They could sound different because of the EQ curves inside....but all in all...theyre the same. So why does the 300 dollar one cost more? Because Apple bought them out and slapped Dr. Dre's name on them and called them "Beats By Dre". Thats why. Why theyll sound different is sound is a subjective thing. What might sound good to the people at Rode, might not sound good to the people at DJI, so to your point - they just EQ the mic curves differently. For some mics to be cutting out 20hz - 40hz, its propbably the decision by the company to cut those out because youll end up cutting them out anyway in post so why record them in the first place? I bought the fakest DJI clones on amazon for like 30 bucks and the sound quality was.....ehhhhh lmfao. I needed them in a pinch because I dont have a 2 wireless lav mic set up and needed them this weekend so I got these cheapo's just for this one shoot. Testing them, i just applied an EQ curve to it in Davinci resolve until it sounded REALLY good, just saved it as a preset (literally called "Cheap Amazon Mic") and it sounds just like my Rode.

Congrats Josh and family! All the best.

You have THE BEST production quality of any Tech review KZreadrs. You got the storytelling perfected.

Great comparison. I've been waiting for a video like this thank you. Also congratulations on the baby girl. 🎉

Amazing review. Congrats on the growing family!!!

Such a precious moment at the end. Congrats!!🎉

I love your new set with the screens. It looks great! Also love those graphics on distance. Very cool.

10:39 = Those graphics are the best I've seen in any vid. So much style and useful info in one frame.

Nice to see the review on those! I'm making mine right now as well. Lark Max are amazing!

Congrats on the new baby! Great review and a fantastic promo that you would trust that most important moment to their equipment.

Mannn I love your channel so much! been watching it since I saw Animorphia. I'm always so impressed with your editing. Would love to see more of you behind the computer 🖥

This review was fantastic. You did way more than I would have expected to thoroughly test everything and I can really appreciate that.

Always ending with a smile! Good on you Josh! Congrats!

Excellent video all round with just the right information that owners/potential buyers need to know. I couldn't agree with you more re: a 32 bit float option in future iterations. Thanks!

My biggest gripe with these type of mics is the SPL. I tend to work in very loud enviorments and just wondered if you have tried yelling or being around 110dB+ The lark max has 128 dB SPL and the DJI mic has 114 dB so these must work better in loud environments! Great overview man!

Congrats on ur newborn! And this is impressive comparison. Love the ideas on how U wanna capture and preserve the voice of ur dad and ur new board!

I really appreciate all the effort u put into this video. Really thorough!

This comparative review is exactly what I needed, thanks!

DJI could score a huge win if they integrated their transmitters into their DJI OSMO Action 4 and Pocket cameras or released timecode versions with 32-bit audio and had BT timecode generators in their Action, pocket, and other cameras. Would be awesome to just sync up and not really worry about audio.

When I got my DJI lavs and found out they DIDN'T do this, I was like "what...the fuck..."

The video is great, but the last 10 seconds are just the best. Congratulations!

I really wish Zoom would come with a wireless set including 32BIT float. I have the Zoom F3 and it's amazing!

Great video it was so interesting through out the beginning to the very end. Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing

Amazed with the review and the graphics, such an inspiration man, thank you!

That was interesting to me. I'm working on my own wireless system that is 32bit with high dynamic range mic in smaller package (more like a thumbdrive shape). Big thing for me is connecting up to 4 mics to single receiver with usb connecting to computer (4 channel audio card).

I've never cried watching a gear review video before. Wow. Congrats for your family...that's the best sound ever!

I'm new to your channel and the editing is AWEEEEESSOOOOMMMMEEEEE! What editing software you use? Davinci?

Great production and information. Thanks!

Amazing to involve your Dad! Awesome memories!

Literally jus got my Lark Max this morning in the UK. Can't wait to test

Bro you are so rad I love you’re vids you’re vibe and now you flipping dad I respect the work you put in to all you’re vids man I genuinely don’t care where you go with this channel I will be here . Just thought I would let you know bro Merry Christmas to you and your cool little family From a guy in Sydney Australia

You can copy files directly from the RØDE Wireless Go II mounted on the desktop, this feature has been available for a while. but it is very easy to over modulate the RØDE Wireless Go II in my experience. I always use a white noise generator for mic range tests so there is constant noise.

