Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. What is the lav mic that comes with the kit? I tried using a bubblebee concealer for W Lav Mic Pro and it does not fit.
A: Anyone of the following lava system will accommodate the Deity microphones pocket wireless digital microphone system. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/accessories/Lavalier-Microphones-for-the-Deity-Microphones-PWB-Black/1665635-REG-47940
Q: 2. Can I plug USB-C wired headphones into the Boya receiver on my iPhone 16 so I can listen to the audio as I'm recording it?
A: Using a wired set of headphones to monitor audio in real time is not possible with the BOYA OMIC-U 2-Person Wireless Microphone System with USB-C Connector for Mobile Devices (Black). After the recording is complete, the audio signal can only be heard during playback.
Q: 3. How can you record all 4 channels independently using a recorder like the Sound Devices Mix Pre 6?
A: The Comica Audio Vimo Q Mini 4-Person Wireless Microphone System provides a combined output signal with the audio from all 4 mics, so it is not possible to record each mic independently.
Q: 4. Can the input level be controlled with an app or receiver?
A: Input gain for the BOYA BY-W4 Ultracompact 4-Person Wireless Microphone System for Cameras and Smartphones is controlled by physical buttons on the transmitters.
Q: 5. Can I use that mic with iPhone?
A: Yes, you can use the Blink 500 Pro wireless mic system with an iPhone. The system includes two receiver outputs cables for cameras and mobile devices. Use the 3.5mm TRS to TRRS cable combined with a Lightning adapter like the Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (B&H # APLAADAP) which will convert the TRRS plug to Lightning and allow the receiver to connect with your iPhone.
Q: 6. The manual says no less than 3 meters between transmitter and receiver. I want to use a smaller distances sometimes. Will it work? What will I get at 2 meters?
A: The manual for the Mackie EleMent Wave LAV Compact Digital Wireless Lavalier Microphone System for Cameras and Smartphones specifies an operation range of 70 meters / 230 feet. A distance of 2 meters between transmitter and receiver is quite suitable for proper operation.
Q: 7. I'd like to connect this to a Zoom H6. Could you recommend a USB c to XLR male cable? Thank You!
A: Unfortunately there are no USB-C to XLR male cables available to send analog audio out of the Deity Microphone's Pocket Wireless Digital Receiver into the analog input on the Zoom H6 Portable Handy Recorder, only USB-C to XLR female cables that are used to send analog audio into a digital input.
Q: 8. Does the receiver work directly with a Ninja V recorder? The Mic/Line in jack needs a powered mic source (it doesn't provide power like the camera mic jack does).
A: Yes, the receiver in the Deity Microphones Pocket Wireless Digital Microphone System for Cameras and Smartphones should be capable of sending a compatible signal into the Mic/Line input on the Atomos Ninja V 5" 4K HDMI Recording Monitor.
Q: 9. Does someone make a single cable (USB-C to XLR) solution to avoid using multiple adapters (more points of failure)?
A: XLR is an analog connection, and USB is digital. This means that an adapter cable will not be sufficient, and any product converting one to another must contain a DAC/ADC chip. For this reason a single adapter cable is not possible.
Q: 10. If I bought two of these kits, could I connect the two receivers to a Zoom recorder to record 4 people?
A: Yes, you can use two Blink 500 Pro 2 systems at the same time by connecting each receiver to a separate input on a Zoom recorder. That will allow you to record four people simultaneously.
