## Questions & Answers

**Q: With the mobile kit can you insert the phone vertically instead of horizontally?**
A: Yes. Rotate the clamp horizontally and clamp the phone from the right and left sides.

**Q: I recently purchased the mke440 but the light blinks red and it blinks faster and faster finally the indicator just stays red. there is no signal too?**
A: The light blinks once when it is turned on, that's it. If you only turn it half on, you get the wind muffler. There is no signal.

**Q: Is the cord hardwired? on the mke 200 and 400 it is a threaded trrs female jack.**
A: It is wired. Includes TRS male on both (mic side) and one of each a TRS (camera) and TRRS (smartphone, etc.) male to male cable.

**Q: Will this mount on a Go Pro Hero 10?**
A: Not directly. You’d need some kind of casing with a cold shoe mount. You might look into the media case for the GoPro which has a mic.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***. on 9 November 2025*

Great audio bandwith, but at a cost of quite high self nose that is on correspodning boost settings at 16/26/40dB. Nothing that denoise can't handle but always need to remember to register few sec of silence for a denoiser. Pairing with camera directly, it's best to set mic boost at max anyway, because almost every camera has even worse self noise when boosting audio in camera instead.
