Rode GO II Dual Channel Wireless Microphone System
The Wireless GO II is a compact wireless microphone system that operates in the 2.4GHz spectrum. The kit includes two transmitters with an internal microphone and a dual-channel receiver with 3.5mm TRS output. The transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) units include a USB Type-C port used for charging purposes and to connect to a computer for future firmware updates. The receiver can also be used as an interface by connecting it to any computer and recording the audio. They are also compatible with USB-C for Android and Apple products. The Wireless GO II takes the versatility of the original to new heights.
Connectivity
The Wireless GO II features a 3.5mm analog TRS output for plugging into cameras, plus a digital audio output via USB-C for plugging into smartphones, tablets, and even computers. This universal compatibility with any device makes the Wireless GO II extremely versatile, ideal for everyone from filmmakers to YouTubers to business professionals.
On-Board Recording
Another groundbreaking feature is its onboard recording capability. The Wireless GO II can record over 24 hours of audio directly to each transmitter (without the need for an SD card), ensuring a backup recording is always available in post-production in case of transmission dropouts and other audio issues. This feature is activated via Rode Central, an app that gives users access to firmware updates and advanced features for the Wireless GO II.
Switch Between Mono and Stereo Modes
Other key features of the Wireless GO II include the ability to switch between mono and stereo modes, allowing users to record each transmitter separately or combine the two for ultimate flexibility in post-production, a mute button, in-built rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that last up to 7 hours, and more.
Ultra-Compact Wireless Audio
The Wireless GO II offers the same pocket-sized form factor as the original. The receiver weighs just 32g and the transmitters weigh just 31g, with each measuring less than a matchbox, taking up virtually no space in a camera kit bag, backpack, handbag or briefcase. The transmitters and receiver feature the same unique clip design as the original, which make them incredibly easy to clip onto talent and mount onto a DSLR or mirrorless camera, mobile camera set-up, boom pole, or cold shoe accessory. This also means the extensive range of Wireless GO accessories work with the Wireless GO II, including the Interview GO and MagClip GO.
Seamless Connectivity
The Wireless GO II has been designed to deliver professional sound while being incredibly simple to use. Out of the box, the two transmitters come auto-paired to the receiver and will remember which channel they’ve been assigned to in the future, ensuring a seamless setup process every time.
Series IV 2.4GHz Digital Transmission
The system utilizes Rode’s all-new Series IV 2.4GHz digital transmission with 128-bit encryption, which delivers an extended range of up to 200m (line of sight) and is optimized for operation in areas with a high level of RF activity, including dense urban environments, shopping malls, universities, convention centers, and offices. The internal antenna has been redesigned to ensure an extremely stable connection, and with onboard recording providing a backup of all audio, users never have to worry about dropouts again.
In-Built Omnidirectional Condenser Capsule
Each transmitter features a high-quality in-built omnidirectional condenser capsule for completely wireless recording, plus a 3.5mm TRS input for plugging in a Lavalier microphone, such as the Rode Lavalier GO. The Wireless GO II also comes with three furry windshields, which incorporate an innovative new twist-to-lock design for recording in windy conditions, ensuring crystal-clear, professional sound in any situation.
