[VOByRobbins]

You rock, this is impressive, Love the way you think to make wireless audio easier!!! Your videos are fantastic, thank

[InvictusMotors]

Thank you for creating this video, helped us a lot to in terms of brining excellent audio quality to our videos

[cttp]

Caleb, you nailed this one! Great ideas, man :)

[TanyaOfMars]

This video was even more useful than I thought it was going to be! So many more things I can do with these mics than just using them as wireless lavs that I wouldn't have thought of!

[davidcardosophotography]

Awesome video! Won't be buying because of the cut outs, but still, awesome ideas!

[ResizeFilms]

Love that wireless Rode, it’s a really good and handy device.
Great video, greetings.

Dude, you just saved me like 200 bucks, I even already have the splitter! Love this channel.

[realthoprivate]

Great video! Thank you. One question: The audio does not sound very good, does it?! Cheap and versatile system for sure, but does it justify sacrificing audio quality or is it not that bad? Listening carefully, it seems like the wireless link reduces dynamic range and adds a weird mid-boost.

Can you hook this up to a sound board / mixer? To wireless transmit audio to record/stream? Also would turning the gain down on this be adequate for line level input?

[cpyimitatin]

That is a bad ass little _dual wireless lav_ set-up man 👊

Would you recommend this over something like the dual lav mics from _Saramonic_ ?

cold shoe mount link is not working...can someone provide?

[ikansolo]

Finding the right fit for the audio in my videos! Please do let me know if this works outdoors

[GadgetsGearCoffee]

I noticed in the audio in this video there is a long of strong "Sssss" sounds. How do we avoid that when recording? is it lowering the db?

[Gulzar]

Hi,
Can you give me advise how can I fix transmission rode microphone with gimbal smooth 4, any other option.

[oscdelagarza]

Did Rode pay you for giving them all these great idea that are in market now?

[geoff]

The headphones trick seems like a great idea but i see many issues with this.
First of all, The rode go is not designed for headphone level signals to be sent into its microphone input. wrong impedances will make it sound thin and the level im guessing will be very hot and hissy on the input stage.
Second, Its not a stereo send. you will only get one side (or a bad blend of both sides depending on whats wired where in the transmitter). And it's a mono output on the receiver.
I just imagine it to sound pretty bad.
I'd love to know if it actually works if anyones tried this and what it sounds like??

AWESOME video! Loved all of these extra uses you've found for the Wireless GO!

The headphone tip is pure GOLD! Thanks Caleb!
