Read the following documents before using DJI™ Mic 2.
It is recommended to watch all tutorial videos and read the safety guidelines before using for the first time. Make sure to review the Quick Start Guide before using for the first time and refer to this User Manual for more information.
DJI Mic 2 is a dual channel wireless microphone system, including two transmitters and one receiver, which is able to record two sound sources simultaneously. Each transmitter has a builtin omnidirectional microphone, which can be connected to DJI Osmo Pocket 3, mobile phones and other devices via Bluetooth, and supports standalone recording and intelligent noise cancelling. The transmitter is equipped with a clip for ease of portability, and accommodates external microphones to meet off-camera recording needs while enhancing audio quality.
The receiver boasts an OLED touchscreen, on which users can view the real-time volume levels, wireless signal strength, gain, recording modes, and more. By utilizing the expansion port, the receiver can be connected to a camera or mobile device to capture high-quality audio, or can be used as a microphone when connected to a computer. Additionally, an independent monitor port on the receiver allows for real-time audio adjustments. The charging case provided is able to charge the transmitters and receiver simultaneously and link them automatically.
Overview
LED Information
Blinking Pattern | Descriptions | |
![]() | Solid red | The transmitter is recording independently. |
![]() | Pulses red | The transmitter has been muted. |

A transmitter can be attached to clothing using the magnet, or set upright on a stable surface. The clip can also be used to attach a transmitter to clothes.
It is recommended to use the windscreen when using a transmitter outdoors or in a windy environment. Attach the windscreen to a transmitter by first aligning it with the internal microphone, then press down firmly on the windscreen to attach it.
In the DJI Mic 2 (2 TX + 1 RX + Charging Case) combo and DJI Mic 2 (1 TX + 1 RX) combo, the transmitters and the receiver are linked by default. Follow the steps below to link the transmitters and receiver if they become unlinked. The transmitters and the receiver can be linked automatically by placing them in the charging case, or they can be linked manually.
Method 1: Link automatically in the charging case
Place the transmitters and the receiver in the charging case to link them automatically.
Method 2: Link manually
To record and transmit audio to a camera, attach the receiver to a camera using the cold shoe on the receiver, then connect the receiver to the microphone port of the camera using the camera cable provided, as shown below.
Record and transmit audio to a mobile device by attaching the receiver to a mobile device using the mobile device adapter.
Connect the receiver to a computer via the USB-C port in order to use the transmitter as a microphone.
The touchscreen displays information such as the real-time volume levels, battery levels of the receiver and transmitters, charging status, wireless signal strength, gain, and recording modes. The touchscreen display may vary when linked to different devices. This display is for reference only. The following is an example of the display when the receiver is linked to two transmitters at the same time.

This feature provides a better audio recording experience and helps save power in case the receiver was not powered off. |
![]() | Receiver Auto Off When enabled, the receiver, when not linked to a transmitter within 30 minutes, automatically shuts down after 30 minutes of no use. |
![]() | Link Device Tap to link the receiver with a transmitter. Note that previously linked devices will be forgotten after tapping Link Device. |
Transmitter Settings
![]() | Low Cut When enabled, the transmitter will automatically filter low-frequency (100 Hz and below) sounds, thus reducing low-frequency noise and making for cleaner recordings. |
![]() | Transmitter Gain Adjusts the transmitter input gain. Tap to adjust the transmitter input gain according to the real-time volume. Reduce the gain accordingly when the volume bar turns red. Note that adjusting the transmitter gain will affect the local recording volume. |
![]() | 32-Bit Float Recording When enabled, the transmitter can independently record audio files in 32-bit float, which offers a wider dynamic range for audio post-editing. Note that the recording time of the transmitter will be shorter when recording audio files in 32-bit float is enabled. |
![]() | REC Stop Lock Once enabled, users cannot stop the standalone recording of the transmitter via the record button. |
![]() | Noise Reduction via Button When enabled, press the power button to enable or disable noise reduction. |

The transmitter can be connected to DJI Osmo Pocket 3, mobile phones and other devices via Bluetooth. Taking the transmitter connecting to a mobile phone as an example, the operation steps are as follows:
The transmitter supports standalone recording and comes with 8GB of storage, allowing for up to 14 hours of 48 kHz 24-bit uncompressed audio.
When the transmitter is powered on, press record button to start standalone recording, and press again to stop recording.
While recording 24-bit mono WAV audio, the total recording time of the transmitter is approximately 14 hours. Files automatically split every 31 minutes. Recording stops when storage is full. While recording 32-bit float audio, the total recording time of the transmitter is approximately 11 hours. Files automatically split every 23 minutes. The recorded audio can be exported or deleted after connecting to a computer. Internal storage can also be formatted via the receiver.
Charging with the DJI Mic 2 Charging Case
It is recommended to charge the charging case using a 5 V/2 A charger. The charging case has a built-in battery with a 3250 mAh capacity. Place the transmitter and receiver into the charging case to begin charging. When the charging case is open, the receiver displays the battery level of the three devices and the remaining recording time of the transmitter. The transmitter and receiver will automatically power on once removed from the charging case.
Charging the Transmitters and Receiver
It is recommended to use a charging brick with 5 V/1 A specifications to charge the transmitters and receiver via the DJI Mic USB-C Splitter Charging Cable. It takes about 70 minutes to fully charge the transmitters and receiver.
The DJI Mic 2 charging case holds two transmitters with clip magnets, two mobile device adapters, and a receiver. The mobile device adapter can also be attached on the receiver and placed together.
When there is new firmware available, update the firmware by connecting the transmitters and the receiver to the computer one at a time.
How to update firmware:
If the firmware update fails, download the firmware again, restart the receiver or transmitter, and repeat the steps above. After the firmware update is complete, check the firmware version on the receiver to ensure the firmware has been updated successfully.
DJI Lavalier Mic
The DJI Mic 2 transmitter features a 3.5mm TRS input for use with DJI Lavalier Mics.
Insert the 3.5mm plug of the DJI Lavalier Mic into the 3.5mm input port when in use. The builtin microphone of the transmitter will be unavailable and the DJI Lavalier Mic will be used as the audio input.
When attaching the lavalier mic, clip it to the collar or the front of the shirt, and make sure that the top of the lavalier mic is 15-20 cm away from the mouth. It is recommended that the microphone cable be secured to the inside of the clothing to make sure the microphone stays in place.
