How To Use Multiple Rode Wireless Go | YouTube Video Making Gear
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 июл 2024
- Lets taking about RUclips video making gear. In this video I want to show you how I record audio from multiple sources using the Rode Wireless Go wireless mic system.
The Rode Wireless Go is an awesome system that is easy to setup, provides great sound, and comes in at a pretty affordable price for what you get. I'm not gonna go into all the technical specs, there are tons of videos for that. I mostly want to get into the details of how to use more than two for them for your video production.

This might be redundant information now but technically you don't need plug in power for the road wireless go as it outputs a mic/line level output. But I totally understand getting an adapter that just works, for anybody else doing this I would recommend the next level down Road has an adapter that doesn't do the phantom power 48v to plug-in power 2-4v conversion it's way cheaper and works with any active microphone that has a battery in it mostly.
The reason the first XLR adapter you got didn't work is the wiring followed the traditional XLR to TRS quarter inch cable wiring where as the microphone is not outputting a balanced signal, it's out putting a stereo signal with a left and a right rather than a tip ring shield, hot cold ground arrangement.
The added benefit of not needing the conversion and I'm pretty sure this adapter will work without phantom power applied, it will decrease the battery drain on the recorder with it off. I don't have those adapters so I would recommend trying it first.
However having the plug-in power adapters allows you to plug-in just about any computer microphone, something I have been looking for but didn't want to spend that much per adapter. I went with the Movo ones instead.
edit: oh yeah and I really think manufacture should start putting the circuit diagrams up for these adapters, it's really hard to tell whether it's going to come out the opposite end in the right combination needed. I was looking for ethernet separators and after purchasing 8x from eBay that were supposed to do that I ended up with splitters. The difference is 8 wires in and 8 wires out onto Jack's, or what I was looking for 8 wires in with 4 to 1 Jack and 4 to the other.
I'm over in West Virginia and did extensive research before buying two months ago, and wondering why I didn't run across your channel when I was doing extensive research.
I think you're the first person who is taking it further than a two channel system and has posted a video about it.
That is until the newly released version 2....
Thanks a lot! You and other commenters have been very helpful! Yeah now Rode releases a new version 😂
@@nextlevelcraig
I've gone looking for information on phantom power and plug in power and the line gets blurred between the two so much that I try if I have the opportunity to help straighten this info out.
it's pretty cool, I can't wait to see some more reviews on it. the transmitters record internally a loop back up although I'm still questioning whether that will be a patent infringement issue In the US..... It's now a dual channel unit with two transmitters to one receiver. Supposedly it's going to be backwards compatible with the original transmitters. Better range and antennas. That kind of revision to wait on before buying and then as soon as you bought one they upgraded it kind of thing. B&H and at least one other RUclipsr have done a review so far.
Although I still think the originals have their usefulness.
Love the colored stickers, I was wondering what a good way to distinguish them would be.
I only have one set right now, hoping to get a good deal on a second one at some point.
Looking forward to the new version with the second gen rode.
Hey imark, what is your recommendation for mic'ng up 2 actors in a dialogue scene?
iMark, could you share the Movo adapter that you used? Any idea what to use for the XLR inputs if you want to use two Go2 transmitters, to one receiver (1 mic on each side of stereo channel)?
Craig this is awesome. Thank you so much for figuring this out, this exactly what I have been looking for!
I was just curious about this! And I'm really grateful that you've added all your experiences into this video! Thank you so much, and please make more like this! I'm just starting out, and hearing someone figuring things out as well makes me feel more confident moving forwards.
Thank you so much! Actually you guys are making me want to continue making videos 😊. So Yeah YOU keep going and I'll keep going!
Craig, awesome! Thank you for your advice and sharing your experience.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! I've had this problem for so long, going to do this ASAP
Hey does this work for live-streaming on RUclips and does the zoom h6 connect to my Mac easily or do I need an additional software to download on my computer.
Handy ! I thought about getting some of these so thanks for the input 👌
Happy to help!
Thank you mate . I needed this !! 👏🏼
Glad it could help!!
Thanks for the video! really helpful, thanks again man
I'm happy to help!!
Craig, I love your chill style. Great video. I have two sets of these mics and I’m always looking for ways to streamline my set up. Thanks for the great tips!
Thank you! I really appreciate the support!
Thank you Thank you Thank you. I have been searching for weeks on how to do this exact thing (multiple people interview, lav mic, etc.). The set up was icing on the cake. I hadn't even thought about how to make it neat, but that was a really good something extra. I will use your links below to support you for this free information.
Wow, that is just fantastic. Thank you!
Life saver! Thanx my man!
Great video, Craig! Thanks for the useful information! All the best as you build your network.
Thank you!!
Good information! Thanks!