Break out the cigars Daddy-O, congratulations! Excellent review, these are worlds ahead of my old wireless lavs. Love the transmitter recording capability. Thanks.

Awesome review. I would have also liked to see how sensitive they are to loud noises like the Rode.

Great review. I video concerts locally with my phone as keepsakes for the singers, and family and friends living away, do you think these would be a good improvement to the built in microphone?

CONGRATUALTIONS ON YOUR NEW BABY GIRL JOSH!!!

I love this guys humor thank you for the video amazing

super impressive review, love the comedy injected into the video. Awesome graphics.

That ending....... wow! Congratulations, being a parent is the best job in the world!

Josh one question, if the transmitter and receiver are connected via USB all the time, will the receiver turn off by itself or can it go into sleep mode? I'm wondering if when I turn on the camera, will the receiver also automatically turn on?

Master in thorough reviews! Ill try to do as u do Sensei 🙏🏻

Congrats Josh!!

Good stuff. Thanks for the video.

So sweet you made this video with your dad. Wish I did the same but back then I didn't make videos and now it's late.

Nice coverage. 👍

Hey Josh! Thanks for pointing out the difference between the Stereo and the safety recording.I haven't seen anyone else break that down. And it's a bit confusing, as you can't use the Safety recording if you are using both mics at the same time without the two mixing together. At least if I understand how it works. Hollyland's video doesn't go into any details.

I’m must be one of the 4 girls watching this channel … who are the other 3😅?!? No need for an apology, thanks for the laughs instead 😆💨!

Great break down and comparison video! You nailed it near the end their with that final comment - internal 32 bit float. While a 2nd lower level safety track helps, I often find myself needing to bring voice levels up. Sometimes way up. After using 32 bit in the Zoom F3 for the last couple years it's hard to go back to 24 bit. I literally turn it on, see that there's an audio wave and proceed with filming.

Great video! How is the Larx latency? Online it says less than 25 Ms. How noticeable is it?

Fantastic video! And so amazing to be a part of your daughters first seconds! ❤️

one issue with the old lark 150 was that case battery would be drained entirely in about 1-2days if left unused/charged. Unfortunately the workaround i got suggested by hollyland was to put tape on the metal contacts on the transmitters to prevent the phantom drain from happening. Hope they've solved this issue.

Hey Josh, Made it to the end and Congrats!

This was the best review I have ever seen about the Lark Max!!!!!

I wouldn't be surprised to discover that the Hollyland, Fulaim and Mailada mics all come from the same factory. So many similarities in design and functionality. I have a Fulaim X5 and very happy with it especially as a cheaper version of the Hollyland.

Congrats Josh!

Really great in depth review. Well done sir and thank you for sharing this. I'm just a novice creator and about to launch a new YT channel based on everything I have learnt over the last two years. Now I realise that I need some half decent lav mics to improve my sound. I love the creative side and the editing too. I just sub'd to your channel too. Kind regards from the UK. 😎

Another Masterclass Review lol. So detailed and effective shown. Amazing work. As always !!! Aloha

Wow! You made the best review of this. I also find Hollyland Lark Max better than Rode Wireless Go.

Dame ! next level review. thanks

Deity is coming out with a similar mic system and it will have 32 bit float just like their newly released UHF system. I saw it a NAB but not at Cine Gear LA. So hopefully they haven't given up on it. I'm using the Zoom F2-BT and I love the fact that I don't have to set the levels anymore. It's been a real boost to my work flow. For work related projects, I'll have to give these a try. Great comparison Video! Also, Congrats on the new arrival!

Yeah I briefly covered them with my NAB video. They look legit, a bit bigger than these guys, also priced at $1000. One thing I read today is they wont allow simultaneous internal recording while transmitting for US customers due to patent infringement issues. Not sure how thats enforced, but Id get my hands on a European version in that case.

Congratulations!

Congratulation!!!

I hope that they SOLVED the internal clock problems. With RODE i have a lot problems with them not being constantly synced. Its extremely frustrating :D

I'm def gonna buy this for my production company

I've been using the DJI wireless mic system, and love it for the most part. I do wish there were more options for mounting the receiver on a caged camera other than hotshoe. There's a couple 3D printed options or jerry rigging, but nothing attractive. That may be more on the side of companies like Smallrig to come up with solutions to something like this. But that hotshoe attachment on DJI doesn't instill much confidence as far as durability.

