channel on today's episode we're going to talk about this to talk about this to talk about this bam the rode wireless go-to system stay bam the rode wireless go-to system stay bam the rode wireless go-to system stay tuned tuned tuned all right you guys so this is the brand all right you guys so this is the brand all right you guys so this is the brand new rode wireless go to system new rode wireless go to system new rode wireless go to system it's brand new we ordered it maybe i it's brand new we ordered it maybe i it's brand new we ordered it maybe i want to say about two weeks ago and it want to say about two weeks ago and it want to say about two weeks ago and it came to us maybe a couple days ago and came to us maybe a couple days ago and came to us maybe a couple days ago and we've had a couple days to use it and it we've had a couple days to use it and it we've had a couple days to use it and it works out really great works out really great works out really great and because we've been we use it i can and because we've been we use it i can and because we've been we use it i can tell you from personal experience tell you from personal experience tell you from personal experience our personal opinions about it and not our personal opinions about it and not our personal opinions about it and not just an unboxing and just an unboxing and just an unboxing and we'll get into that soon so without we'll get into that soon so without we'll get into that soon so without further ado further ado further ado let's get into unboxing this in the box you get one road wireless go in the box you get one road wireless go in the box you get one road wireless go to system receiver two rode wireless go to system receiver two rode wireless go to system receiver two rode wireless go two two two system transmitters three air muffles system transmitters three air muffles system transmitters three air muffles air baffles whatever you wanna call them air baffles whatever you wanna call them air baffles whatever you wanna call them a lot of people call air baffles a lot of people call air baffles a lot of people call air baffles one trs cable standard road trs cable one trs cable standard road trs cable one trs cable standard road trs cable and you get and you get and you get three usba to usbc cables three usba to usbc cables three usba to usbc cables you also get a neoprene pouch okay it is you also get a neoprene pouch okay it is you also get a neoprene pouch okay it is one big pouch it's not one big pouch it's not one big pouch it's not individually sectioned off or anything individually sectioned off or anything individually sectioned off or anything like that but it's just one big nice like that but it's just one big nice like that but it's just one big nice pretty much pouch pretty much pouch pretty much pouch this is the first generation palette so this is the first generation palette so this is the first generation palette so for this first generation pouch second for this first generation pouch second for this first generation pouch second generation pouch it's pretty much generation pouch it's pretty much generation pouch it's pretty much exactly the same material designed exactly the same material designed exactly the same material designed exactly the same except the second exactly the same except the second exactly the same except the second generation one is bigger generation one is bigger generation one is bigger obviously because there's more obviously because there's more obviously because there's more components so that's what you get in the components so that's what you get in the components so that's what you get in the box obviously without box obviously without box obviously without there's an instruction manual and stuff there's an instruction manual and stuff there's an instruction manual and stuff like that in there but we already like that in there but we already like that in there but we already read through that and not on the table read through that and not on the table read through that and not on the table anymore so anymore so anymore so let's talk about some of the basic let's talk about some of the basic let's talk about some of the basic similarities between the first similarities between the first similarities between the first generation and second generation one generation and second generation one generation and second generation one the first generation one we've had maybe the first generation one we've had maybe the first generation one we've had maybe i want to say maybe ish two years i want to say maybe ish two years i want to say maybe ish two years ago-ish and we've used it to record ago-ish and we've used it to record ago-ish and we've used it to record pretty much every single video on this pretty much every single video on this pretty much every single video on this channel channel channel we ordered it from b h it came to us we we ordered it from b h it came to us we we ordered it from b h it came to us we reviewed it reviewed it reviewed it we liked it we kept it um and all that we liked it we kept it um and all that we liked it we kept it um and all that fun stuff and like i said we've used it fun stuff and like i said we've used it fun stuff and like i said we've used it for every video for every video for every video some weddings some other events and some weddings some other events and some weddings some other events and meetings and things like that but it's meetings and things like that but it's meetings and things like that but it's actually been a really great system actually been a really great system actually been a really great system it's been a really great system for what it's been a really great system for what it's been a really great system for what it's designed for don't try to replace it's designed for don't try to replace it's designed for don't try to replace like your ulxd systems or like your ulxd systems or like your ulxd systems or sharax cnd systems or any of that fun sharax cnd systems or any of that fun sharax cnd systems or any of that fun stuff for what like i said what it is stuff for what like i said what it is stuff for what like i said what it is this is really great i can't can't this is really great i can't can't this is really great i can't can't recommend it enough for content creators recommend it enough for content creators recommend it enough for content creators or video bloggers or any of that fun or video bloggers or any of that fun or video bloggers or any of that fun stuff stuff stuff so as you can see if you've already seen so as you can see if you've already seen so as you can see if you've already seen the first generation one system the first generation one system the first generation one system this is the second generation system the this is