DJI Launches Mic 3, a Smaller Wireless Kit With Timecode and 4-Mic Support

The creator-focused kit is available in Europe now, though DJI says U.S. sales are on hold.

Overview

  • The system supports up to four transmitters and eight receivers with embedded timecode and an optional quadraphonic output mode for select Sony cameras or software.
  • Each transmitter offers dual-file internal recording up to 32-bit float with 32 GB of storage, plus Adaptive Gain Control, three voice tone presets, two-level noise canceling, and lossless 48 kHz 24-bit transmission.
  • DJI cites automatic hopping between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands for interference resistance, with most reports stating a 400-meter range and at least one outlet listing 300 meters.
  • Battery claims include about eight hours per transmitter and ten hours for the receiver, a charging case providing roughly 2.4 full recharges for around 28 hours total, and a five-minute quick charge adding about two hours.
  • Transmitters weigh 16 grams and add a rotating clip, the case now stores windscreens and clips, the system pairs directly with DJI cameras via OsmoAudio, and the transmitters no longer include a 3.5 mm lav input.
