FAQ

Do they work with iPhone and Android?

Most include a USB-C receiver. iPhone 15 and later use USB-C; for older models you need the Lightning version or an adapter. Check the connections row on each product page.

Do I need two transmitters?

Only if you record interviews or podcasts with two people. For talking to the camera alone, one transmitter is enough and saves money.

What is onboard recording?

The transmitter keeps a copy of the audio in its memory. If the wireless signal drops, you don't lose the take.
