Hollyland Lark Max Review vs. RODE Wireless PRO & DJI Mic
In this episode we test out Hollyland’s new Lark Max wireless mic system. This new system is Hollyland’s answer to RODE’s Wireless PRO and to the DJI Mic, and includes active noise cancellation, onboard recording capability, the ever-popular charging case for recording on the go, and user-friendly interfaces and form factors. In this video we talk through the Lark Max’s feature set, demonstrate how to get the most out of the noise cancellation function, and listen to a variety of sound quality samples to help you determine if this system is right for you. Let’s take a closer look!
