Taking it right up to DJI, Hollyland and others, RØDE has announced its smallest, simplest and sleekest wireless microphone to date – the Wireless Micro.
The WirelessGO was the world’s first compact wireless microphone system, for on-camera audio for creators around the world. Its small size, clip-and-go design, professional sound quality and in-built microphones formed the foundation of the RØDE wireless range, which soon grew to include wireless audio solutions for creators at every level and across every category.
Now, RØDE says the Wireless Micro is revolutionizing smartphone content creation by delivering RØDE’s wireless foundation in its most accessible format yet.
The Wireless Micro is a pocket-sized wireless microphone system tailor-made for smartphone creators. Available in both black and white, and with versions for either USB-C or Lightning devices, the slimline receiver connects directly to a phone with no need for cables, making for a super compact and tidy recording setup. It features two ultra-compact, ultra-lightweight transmitters with integrated clips and magnetic attachments that are incredibly easy to mount on a subject while remaining discreet on camera. The built-in microphones are housed in acoustic chambers with a patent-pending design, purpose-built to capture exceptionally clear and intelligible audio while mitigating wind noise. Combining this innovative design with RØDE’s legacy of pristine wireless audio transmission and intelligent GainAssist technology, the Wireless Micro delivers perfectly balanced audio, every time. Finally, the super sleek charging case is perfectly pocket-sized and delivers two full recharges for up to 21 hours of battery life, all while keeping the system safe and secure.
I have been promised a review unit, and as soon as it arrives I’ll give you a full review.
The RRP at this stage is only stated in USD$ at USD$149 so I am guessing around AUD$229 – AUD$249.
