RODE's New Wireless System - How 'Pro' is the Wireless PRO?

In this episode we have a look at and a listen to RODE’s new Wireless Pro microphone system! This new addition to the RODE wireless ecosystem includes a dual-channel receiver and two transmitters with both inbuilt mics and RODE Lavalier II microphones. Major features include 32-bit float recording, an onboard timecode system, GainAssist technology, and the ability to record directly to the transmitters. In this video we walk through the Wireless Pro’s feature set, listen to some sound quality samples, and test out its 32-bit recording capability. Let’s take a closer look!
