Gain Modes
To change modes, press the Right Navigation button until you’re on the Gain Mode screen, press the Left Navigation button to cycle through the options, and press the Right Navigation button to select your preference. The different gain modes are:
Manual
This is the default mode and is tailored to provide cameras and other similar devices with the appropriate gain level to capture clear recordings at a reasonable volume level. You can adjust this gain level in 3dB increments (see the ’Adjusting Output Gain Levels’ section for more information).
Camera Preset
With this mode selected, you can cycle between any of the camera presets you have loaded into your Wireless PRO. For more information on loading camera presets, see the 'Configuring Camera Presets in RØDE Central' section.
Headphones
The Wireless PRO receiver has a dedicated headphone amplifier that you can activate by changing the gain mode to ‘Headphones’. This increases the output level to be suitable for monitoring audio.
The headphones output gain level will default to a low value to ensure it’s always at a safe level for listening. You will likely need to increase the level to be able to hear your audio clearly.
Headset
Just like the headphones output, the ‘Headset’ gain mode utilises the headphone amplifier, but also allows you to capture your headset microphone’s audio.
You can plug any microphone, such as a lavalier, into the RX Mic input on the receiver. However, as this is a TRRS connection, you must use a microphone with a TRRS connector such as the SmartLav+, a TRS to TRRS adaptor such as the SC4, or a TRS to TRRS cable as the SC7.
You will need to use the USB output to record the headset microphone’s audio, as the 3.5mm output is used to plug in the headset. See the ‘Audio Routing’ section for more information on this mode and how the RX Mic audio is routed.
