I liked my Rode Wireless Go II kit, it was so revolutionary. Then when the Wireless Pro came out, I immediately changed to that set. Honestly? A content creator or a semi pro does not need anything else. Such a compact set... It is the only thing that travels with me anywhere. It covers 90-something percent of situations. I have even used it for purposes it was never intended to do, like converting my pair of headphones into a wireless monitor. Great product
I agree. The Wireless Go II was a big upgrade over the original, but the Wireless Pro seems to be a little more future-proof with 32 bit float. It really is a flexible setup that can cover most needs for content creators and videographers, especially those who record in different areas. It's not going to replace my interface and mic in my studio, but will be my go-to for any other video work.
Last time I looked at wireless lav mics that I could afford - they seemed nasally to my ears. I'm looking forward to your review of the Rode set. Mostly I'm curious whether you can coax a sound out of them that compares with a podcast mic. Or is that an unrealistic expectation?
Oddly enough, I don't have much experience listening back to the audio we've recorded with lavs. The one and only time was when we recorded the audio for our brand video. The mic sounded fine on Tara's voice, but the recording was full of noise. It was probably a combination of the Sennheiser wireless kit, the included lav, and the Zoom H-series recorder. It will be interesting to hear how the lavs included with the Wireless Pro sound compared to the Sennheiser and our Sanken COS-11D, as well as my typical setup.
