Curtis Judd | RODE Wireless GO II: My favorite consumer wireless microphone system @curtisjudd | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
In this episode, we take an in-depth look at the RODE Wireless GO II microphone system. This two-microphone, dual channel receiver system makes it easy to mic up two people and keeps things simple. It also records a backup of the audio on each transmitter in case the wireless signal drops out. Let’s have a look and a listen!
If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses at school.learnlightandsound.com including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. Our latest course is Sound for Live Streaming with the ATEM Mini.
