  • The microphones should now be set up correctly for future use. You may proceed to the next section on use.

Using the Microphones

  • If you have already set up the microphone app, just ensure that the microphone receiver has been plugged in as shown in the section above
  • Open the Holly Audio app and ensure that the microphones are detected (green lights)
  • Open your voice recorder app (or Camera if your want to record video). Your built-in voice and/or camera apps should automatically use the Hollyland microphones for sound input without additional changes.
  • Both mics have a magnetic oval to clip the lapel mic onto the shirt of the person speaking. Take care when removing the microphone from the person's shirt to not lose the magnet.
Mic placement: There are two lapel mics for stereo recording. You can either place one mic on either shoulder lapel of the person speaking, or place one mic on one person and another mic on another person to capture both sides of a conversation.

Voice Recording/Memos

Apple iOS (iPhone)

  • Open search on your phone and search for "Voice Memos"
