HOLLYLAND LARK MAX 2 Breaks New Ground in Wireless Audio
The Hollyland LARK MAX 2 is a new wireless microphone system designed for content creators, filmmakers, and anyone serious about great audio. This new wireless microphone system promises to make recording professional-grade audio easier and clearer than ever before.
Crystal-Clear Sound from Start to Finish
The standout feature is called FocalClear Technology. Think of it like this: just as a camera lens focuses light to create a sharp image, FocalClear focuses on your voice while filtering out background noise naturally. This system effectively filters out unwanted background noise, making your voice stand out. For even better sound, you can use a furry windshield to block out wind.
The microphone records at very high quality – 48 kHz with 32-bit float recording. This means it captures every detail of your voice, from whispers to loud speech, without any distortion. Whether you’re making a podcast, streaming, or creating videos, your voice comes through exactly as it should.
Smart Noise Cancellation for Perfect Audio
One of the standout features is the advanced AI Noise Cancellation. This isn’t just basic noise reduction; it’s smart. The system understands different sounds and can separate your voice from background noise, whether it’s keyboard clicks, car horns, or even thunderstorms. You can even adjust how much noise it cancels out, from a little to a lot (5dB to 25dB), giving you super clear audio right from the start, saving you time in editing.
Flexibility for Every Creator
The LARK MAX 2 offers incredible flexibility for different shooting situations:
- Multi-Person Recording: One receiver can connect to up to four transmitters at once, making it perfect for interviews, group discussions, or any setup with multiple speakers.
- Built-in Recording: Each tiny transmitter has 8GB of storage, letting you record up to 14 hours of high-quality audio directly on the device. This acts as a safe backup, so you never lose important sound, and the transmitters can even work as standalone voice recorders.
- Automatic Gain Control (AGC): This smart feature automatically adjusts the volume levels as you record, preventing your audio from sounding too loud or distorted. This means you don’t have to worry about fiddling with settings manually during a shoot.
Effortless Workflow and Monitoring
Hollyland has thought about every step of the creative process:
- Wireless Monitoring: You can listen to your camera’s audio wirelessly using special “OWS” earphones that come with the system. This allows cameramen to move freely up to 100 meters away without missing any sound. You can also monitor audio from your smartphone directly through the receiver or the earphones, making it great for live streaming.
- Comfortable Earphones: The OWS earphones have a trendy open-ear design, so they’re comfortable to wear all day without blocking out your surroundings. They also double as regular Bluetooth earphones for music or calls.
- Timecode Sync: For filmmakers, a built-in timecode system perfectly syncs your camera’s video with the recorded audio, saving a huge amount of time in editing.
- Easy Setup: The hot-shoe adapter keeps your camera setup clean by reducing messy cables.
- Stable Connection: Advanced 2.4 GHz technology helps ensure clear audio with very low delay (20ms), even in busy places like city streets or event venues.
Smart Design for On-the-Go Creators:
The LARK MAX 2 features an innovative “Hover-Clip” design that makes attaching the microphone quick and secure. Unlike traditional clips, it easily snaps into place and can also be used with a magnet for flexible placement options. The transmitters offer long battery life (11 hours, extendable to 36 hours with the charging case), and the receiver can even charge your phone when connected.
