Rode wireless ii works great with my hero 7; I am now experiencing audio delay from the rode wireless and gopro combo when using with Atem mini pro. Adding 06/10/22 using the mic independant (not attached to camera just next to them) into the wireless and into mic 1 port on the Atem Mini - no delay, and it sound great.

Not all mics have correctly work with mine, I gotten a high pitch sound, I narrowed down to a olympus working correctly, while the rode micro fails to work.

Tim, I can't thank you enough for this video! I do have a few questions and I wonder if you'd be kind enough to run another test. The context is that I've tried this with the Hero7 Black and it doesn't work, if this works with the Hero 8 I will upgrade. Test 1: Can you test exactly what you did with one change? The change is to remove the internal battery, plug a USB power bank into the USB-C port on the media mod. Will it still work properly? Test 2 requires a GoPro Smart Remote, which you may not have. Will Test 2 work with starting the recording and stopping the recording with the GoPro Smart Remote. Why am I asking? Test 1 doesn't work with the GoPro 3.5mm adapter since it doesn't actually pass through power other than to charge the battery, so you must have a battery in the GoPro to work....but in my application, if you have a battery in the GoPro it will overheat! Test 2 has an intermittent problem in my Hero7 setup and I think there is Wifi interference between the Rode Wireless Go and the GoPro. So why not simply turn Wifi off on the GoPro? Because I need to use the Smart Remote to start and stop both cameras, one of which is out of reach. Anyway, I thought this might be of interest to you and your viewers since you've posted this informative video.

if i am not using the gopro media mod case BUT a gopro 3.5mm mic adapter. should the rode wireless go set to powered mic still?

@shouldigetit 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for this video Tim! How is the battery life of the GoPro when using the media mod? Have you used it in a car? I'm worried about it overheating

@TimSimpson 3 жыл бұрын

Heya - I would say that the battery live is great give what it can do, however I would keep a couple of extra batteries on hand. Heat management is always the enemy in small powerful devices. in the car - simple keep the battery door open if viable. but generally not found it to be a problem. The same rules apply for all camreas - the higher the framerate, resolution and other features and running, the more heat is going to be generated and the faster you'll draw the battery, so tune the camera for the job at hand.

Do you have the wireless go on minimum gain? That helps a lot. Or do you mean the mic in the mod?