I have the Rode Wireless Go ii, but lost one of the transmitters after only clipping it onto my son’s football team QB, he got hit during practice and it popped off (big mistake on my part). The Rode was how I found out the 3.5mm jack on my a7iii was broken though. $300 later to repair the a7iii and I also got an fx30 but made the mistake of not getting it with the audio handle. Then I got the Dji mic, and the modularity of it is great, but frustrating that there isn’t a Sony multi shoe interface for the receiver.

Great job and great video. I honestly hope you read this. Please appreciate your father, because you never know when he might be gone. I miss my dad so much it hurts. All the things I accomplished, I wish that he was here to see them.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing it. ✌️

Congrats on the addition to the family. Side note i guess its time to compare this to the rode wireless pro

Would like to see an even smaller size one, something like the half the current size without compromising on battery life.

I had (what I thought was) a witty comment all ready to go about including family flatulence in this review and then I heard the final 10 seconds, and... no need for anything other than congratulations. And thanks for sharing that beautiful audio with us! ❤

What are your thoughts on the new Ankerworks mic? Love to see a review on those compared to these 3!

Holy shit I just lost my original hollyland and I was so bumbed... and just learned that this one came out and your video is outstanding. Question, I'm not a pro like you. I just create content on my phone. Can I record just on my phone? v. Having to record sound separate

I need! To know what camera/lens yoir using! Please

The best review and comparison of DJI and Holy LAND from all of which I looked at, thank you.

Congrats on your baby girl!!!

How to manually adjust the gain for each separate mic during recording?

Can you adjust the internal recording level? Because I had the dji mic but the internal recording level is way too low and can not adjust it.

Thank you. I'm buying it based on your review. Great job. Only I'm getting it off Amazon UK because its currently £90 off. Congrats on the baby girl. Children are a blessing. Cheers J

very good comparision 🤩 and the last 15 sec of the video 👧🏻,,,, congratulations 🤗

I love this 🖤

You make me want to buy them! 😊👍

If you have 3 speakers can you add one more transmitter?

Could any of these mics be used to capture live music? I motorcycle camp and space is very limited, i am crazy enough for even bringing a guitar! I need something small, and wireless, clipped on that isn't obtrusive in the video, that i can connect to my x8 recorder to record vocals, and maybe one other instrument.

can i use the transmitter from a line in source like a digital mixer? Thanks

the clip on the lark max, is it hot/cold shoe sized?

We NEED to see a review of this but with the Rode Wireless PRO added in!

Thanks for the great vid! I was hoping for one big thing comparing these three. What's the difference in sound quality when recording with a lav mic through 1/8 input? I've heard Rumors the Rode is best here. Also, question. How easy is it to accidentally press the side-record button on the Hollyland? And also, how easy is it to accidentally switch on the noise-cancellation in the menu system? Hope to hear back and thanks so much again! :D

They all sound great when transmitted. Rose just punches thur a bit brighter with less muddy frequencies when vlogging outdoors. Your other two questions are more of an issue I think. Both of those buttons can be pressed very easily when handling the mics. And after I did the episode I had a professional shoot and one of the talent hit the record button accidentally and I had to redo it on my end. The good news is it was very easily for me to see on my end and monitor and correct in the moment.

@@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL Thanks a million for answering! 😀

Seems good for what it is but TimeCode and then 32 bit would convince me to go spend some cash. I guess in most circumstances you would be fine with all 3 but the ui would probably clinch it

32bit float and timecode hey? almost like you could see the future. I was going to buy the DJI mic but so much has changed in the last few months...

I have the Rhode go but I needed to get a longer cord. My a7siii kept getting interference

Omg thankx for this review. Much needed. And your brother geez lol..

Nice ! I think I'm going with the Tascam F2 tho

ahh man.. Congrats! 🎉🎉

This stuff is getting good when it comes to Audi quality. My problem is that so much of this didn’t do well with high RF noise floors. Even our Sony and Lectrosonics need to have channels set to be mission critical. Tried the cheap stuff and I keep finding myself dumping it to get the more expensive stuff that is reliable for a paid gig.

Pro Tipp: Get some stickers printed with your Channel Name and put it over the company logo :)

You think Hollyland could add timecode capability via a simple firmware update?
