At IBC 2023 we had the prospect to speak to Hollyland in regards to the distinctive MaxTimbre Mic expertise that’s used within the LARK MAX wi-fi microphone system. Quite a lot of analysis has gone into designing and creating the LARK MAX to make it carry out and sound higher than its competitor’s merchandise.
Earlier than creating the LARK MAX, Vivian Lu from Hollyland defined that numerous time went into analysis, which ended up changing into their patent-pending MaxTimbre Mic expertise. Mainly, combining one of the best of each present microphone applied sciences and utilizing premium supplies makes the LARK MAX sound higher than most rivals on this value vary.
MaxTimbre Mic Know-how
The LARK MAX, which we already reviewed, contains one receiver and two transmitters. Contained in the transmitters, the particular construction of the sound cavity is designed to optimize the sound being recorded. Hollyland additionally filed for a patent on this design.
There are two facets that have an effect on the standard of recording sound – the {hardware} construction and the sign processing. The most important differentiating issue between low cost and costly microphones is the standard of supplies and the {hardware} construction.

Generally, there are two forms of microphones – Electret Condenser Microphones (ECM) and Micro Electro-Mechanical Programs (MEMS). Each have professionals and cons:
- ECMs are low cost, simple to mass produce, they usually can seize extra sound particulars however, on the con facet, they’re additionally very large.
- MEMS have a smaller design however can’t seize ample sound particulars.
Better of each microphone worlds
Hollyland got down to combine the benefits of MEMS and the sound cavity of EMC to enhance sound high quality. What they achieved is an enhanced {hardware} construction with the assistance of a multi-layer design. There are six layers with particular constructions contained in the LARK MAX transmitters that enhance the sound high quality.