Does it have to be the Rode VXLR Pro for this to work, or are there alternatives to use? Not finding any R VXLR for sale at the moment (end of July 2021) and want to use this setup as I have the Zoom H6 from this year along with the Rode Wireless Go that I just ordered.
you do a great job man, thank you!
Thank you for your help!
Great Video Craig. Absolutely awesome lighting. I liked your impromptu style of talking without edits in between, it feels natural. Thank for the information about Rode Go, I am thinking of purchasing one.
Wow thanks a lot! I'm still trying to get the hang of this RUclips thing 😂
Appreciate the info! What kind of camera are you using for this video ???
I need that quality lol
Thank you, great, helpful video!
Thanks for the video.
Great video! Helps a lot!
Excellent tutorial and cool relaxed presentation Craig! Love it! I am a filmmaker and photographer freelancer of 20 years and this video was on point! Cheers, buddy
Awesome, thank you!
Such a helpful video, thanks!
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!
What’s your opinion on using two sets of wireless go 2 and the rode SC11 cable?
Thank you so much for making this video
Have you tried using two sets of wireless Go II - six units, and is there any noise issues?
Hi!
How did you deal with the different mics not syncing up?
I mean, if you connect 2 TX to each Rhode Wireless Go RX, but the person talking to the TX paired with the RX 1, algo gets into de TX paired with the RX 2, their voice is coming duplicated. Did you experience it? Is it possible to synch the two RX?
Thanks!
Hi Craig
I found this while searching for something similar:
I'll film an event on _two_ cameras, one a borrowed Sony video camera and the other my Fujifilm X-T5.
I'm new to this, especially with external microphones.
Both cameras have a set of Røde Wireless Go II. Will I be able to use both sets at the same time, with one receiver on each camera, or will there be problems with the signals?
Thank you in advance for any information on this :-)
Ive been looking for this answer for like an hour! Thank youuuu
thank you for this video! i was down that road with my Xenyx x1222USb, getting nothing but slight interferences from the wireless mics. the adapters solved it.
now i wonder... as every rode wireless go II (by now as well as the wireless ME) receiver can be connected to TWO transmitters, it should work out fine to have 3 receivers (incl 3 VXLR+ adaptors each) connected to a mixer/interface, each being connected to two transmitters? i need to somehow have 6 ppl (all sitting next to each other at a table) recorded in OBS.
Awesome tip! Great video! Just subscribed.
Awesome! Thank you!
Awsome thanks!
Also can use this adapter.to connect my rodes in the large panel with the other mics n instruments in.my church? Would be good for kids plays n shows...pls let me know. Ty
Love this
This was really helpful thanks !!!
You are very welcome! Glad I could help!
Amazing quality content man, gotta a new sub from Brazil! Keep going with the vids!
Thank you man! Working on the next one now 👍😃
Great video. The first I could find on using multiple Wireless Go's. I just got all the stuff for the setup you were having problems with. Appreciate you putting this out there as I assume I will have trouble too. Thanks Craig!
I couldn't find anything either, so once i figured it out I thought a video my help others in my situation. I'm so glad to be of help to everyone!
@@nextlevelcraig I tested my setup tonight with just the regular adapters, and didn't have any problems, but need to test in a real life scenario. Either way, super glad to have found your video, and look forward to see what else you create. Have a great rest of the week!
@@CrispyPelican That's great! Hopefully you won't have the issue I had. I would touch the connector and hear noise interference. Then they would work intermittently. Sucked cuz I was on a job! Best of luck to you! You have a great week too!
Dude thank you for this video, I was thinking of a similar application such as a wedding and needing to mic the bride groom and officiant, but the rodes are currently only 2 so this is very helpful thank you for sharing, that was a lot of work you did!
When you hooked up 4 transmitters was that for 8 mics? Or 1 transmitter per mic? Asking because rose has them available with 2 mics. I would imagine with the 1 transmitter powering 2 mics the lines wouldn’t be split in post production
Thank you for helping me. Hello from Chicago Illinois 💙💙💚💚💛💛
Hi Craig,
Have tried this identical setup several times and have never had any luck.
They always cut out and it leaves 90% of the audio unusable. However, whenever I use 1 Wireless Go on its own it will always work absolutely fine.
I'm likely going to invest in Sennheiser mics to avoid this problem, but before I make that investment I'd love to find a way of making this setup work for me!
a maryland dude! we're in La Plata - good video - great quality and informative. thanks!
Thanks for this! All of your hard work made it easier for us looking for that solution...
You're welcome! I'm glad the info is so useful to so many people!
Thank you for giving such a clear explanation on the phantom power for my shoot tomorrow. Great job!!!
You're welcome! Good luck on the shoot!
Thank you so much for this! There's really not a whole lot online about using the GO system with external audio recorders.
I deemed it unusable as I was getting so much noise & distortion when using the mics on live music session shoots.
