Extended Product Information

FAQs

How long does the battery last on a single charge?

Each transmitter offers up to 14 hours of recording time. The receiver provides around 8 hours. With the charging case, the total system runtime can extend up to 36 hours.

Can I use the system with my smartphone?

Yes, the included USB-C receiver can connect directly to most USB-C equipped smartphones (Android and newer iPhones) and tablets for high-quality audio recording.

What is the maximum wireless range?

The Hollyland LARK MAX 2 Combo has a maximum transmission range of up to 300 meters (1000 ft) in open, unobstructed environments.

How do I update the firmware?

Firmware updates are typically managed through a companion application or software provided by Hollyland, which can be downloaded from their official website.

Is the lavalier microphone included?

Yes, the LARK MAX 2 Combo typically includes lavalier microphones that clip onto the transmitters for discreet audio capture.

Can I record audio directly onto the transmitter?

Yes, each transmitter has internal storage capable of recording up to 14 hours of audio independently of the receiver.

Does the system support stereo recording?

While you can capture two separate mono sources with the dual transmitters, the system is designed for dual mono output. For true stereo, you would typically need to process the two tracks individually in post-production.

Troubleshooting

No audio output from receiver

Ensure transmitters and receiver are powered on and paired. Check that the receiver is correctly connected to the recording device (camera/computer). Verify audio input settings on the recording device.

Intermittent audio dropouts

Move transmitters and receiver closer to each other. Minimize obstructions between them. Try changing the operating channel if interference is suspected. Ensure batteries are sufficiently charged.

High background noise despite noise cancellation

Adjust the AI noise cancellation level. Ensure the microphone capsule on the transmitter is not covered. Check if the noise source is too close or too loud for the system to fully eliminate.

Device not charging

Ensure the charging case is connected to a power source via USB-C. Clean the charging contacts on the transmitters and case. Try a different USB-C cable and power adapter.
