“.. groom goes to the bathroom and it loses connectivity...” nothing worse than getting home only to find you have no audio of the groom taking a dump. I’ll be upgrading.
Seriously. Important storytelling element- Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool
Can you make a review video for the cinematic pictures and the colors for this movie.
" The Lady Of heaven" 2M views at trailer
@Augustine Preston I hear flixzone sucks
I love that you guys already have this video out.
I don’t even film weddings and I still want one.
If you put it on your leica, the negatives will have sound
I use the Rode Wireless Go every Sunday to record at church. The built in safety and dual feature is clutch! Sign me up!
I think the way the safety feature works may bum some people out but I’m waiting to test it before I pass judgment. I think it uses both transmitters to produce the safety track, which is pretty “meh”. That being said, I’m still psyched! - Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool I meant to say the transmitters being able to record and send a wireless signal is a game changer!
@@WeddingFilmSchool does the receiver have the ability to record as if it was a Rode micro ?
Looking forward to your in-depth review and obstruction tests.
Me too. Ours is on the way! - Jay
I can’t wait for this thing!!!
I'm a musician and want to supply my brides and grooms with some wirless mic setups and have them come through live through my P.A.!Is that possible?
You bet!
A very timely fashion my friend! Great job!
These look great! Do you think you'd need the 2 channel version of this for weddings or would the single channel version be OK?
Two channel is the way to go. But only one transmitter works great on safety mode
That’s a pretty compelling product. Thanks for mentioning the livestream functionality. Nice review, thank you from Sydney
Our pleasure! - Bobby
@@WeddingFilmSchool Specs say it doesn’t record in 32 bit float, but can export in 32 bit float? Does that mean it can still peak while recording? What’s the point in exporting in 32 bit float? i don understand record vs export
I love my RWG II, but would you recommend it for weddings in 2022?
I think Jay and Jared use the rwg in some scenarios still. I (Bobby) use the tascam. I don't really like wireless for weddings I know we've run into some issues with the rwg at times.
If it had the charging case with built in battery bank ... like some of the China brands have done, it would be desirable. I personally avoid all pro gadgets with built-in batteries. Good review, thanks.
Thanks for the review, very nicely done.
Thanks for watching!
TAKE MY MONEY!!! So stoked for this!
Major upgrade to the v1! Ours is in the mail
Locking Lav mic cable feature would've been nice!
Yeah. 😢
Dude this thing is gonna be sweet!
Rode response to Lark150? Maybe...!
Another great product btw, but the recording aspect is super intriguing- Jay
Interesting, I wonder how/if they got around U.S. patent laws on recording and transmitting at the same time (on the transmitter device). The U.S. version of the Deity wireless kit was restricted only to only allow you to transmit or record, but not both at the same time while the international version allowed the transmitter to transmit and record simultaneously.
I think that’s why you have to turn the recording feature on on the Mac and PC app.
I’m rode wireless 1 owner. Love the unit. But while filming salsa dancer and jiujitsu instructionals i would get some occasional drop offs when bodies cover the unit ( so line of sight blocked for a second or 2 ).
Could u tell me does the wireless 2 has a more robust connection which would remedy the problems i encountered with the first version or is it gonna be same issues??? I know it goes further an has internal recording
But i wanna to know if at short range with obstacles the 2 has better signal than the one?
Putting out a review next week after we tested it for while but it seems to be improved. That being said, I noticed some slight drop offs when the subject would turn around but that may be a combo of the distance and the line of sight break. It’s def better than the GO V1 btw.
I'm very interested. The only thing is not having a locking connection for the mic. That scares me for wedding s. I currently use the tascam dr10ls, but transmitting at the same time would be amazing
I feel ya on the locking jack. - Jay
I have the system
And the mic snap in really tight
The thing is certainly interesting!
However, the question is, do they write the audio to separate channels, not stereo?
The video will look like two different audio sequences, and therefore mono?
In the installation if anything, you can disable this or that audio channel?
...
Вещь конечно интересная!
Однако вопрос, они пишут звук в отдельные каналы, не стерео?
На видео будет выглядеть как два разных аудиоряда, а стало быть моно?
В монтажке если что можно будет отключать тот или иной аудиоканал?
...
I believe it records a separate mono track to EACH transmitter. You also must enable recording in the app- Jay
👍
Yes, I also assumed that. Thanks! ) I use an electronic translator, so I apologize for mistakes. I am from Russia (Krasnodar).
I have a question - when using both Transmitters: Seeing how the Transmitters are actually the ones Recording and that the Receiver is the one 'Merging' the audio (if you set to to 'merged') is it then possible to have a Merged audio in your camera (so ready to go for your quick edit), but still be able to access the files individually from the Transmitters if you set them to Record? (in case you don't like how the 'merged' file turned out in certain areas - I'm also assuming that it's easy to sync them up if this is the case, seeing how it's basically almost identical audio when a person is talking)
So long story short: Can you set the Transmitters to Internal Record independent files from 2 speakers WHILE setting your Receiver to Merged Audio for your camera?
Now why would you want to do this, you might ask? Well, besides docu work, walking interviews in like factories it actually helps at weddings. Let's say you have 2 Priests (or 2 people talking. You might have the bride and groom hooked up for the vows), great! Now from my experience they mostly talk at about the same volume and their speeches don't overlap, so you can mix them together on the Left channel. Now, by using a Y splitter, you can actually have a 3rd microphone for your Right channel - and that would be a shotgun microphone on your camera for the ambience, or a person laughing in the audience or a glass clinking when you point your camera in that direction etc. With proper mixing in editing you can create a much more natural experience for your final movie by mixing in a little or a lot of this additional ambiance track in certain places. AND (and this is why I ask this) -> If you are NOT satisfied with your Left channel that is basically a merger of 2 people talking, then you can easily access the Transmitters and offload the 2 files to replace your 'merged' track (for the whole thing or only when necessary). And syncing would be easy considering you'll have basically the same audio when a person is talking.
