Mini directional microphone
The perfect smartphone microphone for the practical professional.
The RODE VideoMicro is an easy-to-use compact microphone designed to improve the audio quality of your smartphone videos thanks to its directional pattern and high-performance capsule. A perfect mic for professionals who seek a practical and reliable audio solution.
PLUG & PLAY DESIGN
No switches, no batteries, no hustles.
The RODE VideoMicro has no power button because it doesn’t need one. You can’t run out of battery because it has no batteries. You won’t miss-adjust switches or dials because there just not there. That’s what makes it so simple to use and so reliable. It just works. Plug it directly into your smartphone using one of our optional cables and press REC.
LARGE ½ INCH CONDENSER CAPSULE
High performance in a compact size.
Record outstanding audio thanks to its high-performance ½ inch condenser capsule packed in a compact and easy to use format.
Wide frequency range from 100Hz to 20kHz.
Excellent signal-to-noise ratio of 75dB SPL.
High sensitivity of -33dB re 1V/Pa.
DIRECTIONAL CARDIOID PATTERN
Capture only what’s important.
Directional microphones are designed to focus on the sound in front of the camera while reducing any other distracting peripheral sounds. The VideoMicro offers a directional cardioid pattern for focusing your audience’s attention on what’s important.
AUDIO TEST
Check the audio quality for yourself.
Plug in your headphones and compare for yourself the difference between using the Rode Videomicro and recording directly through the smartphone’s internal microphone.
DELUXE FURRY WINDSHIELD INCLUDED
Perfect outdoor recordings.
The wind is one of the biggest enemies of outdoor recordings. When the air above certain speeds passes through the edges of the microphone, it generates a multi-frequency whistling that will make your audio unusable. That’s why the VideoMicro includes a deluxe furry windshield which is usually only available as an option in professional microphones of a much higher range. You will now be prepared for recording clear outdoor audio even under windy conditions.
RYCOTE LYRE SHOCK-MOUNT
A pro mount for a great mic.
The slightest vibrations in your setup could potentially be transmitted to your mic and ruin your audio. The included Rycote® Lyre® shock mounting holds the mic in a “floating” way that absorbs all vibrations transmitted to the structure. For a completely secure adjustment to your rig or camera, the mic includes a standard cold-shoe mount with a locking ring that fits perfectly into the Shoulderpod G2.
GET YOUR SMARTPHONE CONNECTION CABLES
Connect the Videomicro directly to your iPhone or Android device.
Forget about searching for messy dongles or adapters for plugging your mic to your smartphone. Add one of our smartphone connection cables to your order and connect your VideoMicro directly to your mobile device. A practical solution for professionals who believe in simplicity.
