"textContent": "As much as I appreciate the performance of my DJI Mic 2 (and the colourful Mic Mini 2 that I'm currently reviewing), the mic's logo is a bit too dominant. I get that it works for tech brands to stick their logos on everything, but I'd prefer to promote my own brand, thank you very much.\n\nEnter Insta360. With the launch of its new Mic Pro wireless microphone, you can use the the e-ink display on each transmitter to display a custom image or graphic, without draining the battery ridiculously.\n\nUpload any graphic via the Insta360 app: logos, channel art, or talent names for a busy production set.\n\nThe display persists even when the transmitter is powered off, and because e-ink only draws power during a screen refresh, battery life takes no hit. Under direct sunlight, where OLED screens wash out, e-ink stays sharp and readable without any glare.\n\nEach transmitter packs a 3-microphone array, with digital signal processing blending the three inputs to emulate different polar patterns: omnidirectional for ambient capture, cardioid for vlogging or voiceover, figure-8 for two-person interviews.\n\nMount the transmitter directly on a camera and it functions as a directional shotgun mic. An onboard NPU handles AI noise cancellation, designed to cut background noise without flattening the voice.\n\nRecording is 32-bit float, which means clipping is effectively impossible regardless of how loud the subject gets in frame. Each transmitter holds 32GB of onboard storage, recording independently as a wireless backup, with stereo internal recording available at up to 32-bit float quality.\n\nThe system scales to four channels without a mixer. A 4-to-1 mode connects four transmitters to one receiver for podcasts or panel discussions, while a 2-to-4 mode feeds two transmitters to four receivers simultaneously for multi-camera productions.\n\nTimecode sync via a TCXO oscillator keeps audio locked across cameras, drifting less than one frame over 24 hours.\n\nCreators already shooting with Insta360 gear, from the GO 3S to the latest X5 and Ace Pro 2, can connect the Mic Pro directly via Bluetooth and skip the receiver entirely. Dual-transmitter direct connection is coming to future Insta360 camera releases.\n\nBattery life is 10 hours per transmitter, extending to 30 hours with the charging case. A five-minute fast charge adds 1.5 hours of recording time.\n\nSpec| Detail\n---|---\nTransmitter dimensions| 38 × 12.2mm (diameter × height)\nTransmitter weight| 19.7g (without clip)\nPolar patterns| Omnidirectional, cardioid, figure-8, shotgun (camera-mounted)\nNoise cancellation| NPU-powered AI\nInternal recording| Up to 32-bit float, mono and stereo\nOnboard memory| 32GB per transmitter\nBattery life| 10 hours (transmitter); 30 hours with charging case\nFast charge| 5 minutes = 1.5 hours use\nBluetooth| V5.4\nWireless frequency| 2.4GHz\nMax transmitters per receiver| 4 (4-to-1 mode)\nTimecode sync| TCXO oscillator, less than 1 frame drift over 24 hours\n\n## Pricing and availability\n\nThe Insta360 Mic Pro is available now in Australia.
