Rode Stereo Videomic
Rode Stereo Videomic When it comes to capturing superior audio when doing video recording – be it out in the open, and closed set, or a natural enclosure – nothing compares to Rode microphones.
Rode's long-standing reputation with professional and independent film-makers alike is not unfounded. From condenser to shotgun array microphones, Rode bings decades of experience and user input to the table in letting you capture crystal clear audio for you video productions.
A Rode Stereo Videomic has a lab-designed XY configuration, which allows you to record ambient sound while filming. No longer will you have to have your scenes overdubbed because the sound is too quiet. Nor will you have to worry about filming your subject matter right up close to your camera's built-in mic (or worse, investing in a boom and hiring someone in hopes of them having steady arms). Now you can attach a Rode Stereo Videomic and start filming in the studio, outdoors, or wherever you want – without a worrying about if you “got that” on the audio track.
Rode Videomicrophones also have incredible noise reduction to filter out background sounds. This means that a cafe scene will pick up dialogue from your actors rather than the espresso machine gurgling next to them. You'll be able to get that perfect sequence of that flock of seagulls by the beach without wishing that the camera's mic hadn't given you production nightmares by picking up the garbage scow bellowing in the background while you're burning up valuable tape.
Rode Videomicrophones also come in a wide variety of flavors. While many are cold shoe mounted to your video camera, Rode also makes stereo video microphones for operation on remote stands and boom arms for crowded spaces or areas where it would be hard to capture audio with just the camera mic.
Nothing beats the durability of a Rode Stereo Videomic. With a built-in anti-shoc system, the Rode Stereo Videomic will not only resist an accidental tumble, but it won't pick up the rumbling, buzzing, hissing, and jarring sounds that other mics are prone to when experiencing external physical forces. This means that you can take a Rode Stereo Videomic to cover a storm with high-speed winds, record audio while in the thick of a crowd, or run through the woods to capture audio for your documentary without losing any of it during jostling or the occasional bump.
Remember, not everything can be fixed in post production, and Rode knows this. You want to get your audio done in one take, without the hassle of retakes or dubbing later on down the line, when it's too late. Get it done right. Get done with the superior design and results from a Rode Stereo Videomic.
