So, I thought I'd share my experience of setting up the Rode Wireless Go with you! If you're new to this, having a solid setup workflow will help you to set up quicker, easier and with less fuss so you can get on with filming.

Your explanation very good but you should add B-Roll so audience can see the details what you're trying explain.

Thank you, Fairclough Studios! The only thing I had to find is where exactly is the volume, but following your setup made it work. Many thanks :)

Best straight forward and to the point with clear and precise info. Thank you. I wanted to know if the audio would be automatically synced to the video so i can save time in post production and you answered that clearly for me. Cheers happy new yr.

Great demo mate, I have a wireless go sat in my Amazon wish list, just hoping the price will come down a bit. I want to use one on my Gopro hero 8 for vloging hooked up to the media mod. Looking forward to watching your unboxing/reviews etc. Best wishes Jon.

You and me both! I've just relented and bought a second one (a white one this time!), I really am impressed with the first one, I'll get some sample audio up as soon as I get some editing time. I'm finding more and more uses for it, the only thing that worries me is the amount of faulty ones you see being sold on eBay, hopefully it doesn't mean they're not up to the job!

Thanks so much for watching! If you've taken the microphone unit out of range or obscured it too much it might drop connection - just check the top of the receiver unit next time to check that you have a good connection between the TX and RX units :)

if you can connect the audio signal between the Rode and the camcorder, via a connection with a digital recorder, that would be ideal.. you would have two audio tracks... :)

@faircloughstudios2552 3 жыл бұрын

I got it from Wex for around £170, it's a great bit of kit I use to get feed audio out of a PA and into camera for a scratch track, and also into an external recorder so I can hit record from camera position. The in built mics are also pretty decent in a pinch, but I mainly use it as a small lightweight transceiver system when filming and live streaming. I really like them!

@snap-n-shoot 3 жыл бұрын

Odd that the transmitter jack for a mic is trs out and not trrs out. They should make it trrs out and ship the SC7 by default. This means that the lav Pro cannot be directly connected to the transmitter but an additional SC4 is required to use the lav mic. as most modern pcs are not single jack trrs this makes more sense.

@faircloughstudios2552 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, although I don't use it with a lav and I'm thankful that I don't have adapters to deal with when i'm setting up in a hurry - usually i use it to get a feed out of a PA via XLR-TRS and send it to the camera position to get a scratch track with quality audio to sync to my other sources, but yeah if you're using it with a lav you're better off using regular trs lavs.

How do you set up 2 microphones on one camera

@faircloughstudios2552 3 жыл бұрын

You'd have to use an external recorder for one of them - I actually use a Zoom H1 for the second Rode unit, and then I have a scratch track on camera and can sync the two together. There might be other ways but not to get 2 discrete channels into a mirrorless camera, internally, and simultaneously.

@snap-n-shoot 3 жыл бұрын

@Y0ung8lood You can... For an iPhone use the dedicated Rode SC6-L which lets you connect 2 mics to 1 phone (its a lightning connector for iphone) You can also use the SC6 which is 2 TRRS inputs and a headphone jack for Android as its a TRRS jack but it can connect tot he iPhone lightning to headphone adapter also. Each reciever needs to be connected to the SC6 or SC6_L using the SC7 as it is TRS out from the receiver and needs to be TRRS to the splitter. I use 2 Rode Go's connected to an iPhone 12 Max Pro using the SC6_L and SC7 cables. Works fine.

If You've got an old entry level dsl like my Nikon d3100 it DOES NOT have a mic so this WILL NOT WORK. Just in case anybody with the same caera as mine is wondering why the mic doesn't work. That AV out jack is NOT a mic jack, so it won't work. You have to either record sound with an external recorder and sync in post (pain) or but another camera (expensive). Yay !