the second generation system the this is the second generation system the if you can't tell already if you can't tell already if you can't tell already the form factor and the design is the form factor and the design is the form factor and the design is everything it's pretty much everything it's pretty much everything it's pretty much the same except with the major the same except with the major the same except with the major improvements improvements improvements and i'm going to say this is pretty much and i'm going to say this is pretty much and i'm going to say this is pretty much game-changing improvements okay game-changing improvements okay game-changing improvements okay so let's talk about some of the so let's talk about some of the so let's talk about some of the similarities between besides the design similarities between besides the design similarities between besides the design so the similarities really comes down to so the similarities really comes down to so the similarities really comes down to the design the design the design it works on also the same 2. 4 gigahertz it works on also the same 2. 4 gigahertz it works on also the same 2. 4 gigahertz frequency spectrum frequency spectrum frequency spectrum if you don't know what that means 2. 4 if you don't know what that means 2. 4 if you don't know what that means 2. 4 gigahertz is the band of this gigahertz is the band of this gigahertz is the band of this frequency spectrum that you can use it's frequency spectrum that you can use it's frequency spectrum that you can use it's license free a lot of stuff uses the 2. 4 license free a lot of stuff uses the 2. 4 license free a lot of stuff uses the 2. 4 gigahertz frequency gigahertz frequency gigahertz frequency band spec band in the spectrum um it's band spec band in the spectrum um it's band spec band in the spectrum um it's used for like old wi-fi systems used for like old wi-fi systems used for like old wi-fi systems probably some bluetooth systems a bunch probably some bluetooth systems a bunch probably some bluetooth systems a bunch of other systems use it it's very of other systems use it it's very of other systems use it it's very crowded crowded crowded but the system works really well the but the system works really well the but the system works really well the main reason it works really well is main reason it works really well is main reason it works really well is because because because it can talk to each other and it can it can talk to each other and it can it can talk to each other and it can channel hop and channel switch to a channel hop and channel switch to a channel hop and channel switch to a clean frequency if one is available clean frequency if one is available clean frequency if one is available so usually it works really well if so usually it works really well if so usually it works really well if you're gonna be in a crowded conference you're gonna be in a crowded conference you're gonna be in a crowded conference center center center or a huge event where everybody is going or a huge event where everybody is going or a huge event where everybody is going to be using it to be using it to be using it i'm going to tell you you're probably i'm going to tell you you're probably i'm going to tell you you're probably going to have a situation going to have a situation going to have a situation on clean audio signals and things like on clean audio signals and things like on clean audio signals and things like that that that mainly because there's only a limited mainly because there's only a limited mainly because there's only a limited number of channels and different time number of channels and different time number of channels and different time slots you can send information slots you can send information slots you can send information and you're going to get a bunch of and you're going to get a bunch of and you're going to get a bunch of interference okay but they have a interference okay but they have a interference okay but they have a solution for that so we'll get into that solution for that so we'll get into that solution for that so we'll get into that later later later like i said the design is pretty much like i said the design is pretty much like i said the design is pretty much the same so let's get rid of all this the same so let's get rid of all this the same so let's get rid of all this stuff the cables stuff the cables stuff the cables get rid of this air baffles design's the get rid of this air baffles design's the get rid of this air baffles design's the same but the functionality is actually same but the functionality is actually same but the functionality is actually very different so um it still functions very different so um it still functions very different so um it still functions in the same way in terms of in the same way in terms of in the same way in terms of you turn it on and it's already paired you turn it on and it's already paired you turn it on and it's already paired so like out of the box so like out of the box so like out of the box it comes paired you don't have to do any it comes paired you don't have to do any it comes paired you don't have to do any of that stuff all you really have to do of that stuff all you really have to do of that stuff all you really have to do is charge it and use it that's all you is charge it and use it that's all you is charge it and use it that's all you really got to do really got to do really got to do so you have two transmitters and you so you have two transmitters and you so you have two transmitters and you have one have one have one receiver so this is actually a dual receiver so this is actually a dual receiver so this is actually a dual channel system channel system channel system meaning you can either use this as a meaning you can either use this as a meaning you can either use this as a mono mono dual mono system recording mono mono dual mono system recording mono mono dual mono system recording or you can use it in a stereo system or you can use it in a stereo system or you can use it in a stereo system left right system okay they have built in some very ingenious they have built in some very ingenious they have built in some very ingenious features into this features into this features into this and i think it has actually designed and i think it has actually designed and i think it has actually designed from maybe some of the lesson things from maybe some of the lesson things from maybe some of the lesson things that they learned so for instance that they learned so for instance that they learned so for instance on the first generation transmitter that on the first generation transmitter that on the first generation transmitter that the air baffle always falls off if you the air baffle always falls off if