  • Rode VideoMic Me-L Review Test and Comparison To The Shure MV88 iOS Lightning Microphone
    Good: The microphone sounds good which is the main thing you want out of any mic.
    Good: The Mic ME-L comes with a deadcat wind muff so you don't have to buy one separately.
    Good: The Rode Mic ME-L is inexpensive as far as quality mics are concerned. At $79.99 its priced to be affordable to all iPhone and iPad users.
    Bad: The levels on the mic are really quite low and if you are recording with an app that doesn't allow you to adjust the gain you will have to raise the levels in post when editing.
    Bad: You need that wind muff on the mic at all times because even the slightest wind noise without it is amplified and will ruin your audio.

    Surprisingly there aren't many videos comparing these two. Thanks for helping me make my decision! Going with the rode even if the MV88 sounds better and has a smaller form factor. The price difference is way too high here in Canada to justify the slight improvements.

    Both great mics. Seems like the rode picks up what it’s pointing directly at which I’ve loved about shotgun mics. The Shure sure does have a better audio quality though. I do a lot of on the go filming so I’m leaning toward the Shure due to its smaller profile, and as you said, it’s not as obvious. New sub

      Yeah it seems like everyone in these comments is praising the Shure even though you can hear way more of the room with it, it does seem to be the louder of the two. As you point out the Rode seems much cleaner, albeit quieter. The other thing that this review doesn’t touch on is that the Shure has an app that I believe let’s you modify the pick-up pattern, so I wonder if that might make a difference here. Kind of a tough call as they have different unique features and price points. For 130-150 you get the Shure which is smaller and louder with more directional adjustments, but no headphone monitor option. It also comes with a carrying case which is kinda nice. Then for $80 you get the Rode which seems cleaner but quieter, no directional adjustments but you do get headphone monitoring. It also comes with the wind screen when Shure charges an extra 40 for theirs (though it does come with a pop filter). I really wish I knew more about the Shure app as that might help in determining which is the better value.

    Thanks for posting, just what I needed. I'm torn between the Rode Me-l and the Shure MV88. I just got a iPhone 11 and need a good directional mic that can best catch sound from 8-15 feet away. Looks from the reviews I've seen that the Rode would be best strictly for longer distance than the Shure. Up close and personal, either mic will do just fine. Pls share your experience with catching sound from the middle distance.

  • @TheGeoDaddy
    @TheGeoDaddy 4 года назад +1

    Bought the Shure MV88 + and it issue wasn’t the mic but the gimbal... if you’re are going for quality audio you are probable going for quality camera movement.. too!
    The Osmo Mobile 2 was NOT strong enough to tolerate the cable to the mic destabilizing the smartphone camera...
    The Zhiyun Smooth has motors strong enough to attach the lighting cable and keep the camera moving smoothly.
    Bottomline: the mic sure could use a lighter weight and/or more flexible connection cable to allow the camera to be “gimbled”

    • @TodayIFeelLike
      @TodayIFeelLike  4 года назад

      That's really interesting I do have to say that when I use a gimbal generally I'm shooting b-roll or if I'm recording audio I usually record my audio separately because there's so many issues with gimbals and balancing and the weight I just find it much easier to record my audio separately and sync it later in post. I know that's not a option for everyone or even the best solution for everyone but it seems to be what causes me the least amount of headache. The one exception to this is when I'm vlogging with my osmo pocket then I hook up a little microphone but that's about it. Thank you for watching and for the comment and please subscribe.

    • @TheGeoDaddy
      @TheGeoDaddy 4 года назад +1

      Agree! If I really want clean audio I would not use anything on smartphone/gimbal/mic for anything but a baseline to sync to...
      I’d record with lavs on it Zoom H6 and sync.
      And - I having got my iPhone 11 yet - but - as good as these camera/phones are getting I’m still thinking of them as B-Roll and BTS and shoot primary on my Nikon Z6 system...
      But I’m thinking the smartphone on a gimbal is going to become far more common as the aesthetic of RUclips is ever smoother motion to match everyone else...

    @sethcashman1011 4 года назад +2

    Excellent video! I kind of wish I had seen it before purchasing the Shure, though I do like the way that mic sounds here. Questions: 1) Does the MV88 work for video (iPhone or Filmic) if you don't use the Motiv app? 2) I didn't quite get why the phone has to be in Airplane mode. Please explain. 3) Can you get true stereo imaging with the Shure? When it's plugged in and turned forward, L and R are either on the top or the bottom, respectively, rather than left and right. How the heck does that work for stereo sound? Thanks! (I'm new to all of this, obviously...)

    • @TodayIFeelLike
      @TodayIFeelLike  4 года назад +2

      1) Yes the Shure MV88 works in any video app. And once you set the settings in the Shure app it retains the settings and takes it over into the Camera app or FiLMiC Pro or any other camera app that you have when you’re operating your phone with that microphone.
      2) The reason why your phone needs to be in airplane mode when using this mic is because it’s not shielded and if you get a phone call or a text message or some other sort of notification coming in you get that interference noise that Dirca Dirca noise. The new MV88+ fixed that problem so you don’t have to put it in airplane mode anymore and you can actually use it when you’re live streaming.
      3) Yes you get true stereo and part of that is because not only does the microphone swivel but it also rotates. So the microphone capsule actually rotates.
      This is a fantastic microphone it has been one of my favorites for a long time I’ve had it for years I think the new one is going to be great too I’m hoping to get one of those in the next week or so so I can review it and compare it and do some videos with it and other microphones so I don’t think you can go wrong with it. If you don’t need it for live streaming I think you’re good to go. You just have to make sure when you use it you put your phone in airplane mode so that you don’t get any of that interference noise.

    Have you used the RODE mic outside? I’m curious to see how well it does against blocking the sound of wind.

    • @TodayIFeelLike
      @TodayIFeelLike  5 лет назад +1

      The Rode mic does really well blocking the wind when you use a dead cat on the mic if you do not have a dead cat on the mic it’s basically useless indoors or outdoors.

    Why did you not remove the dead cat wind shield (which is for outdoor recording) on the Rode before you tested the mic? The comparison is therefore "unfair" between the 2 mics.

    @joshuamuheim8900 4 года назад +1

    Hey there
    Thanks a lot for this review! As this is a directional microphone, I'm wondering whether it would work for my specific use case?
    I'm busking on the streets, and while I'm having a "real" portable PA with both microphone and guitar input, I'd sometimes like to not carry around all that stuff and still be able to amplify both my voice and my guitar.
    I have an iPhone holder that I can attach to the front of my acoustic guitar, so I can look at my iPhone's screen while playing. I thought: why not just use my microphone to pick up both the guitar and my voice, and connect a little Bluetooth speaker to amplify? While wearing headphones, this works perfectly (sound quality isn't great, but enough for my purpose). But as soon as I connect the speaker, I get terrible feedback issues (no surpise here).
    So - do you think using a directional microphone like the RØDE VideoMic Me (and placing the speaker in front of myself, facing to the audience), I would get a better result?
    Maybe you could give it a try? I would love to hear your opinion.
    Thank you!

    • @TodayIFeelLike
      @TodayIFeelLike  4 года назад

      You can try but I think you might be better off with the Shure MV88+ you can adjust the pick up pattern and the sensitivity of the mic and is properly shielded designed for mobile livestreaming so you shouldn't have those interference issues.

    This is probably a stupid question, but I take it you cant do this setup if you are using the iPhone 11 Pro and shooting ultra wide correct?

Do you think that would be a good setup for a 2 person podcast or is it better going with a regular tripod and completely different setup? Any advice would help. Thanks.
