Budget wireless mic that actually sounds good? Need recs
I do freelance video work on the side, mostly promos and product videos. Audio quality actually matters because clients notice when it's bad.
A while back I bought a cheap wireless mic to save some cash. Huge mistake. There was this constant hiss on every recording. At first I thought it was my environment, but even in a dead quiet room it was rough. One client even told me my finished work didn't seem professional enough which was really infuriating.
Since then, I've been hunting for a proper wireless mic. The DJI Mic 2 looks solid, but it's way more than I want to spend on something that isn't my main income. Recently I came across the DJI Mic Mini 2. The price is noticeably lower than the flagship, but it still has the charging case and magnetic clip. Makes me wonder if this might actually be the sweet soot for someone like me, or if I'm just setting myself up for another letdown.
Has anyone tried the Mini 2? Really don't want to cheap out and regret it a second time.