Now knowing about the adaptor, plugin power, 12v phantom etc I once again feel like the Wireless Go was actually worth investing in. Thank-you 🙌
I need to do some more testing because I have people telling I am wrong about needing plug-in power. I had the same issue as you and now it looks like I need to dig into what was the actual cause.
Thank you for this 🙏🏼
You're so welcome!
Can you use say 3 transmitters to one receiver , ie 3 camera sources
Great information, thank youuuuuuuu
You're welcome! Glad I could help!
Great testimonial, I've got a similar type of project coming up where I've needed two mics also! So, went with Two Wireless Go systems again.
Very cool!
Hi, thanks so much, quick question: do you think if you hot 2 more $5 splitters, plugged those 2 into the original splitter, then plugged the 4 transmitters in there, that would work?
I don't know for sure, but I would be really surprised if it worked. If it did I bet the sound would be terrible, but I am no expert. Sorry.
Did you have any issues with the transmitters or receivers interfering with each other?
Great Vid! Save me a bunch of time and money. Thanks for the help!
No problem 👍
nice tip! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Craig! Hey Man this is very useful video, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
are you gonna update this video with the Rode wireless 2? since you get 2 mics, how would this work with 4
Whats up craig was wondering how much you think it would cost for this setup (4 mics, adapters, sound recorder)
Man I'm so glad I found this channel. Thank you!
Welcome! Thank you for your support!
Nice solution!
Excellent explanation. I ended up with an almost identical setup although I used the original Rode 3.5 to xlr adaptor. Never had any issues with the zoom not picking it up or having any distortion. I plug all 4 mics into the zoom and then feed a line out into the Atem mini. Nice simple live audio setup.
Awesome! Maybe I just had cheap XLR adapters.
@@nextlevelcraig yeah. You can manually turn off phantom on the H6 and amend voltage as well I think. Great video again buddy! One positive of this setup (which is a happy accident I found out on a job last night) you can easily cut individual mics during a live broadcast by just turning the inputs off. Really helps when people are messing with papers during someone else talking haha.
@@artistsimpression That's a great idea! I reached out to Rode for more clarification, lets hope they get back to me. LOL
Such a kind vibe comes from the man, subscribed just case of that 😅😅
This is one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me! Thank you 🙏🏾
Thanks man ! I’m hitting the subscribe button
Sweet! Thank you for watching!
thank you for this video
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Mr. Kilgore, thank you for sharing this info! Very helpful
My pleasure!
_Amazing video Craig!_
Glad you enjoyed it!
Saw your comment over on Zack's video.
Great video... keep at it!
Thank you!!
who's zack?
@@81springbrook96 Zack Arias.
i got a new subscriber from brazil! please keep with great job!
Thank you! I will make another video soon!
That lighting is incredible!
Thank you!!
nice Craig, very detail video. i would like to know did you facing any Disturbance while connecting those rode? coz i may need to record 3 people interview and i'm planning to get your builds for that
From what I understand there can be issues if the receivers are too close together, but I have not tested this.
Great video did you cover the possibility of "noise bleed" when doing a 2-shot dialogue scene?
That cheese plate idea really cleans the whole mess up. Thank you!
You're welcome! 😀
Hey Craig what is the split wire called you used for two mics? I dont think I'll be needing the zoom h6
Its just a basic audio splitter. Any one will do really. www.amazon.com/3-5mm-splitter/s?k=3.5mm+splitter
Had to watch it again to get the name of the step-down adapters. Man, you are the best. Thank you, thank you. It's Friday, I can't get help from my usual source. Now I know what to order and it'll be her Monday!! Life's good.
Glad it was helpful!
Craig... Thank you! Great info.
Glad it was helpful!
great job
This vid is saving my ass now with ongoing project! Thanks Craig for sharing good tips. Now I know how to connect multiple Rode wireless go with Zoom H6, but what about the sound quality? Any issue like losing signal stuff while using 4 Rode wireless go at a location?
I'm glad I could help somewhat! I hear that having the receivers too close to each other could pose some issues. I have been wanting to test it, but I haven't gotten around to doing it yet.
Dude just got a zv-1 and researching the rode wireless for vlogging and etc ... good stuff u did subbed
Awesome! Thank you!
I was curious have you ever gotten any wireless connectivity issues with the rode wireless go? I have 1 which is fine but I was worried if you get like 4 of these if they would have interference at all especially since they are on 2.4 Ghz frequencies.
I have not had any issues just yet, but I have only used all four of them together maybe two or three times now.
Will this setup work with the Zoom H8?
You're the best!!!
Very helpful video, thanks! A few more shots of you setting it all up would’ve made it great 🙂
Does the Zoom have a line out? Than you could use it as a “mic” to a 5th Rode WG to route audio to the camera for easy syncing in post 😄
Thank you! I appreciate that. I made a follow up video that shows the setup more. It does have a 3.5 line out that your could use that way.
