The VideoMic Pro (and Stereo VideoMic Pro) audio cable is designed with an ultra light, multi strand shielded dual core cable. This allows for far lower noise transference when compared to the older style cable used in many video microphones currently on the market. The chosen cable is incredibly strong and is rated to several thousand flex cycles, ensuring that the cable lasts a long, long time.
Of course if this is not enough, the VideoMic Pro comes with our industry leading 10 year warranty, ensuring complete piece of mind.
We recommend an Alkaline or Lithium battery for the best possible battery life. All RØDE specifcations have been carried out using this type of battery. If you use a slightly lower power battery, the mic will work but may not meet our published specifcation.
The RØDE cold shoe adaptor is a standard size adaptor, also known as a universal shoe mount. This standard shoe is suitable for the majority of camera attachments. If your camera has a different or custom adaptor, please contact your camera manufacturer for information on converters to fit the universal shoe connection.
This is usually caused by the function of "Automatic Gain Control" or "AGC" on the camera.
When the camera cannot sense an audio input signal, it automatically increases the gain of the input. It is increased so much that the noise floor in the camera microphone amplifier becomes audible. The AGC can be disabled on some cameras and it is worth checking with your camera manufacturer for information on this, which can sometimes require a firmware update to the camera. RØDE have created the Stereo VideoMic Pro to help combat this issue, the Stereo VideoMic Pro contains a 20dB pre amplifier, boosting the mic signal so that the camera will see a good signal level and not engage its AGC.
We recommend setting your audio levels manually to achieve an optimum signal to noise ratio and disabling the AGC of the camera.
