    • BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Style: Filmmaker System
BEEP! I have two sets of these units and there is a high pitch beep in the recorded file. It seems to happen when the batteries get to the last bar (30 percent). If it's caused by this, why would Rode engineer it like that. It's an audio device so why would it destroy the audio once the batteries start getting low??? ... show more

    • Great unit... not so great support.
Style: Filmmaker System
I did some reading and this looks like the least expensive somewhat professional solution out there. After this, they get really really expensive. So, does it work? Yes, quite well. The shortcomings are not with the product so much as the support. The instructions are really terrible, you know when they try to put 16 languages all on one big sheet... it's like that. It's called a quickstart guide. This is also the only documentation available from the Rode website. But, it's a great product, so I will impart what I have learned: 1. To manually change a channel: Power up both units. Open battery door on RX, press red sync button, press channel button on front of unit to desired channel. Open battery door on TX and press red sync button. It should change to the channel you selected on the RX. You need to do this fairly quickly, the RX times out, if I recall. You should not have to do this if it actually seeks a clear channel, but here is how to do it manually. It bad you can't scan through the channels more easily. 2. Rode support specifically told me that NiMH batteries work fine in these units. Any AA battery should work. I wondered about this because NiMH batteries have a slightly lower voltage. 3. Rode makes a lav microphone with a detachable cord and swappable ends. This isn't it. The microphone end and connector end are molded on the cable. So for goodness sake, be careful! 4. I do get intermittent digital noise, but very low, less than -50 dB... but if you crank up the gain on a quiet spot, it's there. If your editing software is any good, you can use a audio gate function and make it go away without impacting your recording. I think, to a degree, you sign up for this when you go wireless. If you want perfect audio, you need cable and a good wired microphone. ... show more

    • BEWARE: Defective Sets Are Out There!
Style: Filmmaker System
I dont normally leave bad reviews, but this system truly deserves one. I purchased this with high hopes, however they were dashed: 1) By the fact that something in this mic produces an obnoxious buzzing sound, regardless or mic or camera settings, and in every environment I have used it in. 2) It just randomly turns itself off, WHILE YOU'RE USING IT. This is causing me a major headache as I now have to reshoot several scenes for a video I'm making. I understand that for whatever reason RODE products are fairly well regarded, maybe they're overall great except for the lemons which get through here and there. Total waste of $400, sending it back. ... show more

    • great sound for interviews with easy-to-use digital wireless kit
Style: Filmmaker System
Fantastic solution for recording video interviews with semi-pro camcorders and DSLRs. Yes, it's about 4x the price of the cheapest solution, but also about 4x better in sound quality, and much easier to use than more expensive pro systems. Dead-simple brainless hookup -- "it just works" (after you figure out how to put the batteries in) without any pairing magic or channel selection issues. Unlike other solutions below this price point, this is a *digital* transmission, which translates to a lower noise floor -- less hum, hiss, dropouts, and spurious noise than with analog transmission. I tried the Movo kit, and the level of hiss and hum compared to the Rode was unacceptable. Didn't try the Azden kit, I jumped straight to the Rode after watching a youtube head-to-head comparison review. The lavalier (lapel) mic sounds fantastic -- rich bass for nice chest tone, and picks up pleasant high-end sibilance from collar region. Includes spring-loaded pin mount, foam cover, and outdoor "dead mouse" wind sock. No instructions on how to attach the pin or covers to the mic cord, but given a diagram of the "finished" look you can puzzle out how to do it. Yes, the ultra-thin lightweight cord from the mic to the transmitter is fragile, but that also makes it easy to thread through clothing and minimizes cable rubbing noise. Love the positive-lock screw-in 1/8" mini-plug connectors -- you don't *have* to screw them in, but that avoids problems with talent or camera operators accidentally pulling out plugs and having no audio. Love the status display on the receiver -- shows battery level of *both* units, and indicates when talent unit is muted or shut off. Weight is heavier than cheaper units, but still fine to mount on camcorders or DSLRs (I measured 0.41 lbs for each unit). For use with a SONY 4K handycam and its recessed multi-interface shoe, I needed more room for my fingers to fit underneath the receiver, so I used a cold shoe adapter JJC MSA-MIS Standard Cold Shoe Adapter Converter for Sony Multi Interface Shoe Camcorder (Black) to gain an extra inch of height. There are internal level settings (0, 10db, 20db) on transmitter and receiver -- I like that, this setting is rarely changed (default is 0db on both and works fine) and there's no risk of accidentally hitting an external switch. On the negative side, the manual is super-dense (you'll need a magnifying glass) and basically useless, and Rode is the WORST at designing battery compartments. I had to search for a youtube video on how to put in the batteries!! You push in a plastic button on the back and then *slide* the *larger* piece to open -- very non-intuitive. Inside, the battery springs are *crazy* tight, if you don't have long fingernails you will need a small tool like a mini-screwdriver to pry out used batteries. Rode suggests Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries for max life; but just be disciplined about shutting off units right after an interview and they seem to last a long time. Pros who want more channel options and XLR connectors and level/tone controls have lots of options starting at about 2x the price of this unit, but for hobbyists and semi-pros who want great wireless sound quality from a single mic without any fuss, this really is the best solution. ... show more

    • Returning due to shielding interference in microphone.
Style: Filmmaker System
Overall the system works great under perfect circumstances. However, there is a horrible wire shielding interference sound when the microphone cord gets close to itself. This makes the output audio useless unless you make sure the mic cable is completely stretched out during use. Good RX and TX but the microphone is a deal breaker. When the wire is stretched out completely audio is great but when I have it fed through my shirt and I move around it just produces horrible interference feedback from the wire. Not the sound of a shirt rubbing against it but actual shielding interference. The exact problem is described at around 10:45 of this review video by someone else: EIDT: Amazon won't show the YouTube link. The video is titled "RodeLink Wireless Filmmakers Kit Review" by DSLR Video Shooter on YouTube. EDIT 2: I contacted Rode about the issue and they sent a replacement microphone. ... show more