This was a great 👍🏽 video. Nice strong voice and very well spoken. Great information. I would definitely follow to see more of your work. I can tell that you are normally the one behind the camera ...the creator. I want to see you take this video to the Next Level and I mean flawless. I want to see you in front of the camera and OWN it because you built it. Do the research and script everything you do. The hardest thing which takes some getting use to is talking to us viewers with zero interaction from us because we look like a camera lens but it can only get better because the content is of value and you are being yourself. This is the reason you have all this positive comments. Keep up the great work. 👍🏽✌🏽
Wow thanks! You're right, I am usually behind the camera. It will take me some practice and getting used to being in front of the camera for my videos to reach the next level. I'm gonna do my best man. Thanks for the support and encouragement!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Helpful video! Keep uploading! Would love to see more content from you
Thank you so much! I appreciate it! I'm working on getting motivated to do so!
Craig Kilgore I feel you man. I’ve had the same problem.
Could you point me in the right direction to what type of splitter to use when just using just two Rode Wireless Go's
Great video🔥🔥
Thanks! 😃
Craig ..... Useful information. I watched all 9:50 of it. Would have helped a bit to see the hardware setup. The cheese plate is new concept for me. Not sure how you got from the 4 receivers into the recording device. Would love to see this. I may want to follow your same "hook up". Thanks! Will talk to you in the next Zoom!
Thank you bro! I included a few shots but I guess I should have showed me hooking it up. I would be happy to show you the steps in our next zoom meeting!
@JD JD Oh wow! Thank you! 😊
Sir, how bout multiple splits to one camera? Good bad maybe? Thank you
Nice job Craig. I had the same issue when I had 2 set of rode wireless Go. I did not want to use tbe 3.5mminput on my Zoom f4 so I tried 2 out of thf 4 XLR inputs and all I got was load of hiss and very low quality audio.like you after a lot of research I tried 2 Rode VXLR adapters and they work like a dream. Thank for share great job bro.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
What about mic bleed? Do you get mic bleed if the 6 mic users are in the same room?
Hi Craig what mixer would you use to record 6 . I have 6 comica xd lavalier mics. Im really stuck 🤦🏾♂️
I'm not really an audio expert. There are lots of 6 track recorders out there, if that's what you need. What are you stuck on?
What's good I know this video is old but in the middle of the XLR ports is a 1/4" jack on all 4 of them you could have got a 1/4 headphone adapter for cheap to get it done.. I don't know if anyone mentioned that to you... I like how you mounted everything on the cheese plate fire...
Was so frustrated trying to figure out why my Rode Wireless Go didn't work with my Zoom H6 but this video totally cleared things up. Thank you so much Craig!
You're welcome! I am being told however that the real issue is interference, I need to do some testing.
Hell yeah Craig!
This is just the sort of thing I was looking for advice on, and unlike about 90% of the tech review videos I could've watched the background info without the artifice people often exude with that.
If anything all I could constructively comment is that you could put more confident a call to action, and taking a bit more time but splicing together when you need to take a bit of a pause in post, as this really is some good honest info.
I am finding those Rhode Gos pulling up scarce these days as well as the zoom goin' upabout 80% so you were really on it!
Thank you, I'm working on it!
Aren’t you able to turn off phantom power completely on your Zoom? Or does it need the power just in a smaller voltage? Or does it not need the phantom power at all? Because if that’s the case there’s an option to turn off phantom power on the zoom. At least on the zoom h4n it is. Not sure about your model the zoom h6.
I was wrong, the Wireless Go doesn't need any additional power. But yes I can turn off Phantom Power .
Great video! Do you have footage from the interview I would love to hear the sound quality for 4 people talking at once with the wireless go. Great to hear someone from Maryland I'm from Maryland also!
Maybe I explained it wrong, but for that day I didn't get it working. That's what sent me on my research journey to find a solution.
@@nextlevelcraig ok gotcha! Well please whenever you get a chance drop a video of the sound and setup 🙏🏾💯
@@TheKingdomForum Sure thing!!
I'm glad I bumped into this video because there is an upcoming project that requires me to use multiple Rode wireless go devices. I would have never figured it out in time. great save and great video.
Thanks you! Be careful though, from what I understand there can be interference issues if the receivers are too close together, but I have not tested this.
Gracias carnal
please what's your export settings for this video
what is the splitter to be able to bring two wireless go receivers into one camera?
Rode makes one bit.ly/2Mp96ID But there are several others out there
Bro. Fucking awesome. THIS is EXACTLY what I needed to find. You rock! You just earned my sub. Going to watch your next vid where you rig it all up. Thanks a bunch!
Thank you bro! I really appreciate your encouragement!
I remember buying my first sennheisers back in the day and it cost me about $900 for which is one pack in receiver. But now today I can have a four mic set up for under $400 that is just insane
