    Bro you just saved me $300 cause my charging port on my Pro + got bad and I felt I needed to buy a whole new mic only for you to show me the AA battery trick at 3:35 and I tried it and it worked. Now I can go back to using my Old Microphone. Thanks, bro, you are a lifesaver!

  • @vegetablepolice
    @vegetablepolice 6 лет назад +1

    I've been on the fence about this mic. I just use the Mic J 044 plugged into my G85, it sounds decent. Do you think think the Rode plus would be much of an upgrade? Or possibly sound worse since it will be a few feet away from my mouth for vlogs?
    Next time you talk to a Panasonic rep, ask them to lower their DB in a firmware update to at least -20. Fuji did it ;)

  • @TwoBitDaVinci
    @TwoBitDaVinci 6 лет назад +2

    Hey Max, I know you were wishing for a +10dB boost. What if you used +20dB, and then used the -10dB safety track? Would that be kind of the same thing? I know what you mean about the Panasonic camera only going down to -12; it's usually not enough

    Since you've mentioned the GH5 seperately, I'm really curious which microphone you would recommend. Right now I have the Rode videomic GO but the audio has a humming sound.

    I got mine few weeks ago and used it already on a few shoots, and the auto on/off is really good and worth upgrading for me. The only con for me is the size, when packing it in the backpack takes almost twice as much space as the vmp v1, so I was thinking of replacing the foam windscreen with the one from the v1 or v2 with the rycote (which is a bit bigger than the v1 but still smaller than the vmp+)

      The thing is that your right channel record 10db above the left one.. after you can choose the one that is better for you because both will record in mono channel and after you can edit. Obviously if you choose to shot 10db lower the right channel will record in flat mode.. per exemple

    Hi Max, I'd like your opinion please. I'm thinking of using the Rode Videomic Pro Plus in a rig to act as an external mic for a GoPro camera and also for a Sony RX100-M4. When using the GoPro camera, I will connect it directly using the 3.5 mm cable, and when using the Sony, which does not have an input, I will connect the Rode Pro Plus to my Tascam DR-44WL as an external mic and sync the audio and video in post using Final Cut 10.3.3. The material being recorded will be acoustic guitar and vocals. What do you think of this set up? The Videopro plus is a little large and I was considering the Rode Videomicro except I really want the best quality. For my purposes, would you go with the Plus or go with the older version of Pro since it's a little smaller? Thanks for your opinion.
