Everyone like a freebie, and this one today from RØDE should appeal to anyone who uses either the Wireless GO or PRO.
The company has introduced Direct Connect first seen with Wireless Micro, which enables Wireless GO (Gen 3) and Wireless PRO transmitters to pair with iPhones via Bluetooth using the free RØDE Capture app.
This eliminates the need for any additional hardware or accessories, dramatically streamlining mobile setups while preserving the broadcast-quality audio.
Users can continue to record in merged or split modes through the RØDE Capture app; in merged mode, audio from both transmitters is combined into a single, ready-to-publish stereo track whereas in split mode, each transmitter is recorded to a separate channel for greater flexibility in post-production.
In-app output gain control also makes it possible to adjust recording levels on the fly for consistently balanced results.
RØDE has also announced a price drop of 33%for the Wireless GO and 25% for the Wireless PRO.
