RØDE has released a next-generation update to the best-selling VideoMicro on-camera shotgun microphone.
The VideoMicro II takes everything that made the original such a success and introduces several new features for enhanced performance.
Designed and made in RØDE’s state-of-the-art facilities in Sydney, key features include:
* Professional-grade on-camera shotgun microphone
* Supercardioid polar pattern for highly directional audio capture
* Innovative HELIX™ isolation mount system for superior protection from knocks, bumps and handling noise
RØDE CEO Damien Wilson says “The VideoMicro was groundbreaking when it was released almost a decade ago. Never before had creators been able to record crystal-clear audio with a microphone as compact, lightweight and easy to use. It has since become the world’s best-selling on-camera mic and has spawned many imitators, though none have replicated the professional performance of the original.”
“Over the past ten years, we have continued to innovate across our entire VideoMic range, and we are excited to now update the VideoMicro with next-generation features for today’s creators.”
With no batteries required to operate and no complicated controls, it’s a great fit for creators who want to instantly elevate the audio quality of their camera or smartphone with no fuss.
