    Hi @artulus , thank you for posting. Yes it is possible to connect the 3Dio to the GoPro Hero 9 using this adapter: https://gopro.com/en/us/shop/mounts-accessories/pro-3.5mm-mic-adapter/AAMIC-001.html

    The adapter is a bit cumbersome, but can dramatically increase the sound quality of your videos when paired with a 3Dio or any other 3.5mm equipped microphone.

    One other option is to use a small digital recorder and record the audio & video separately. In post production, you can use the audio from the GoPro and sync it up with the audio from the 3Dio. This may be a more suitable option and will free up the GoPro mounting location.

    Thanks!

  • The adapter is a little awkward, but when used with a 3Dio or any other 3.5mm equipped microphone, it can significantly improve the sound quality of your recordings.

    Using a little digital recorder and recording the audio and video separately is an additional choice. The audio from the GoPro can be combined with the audio from the 3Dio in post-production. This will free up the GoPro attachment site and might be a better choice.