you the air baffle always falls off if you guys haven't checked it it's literally guys haven't checked it it's literally guys haven't checked it it's literally designed you push in there and it just designed you push in there and it just designed you push in there and it just falls off falls off falls off it it's ridiculous how how bad it was on it it's ridiculous how how bad it was on it it's ridiculous how how bad it was on the second generation they've now the second generation they've now the second generation they've now designed this air baffle designed this air baffle designed this air baffle it's a little bit smaller too but now it's a little bit smaller too but now it's a little bit smaller too but now you actually put it on by pushing it in you actually put it on by pushing it in you actually put it on by pushing it in and turning it so now it clips into and turning it so now it clips into and turning it so now it clips into place you it doesn't even fall off even place you it doesn't even fall off even place you it doesn't even fall off even if you pull on it if you pull on it if you pull on it so it's a push and turn system and that so it's a push and turn system and that so it's a push and turn system and that is actually really great because now is actually really great because now is actually really great because now people can actually people can actually people can actually use the air baffles other people use the air baffles other people use the air baffles other people sometimes you would see people super sometimes you would see people super sometimes you would see people super gluing it or gluing it or gluing it or putting like a rubber band around it to putting like a rubber band around it to putting like a rubber band around it to hold it in place now you don't have to hold it in place now you don't have to hold it in place now you don't have to do that anymore do that anymore do that anymore okay the transmitters still have the okay the transmitters still have the okay the transmitters still have the 3. 5 millimeter trs microphone inputs you 3. 5 millimeter trs microphone inputs you 3. 5 millimeter trs microphone inputs you can use into it can use into it can use into it the microphone built into transmitter is the microphone built into transmitter is the microphone built into transmitter is actually really actually really actually really good okay and you don't actually need good okay and you don't actually need good okay and you don't actually need the the the 3. 5 millimeter external mic you can use 3. 5 millimeter external mic you can use 3. 5 millimeter external mic you can use it i think there's like some sennheiser it i think there's like some sennheiser it i think there's like some sennheiser i can't remember the model number but i i can't remember the model number but i i can't remember the model number but i think that's that's in here the think that's that's in here the think that's that's in here the microphone by itself microphone by itself microphone by itself that a lot of people use for speeching that a lot of people use for speeching that a lot of people use for speeching events and things like lav mic events and things like lav mic events and things like lav mic is actually i think it's like four is actually i think it's like four is actually i think it's like four hundred dollars something like 350 or hundred dollars something like 350 or hundred dollars something like 350 or 439-ish dollars 439-ish dollars 439-ish dollars that's actually really really clean mic that's actually really really clean mic that's actually really really clean mic it's very comparable it's very comparable it's very comparable i don't want to say it's as good as that i don't want to say it's as good as that i don't want to say it's as good as that might because the clarity might because the clarity might because the clarity on the highs and the mid highs or i feel on the highs and the mid highs or i feel on the highs and the mid highs or i feel like it's not this is just a personal like it's not this is just a personal like it's not this is just a personal opinion it's not as clean opinion it's not as clean opinion it's not as clean but i think for most general people but i think for most general people but i think for most general people using this system using this system using this system you're probably not going to be able to you're probably not going to be able to you're probably not going to be able to tell a difference okay tell a difference okay tell a difference okay so these two transmitters are exactly so these two transmitters are exactly so these two transmitters are exactly the same like i said it's got the the same like i said it's got the the same like i said it's got the built-in mic built-in mic built-in mic the 3. 5 trs microphone input two led the 3. 5 trs microphone input two led the 3. 5 trs microphone input two led lights one for connection lights one for connection lights one for connection one for battery status power button and one for battery status power button and one for battery status power button and a usbc a usbc a usbc port these two are exactly the same this port these two are exactly the same this port these two are exactly the same this receiver is pretty much the same as the receiver is pretty much the same as the receiver is pretty much the same as the first generation one first generation one first generation one except now it actually displays both except now it actually displays both except now it actually displays both channels on here channels on here channels on here and now it also has two buttons on here and now it also has two buttons on here and now it also has two buttons on here one for each side one for each side one for each side you can actually use one to toggle you can actually use one to toggle you can actually use one to toggle through through through the display on here and either mute or the display on here and either mute or the display on here and either mute or unmute certain mics and things like that unmute certain mics and things like that unmute certain mics and things like that this one also does have an audio out and this one also does have an audio out and this one also does have an audio out and it has a it has a it has a usbc port and like the first generation usbc port and like the first generation usbc port and like the first generation system you can system you can system you can charge and use it at the same time charge and use it at the same time charge and use it at the same time that is a great feature some things you that is a great feature some things you that is a great feature some things you just plug in and it just turns off you just plug in and it just turns off you just plug in and it just turns off you can't charge and