This week Rode launched a new wireless microphone called the Rode Wireless Me. This is an affordable easy-to-use wireless microphone system geared to those who just want a plug-and-play microphone that sounds great without trying to figure out complicated settings. The Rode Wireless Me is not replacing the Rode Wireless Go 2 but is just a new wireless solution depending on your needs. It offers great broadcast-quality audio with easy-to-understand options for those who are new. This is a first look and first impression of this new wireless microphone. We take a look at some of the features including the new Rode Capture app. A deeper follow-up and review will be coming soon.

I have the rode ME. I left it on my sweatshirt and it went through the wash, full cycle, I put it in some rice some rice and it’s still working. Definite plus for this wireless mic.

Thanks, I just looked on Amazon and was amazed at the new selections available. I suppose that no one could do a comparison of them all, but to me, the Comica Vimo C3 still has the most bang for the buck, unless there is a huge quality or distance ability.

Hi Sean, I am a regular UK viewer and fan of your tech videos, very informative. I have a hero 10 which I use with a Volta. Would I be able to use this microphone with that setup? Being retired it is a big outlay for me so I want to be sure. Thanks Kevin

Given the RX has a mic built into it, can you use that on its own for run and gun, or do you have to connect a TX?

Looks good, I really wish someone would make a wireless system so I can use a iPhone on a gimbal with a wireless lav mic set up like this. I’m surprised insta360 or DJI haven’t built a lav system into their gimbals yet.

@bikecuberdoggy Жыл бұрын

The dji pocket does that, however it's a standalone camera. There are wireless products out there that do what you need but none from the bigger brands as far as I know.

Are the two audios mixed to one channel or are the two mics into separate channels?

As he mentioned while explaining the app, you are able to configure it either ways.

What is the difference between the 2 3.5mm cables? The TRS to TRS and the TRRS to TRS cable.

@AirPhotography Жыл бұрын

Basically, most cameras use a TRS cable and smart phones use TRRS cable. So like point-and-shoot, gopros DSLR’s all use TRS. The difference between the cable is basically when you look at the end has two rings. Basically stands for tip, ring, and sleeve. Where as a TRRS is simply. Tip, ring, ring, sleeve.

When I see you hook up the RX to the DJI RC controller and it is supposed to work that way. It doesn't do jack! The only way it works even swapping both and running USB-C to USB-C is to turn both on and one is the receiver and one is the microphone. This is crap useless if it only works with the iPhone using only 1.

There is a USB-C port components, and that’s how they recharge. Cables are included, but not a power brick.

Oh, oh, yes, you can't compare the sound quality with your "studio microphone". They are not there yet, by a long shot. But it is moving forward. Then compared to Dji, I don't know how Rode stands up.

Oooofff! $150? I can buy a really nice lavalier plus a cable extension for $35, tops. Is this really 5x better, or worth 5x the cost? Yes, wireless is quite convenient and you can't get hung up in the wifi (😄) But 5x the cost. That's a hard ask. Of course, if my mic budget tops out around $50, I'm pretty sure I'm not R0de's core demographic. Cost aside, it does sound like a pretty functional and thoughtfully designed product.

@AirPhotography Жыл бұрын

You’re right in some scenarios that Lavalier is more than adequate. However, in some scenarios wireless is a must.