Yes, you can get the audio merged into your camera and still have the individual recordings as a backup. The recorder records just the audio from the receiver where it is built-in.
Can you record dual mono with this? For live events it would be nice.
Yes, via the stereo out into a camera or recorder. And each transmitter records internally. FULL REVIEW dropping later this week- Jay
Man, you guys are on top of it. Thank you for the review!
We aim to please - Jay
OMG! I need this tool!
What about interference with 3rd party microphones? That was a big deal with wireless go 1..
Def testing that next week!
Unfortunately, the "safety" of an automatic recording into the transmitter's memory is not that safe at all. Whenever the transmitter loses connection to the receiver, the recording stops. When the receiver turns off, the recording stops also. The recorder function is more of a backup recording for problems such as RF interference, short dropouts, etc. but not for instances where you lose connection with the receiver.
Still haven’t gotten to test it out for myself. Do you have one? - Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool Yes I received my set 2 days ago.
You can set each transmitter to start recording as soon as you power the transmitter on. This way regardless if the receiver loses connection the transmitter still records audio.
Mine is ordered and already on its way...😅
Excited to hear what you think! We just released an unboxing with a little more overview and will have a full in depth review with examples next week!
What lav mic would you recommend?
The Rode mic is decent. I’d just go that direction for weddings. - Jay
2:04 I feel that so hard!
Cool, the recording feature is sure a peace of mind for wedding. But I like the hollyland 150 also. The knob on it to quickly adjust gain is very cool feature for hollyland 150.
The Hollyland is great too- Jay
If I use one transmitter will be be in stereo?
will it be in stereo?
U can use it in Safety channel mode, actually. So even better. One channel will be 20db lower than the other so u won’t peak out. - Jay
Already bought a Hollyland Lark 150. Rode are late to the game. There are a few dual options already.
We'll see! The lark doesn't record straight to the transmitter like this one does and the rode go doubles the range of the lark. Excited to do a side by side comp
Battery time? Internal recording?
Sound improvement? Or about the same quality
Haven’t used it yet! Gonna run those test this week! - Jay
And, what aboat the Comica sett?
The Boom X-D2? That has 1/3 the range, I believe is bigger, and DOES NOT record on the transmitters. I’d say the Rode Go II roasts that set- Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool The range who cares, It will be used Ca. the camera, no?
@@jansundoy the receiver will but the transmitters being more powerful is a huge improvement. It doesn’t mean the Comica wouldn’t provide a similar result in a similar environment but there’s no debating that stonger signal increases reliability and that’s the name of the game with wedding filmmaking- Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool Thank u for respuesta .. ;)
Can they record in 32 bit?
Nope. At least it doesn’t seem so. Although I’d argue 32 bit float for a lav mic is somewhat pointless as the noise floor improvement isn’t really accessible because of the loud environments and the positioning of the microphone makes peaking out very unlikely. - Jay
32bit float?
Nope. - Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool not sure if you can answer this but what do i do if i wanna have more than 2 people talking like say 3 or 4?
@@YoungBlaze depends. U could always just buy two sets of transmitters. In Rode’s promo vid they have them hooked up to some shotgun mics so I assume u could use that with some omnidirectional mics and record more people if You HAD to, but I wouldn’t recommend it. I’d say 2 receivers and 4 transmitters is the way to go.
Please fix your LEDs they are not straight with the shelves, its doing my head in and I don't even have ocd
Blame Jared - Jay
Jason, you camera is crooked. It’s driving me nuts too 🤣-Jared
Lol why does this even matter? 😐
hustling hard
Extremely expensive, they should at list included the 2 mics. BH $459.00 with mics, is outrageous.
With two transmitters at $299 this is cheaper than buying the next best alternative 2x which is the tascam dr10L. And there are a variety of lav mics you can opt to use with this, you don't have to buy that B and H set specifically - Bobby
Actually I bought the product , and I must say I am quite disappointed. I have tried hooking it up to my IPhone using a brand new USB-c to lightning cable. Doesn’t work. Tried with another cable, doesn’t work, now tried with the supplied TRS cable + a TRS to lightning adapter, does not work...... I can not recommend it if you wanna use it with IPhone. Also the RODE webpage FAQ section on this is not functional
It’s only a Mac and PC app. No phone app.
@@WeddingFilmSchool Ehhhhh the Rode Wireless II is “only a Mac and PC app” makes a lot of sense, not
The rode wireless II go app that you hook up to and dial in settings is done through a mac computer or a pc....not an iPhone....
@@WeddingFilmSchool that is surely correct but has nothing to do with my comment
Guess what, tomorrow there will be different perfect mic, another prefect camera, another perfect tripod. If what you have works. Why spend profit.
Companies release new products over time?
Because the previous "perfect tool" was not perfect at all ) Simple incandescent light bulbs were perfect before LED lights are come
To each his own. To me a tool has to solve a problem. If you don’t have a problem then you don’t need a tool. As wedding filmmakers this tool is a new category of tool that solves a real problem, so I would say, while I j def stand the cynicism you have about “gear gear gear”, I don’t think that is the case here. If it is as advertised it’s gonna change some people’s work in a meaningful way and allow them to focus on their clients and art more than the gear. Good gear gets out of the way.
@@WeddingFilmSchool For sure! convenient tools give you freedom for creativity
