RODE Stereo Videomic

Manufacturer

Rode

The RODE Stereo VideoMic is a high-quality stereo microphone designed for use with camcorders, DSLR cameras and portable audio recorders. Two high-resolution 1/2" condenser capsules are mounted in a fixed X/Y stereo array, providing a very natural stereo recording, while still offering a high level of rear rejection. The Stereo VideoMic is an ideal microphone for capturing environmental and ambient sounds, as well as live music. For dialogue and directional applications the R*DEVideoMicandVideoMic Proare recommended. An in-built shock mounting system isolates the Stereo VideoMic capsule and electronics from its mount, providing isolation from external physical factors that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone. Its standard sized shoe mount also includes a 3/8" thread in the base for easy mounting on a boom pole or stand. In addition to the microphone's native 40Hz-20kHz response a selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz is available, which will prevent low end noise such as air conditioners and traffic from being recorded. A -10dB level attenuation or PAD, selectable from the rear face of the microphone, allows recording of loud sound sources, such as live music or motorsport. The R*DE Stereo VideoMic stereo on-camera microphone is designed in Australia and covered by R*DE Microphones' industry leading 10 year warranty.   Specifications Acoustic Principle Pressure Gradient Active Electronics JFET impedance converter Capsule 0.50" Polar Pattern Address Type End Frequency Range 40Hz - 20kHz Output Impedance 200 Maximum SPL 134dB SPL @ 1kHz, 1% THD into 1K load Sensitivity -38.0dB re 1 Volt/Pascal 12.60mV @ 94 dB SPL +/- 2 dB @ 1kHz Equivalent Noise Level A-weighted 20dB-A Power Options Weight 288.00gm Dimensions 65.00mmH x 102.00mmW x 170.00mmD Dimensions 65.00mmH x 102.00mmW x 170.00mmD Output Warranty 1 year with free extension to 10 years following registration
