Compatible GoPro Hero Models

This adapter connects a 3.5 mm microphone to Hero 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 and 5 Black cameras via the USB Type-C port. It is designed for vloggers and creators who need clearer audio than the built-in microphones provide. The unit includes a built-in 160dB stereo analog-to-digital converter for digital audio capture.

Plug-and-Play Installation

No drivers, apps or firmware updates are required; simply insert the adapter into the camera and plug in the microphone. The 90° angled connector keeps the cable close to the body for a secure fit during movement. Users should ensure the 3.5 mm plug is fully seated to avoid intermittent audio or connection loss.

Pre-Purchase Checks

Verify that your camera is one of the listed Hero Black models, as other GoPro variants are not supported. Confirm your external microphone uses a standard 3.5 mm TRS or TRRS plug compatible with the adapter's input. The adapter draws power from the camera, so ensure the battery has sufficient charge for your recording session.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the adapter is functioning after connecting it to my Hero 13 Black?

Plug a 3.5 mm microphone into the adapter, start recording on the camera, then play back the clip. Clean, distortion-free audio with no delay confirms the built-in 160dB stereo analog-to-digital converter is working correctly.

What comes in the package and do I need to purchase anything else to use it?

The package contains one Type-C to 3.5 mm microphone adapter. You must supply your own 3.5 mm microphone; no additional apps, tools, firmware or cables are required.

Which version should I choose for a Hero 10 Black versus a Hero 13 Black?

A single version fits all listed cameras — Hero 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 and 5 Black — so the same adapter works for both models.
