FAQ

Can I use the Mini Combo with a Lightning iPhone?

Yes, with a USB-C to Lightning cable that is not in this box. Hollyland's manual connects the camera receiver to iPhone 14 series and earlier phones with that cable and tells you to buy it separately if needed. The USB-C plug receiver is the direct route for phones with a USB-C port.

Why can I still hear traffic when noise cancellation is on?

Hollyland describes the LARK M2S noise cancellation as eliminating low-frequency noise, and the LarkSound app has Strong and Weak levels. Switch it on with the transmitter button, the button on the USB-C receiver or a press of the camera receiver knob, and look for the green light. One Mini Combo buyer said car and bike horns still came through on a phone recording, so it may not remove every outside sound.

Can I record to a camera and a phone at the same time?

Yes, through the camera receiver. Hollyland says it can output from the 3.5mm TRS jack and the USB-C port at the same time, so you can record on two devices using an adapter cable. Hollyland's manual adds that Safety Track mode is not supported when the camera receiver is connected to a phone through USB-C.

How many volume steps does the camera receiver have?

Three: high, medium and low, with medium as the factory default. Turn the knob clockwise to raise the level and single-click the power button to lock it. Hollyland does not publish how many dB each step changes.

Can four people use the Mini Combo at once?

The kit is built for two people, with two transmitters and receiver indicators labelled for TX1 and TX2. Hollyland does not publish a four-transmitter setup for the LARK M2S, so for a four-person interview look at the Hollyland LARK MAX 2 Combo 4-Person system that Filmgear Canada carries.