use at the same time can't charge and use at the same time can't charge and use at the same time those things are annoying those things are annoying those things are annoying this is not one of them so some of the this is not one of them so some of the this is not one of them so some of the features that really comes in here are features that really comes in here are features that really comes in here are let's talk about the transmitter in the let's talk about the transmitter in the let's talk about the transmitter in the transmitter just in case you can transmitter just in case you can transmitter just in case you can just in case you get dropouts and things just in case you get dropouts and things just in case you get dropouts and things like that they have like that they have like that they have found a way in built-in memory on this found a way in built-in memory on this found a way in built-in memory on this transmitter transmitter transmitter such that if you use the app that comes such that if you use the app that comes such that if you use the app that comes with it that with it that with it that we'll talk about that later you can we'll talk about that later you can we'll talk about that later you can configure the transmitter to record configure the transmitter to record configure the transmitter to record internally on the memory inside the internally on the memory inside the internally on the memory inside the transmitter itself transmitter itself transmitter itself okay and i think believe i believe okay and i think believe i believe okay and i think believe i believe somewhere somewhere somewhere you can get somewhere around i want to you can get somewhere around i want to you can get somewhere around i want to say maybe seven or 48 hours depending on say maybe seven or 48 hours depending on say maybe seven or 48 hours depending on how much how much how much which form format you're recording with which form format you're recording with which form format you're recording with so but the interesting thing is now you so but the interesting thing is now you so but the interesting thing is now you can actually record directly on here so can actually record directly on here so can actually record directly on here so that even if the connection to the that even if the connection to the that even if the connection to the receiver drops out receiver drops out receiver drops out the the raw audio signal is actually the the raw audio signal is actually the the raw audio signal is actually still recorded on here still recorded on here still recorded on here and what you would do is you would plug and what you would do is you would plug and what you would do is you would plug it into the computer and just pull it it into the computer and just pull it it into the computer and just pull it off or export it off of here off or export it off of here off or export it off of here i don't know exactly which format it i don't know exactly which format it i don't know exactly which format it records them but i believe you can records them but i believe you can records them but i believe you can get a wave or an mp3 file but we'll get get a wave or an mp3 file but we'll get get a wave or an mp3 file but we'll get into that when we talk about the app into that when we talk about the app into that when we talk about the app both of them can do that so so talking both of them can do that so so talking both of them can do that so so talking about that here about that here about that here so this is interesting because you can so this is interesting because you can so this is interesting because you can re you can configure each one meaning re you can configure each one meaning re you can configure each one meaning you plug in each one to an app you plug in each one to an app you plug in each one to an app that that they have it runs on windows that that they have it runs on windows that that they have it runs on windows and mac and you can configure it to and mac and you can configure it to and mac and you can configure it to record record record internally to the memory that is stored internally to the memory that is stored internally to the memory that is stored in here and i believe it gets somewhere in here and i believe it gets somewhere in here and i believe it gets somewhere around maybe 40 don't quote me on this i around maybe 40 don't quote me on this i around maybe 40 don't quote me on this i think it was like 48 or 7 hours we'll think it was like 48 or 7 hours we'll think it was like 48 or 7 hours we'll look into it when we get it when we plug look into it when we get it when we plug look into it when we get it when we plug it in it in it in but there is an external application but there is an external application but there is an external application that you install in a computer that you install in a computer that you install in a computer and you can plug in your rode wireless and you can plug in your rode wireless and you can plug in your rode wireless go systems for go systems for go systems for system updates and configuration system updates and configuration system updates and configuration that's both on the transmitter and the that's both on the transmitter and the that's both on the transmitter and the receiver side receiver side receiver side on the transmitter side what you get is on the transmitter side what you get is on the transmitter side what you get is you can record you can record you can record you can set the you can set i believe you can set the you can set i believe you can set the you can set i believe two options on there you can set two options on there you can set two options on there you can set the um to disable the mute and unmute the um to disable the mute and unmute the um to disable the mute and unmute button function so that nobody button function so that nobody button function so that nobody accidentally mutes and things like that accidentally mutes and things like that accidentally mutes and things like that and you can enable internal recording on and you can enable internal recording on and you can enable internal recording on the transmitter itself the transmitter itself the transmitter itself so when you enable internal recording on so when you enable internal recording on so when you enable internal recording on the transmitter itself the transmitter itself the transmitter itself it still works as the same wireless go it still works as the same wireless go it still works as the same wireless go system that you're used to it still system that you're used to it still system that you're used to it still transmits to the trend transmits to the trend transmits to the trend to the receiver but now it also records to the receiver but now it also records to the receiver but now it also records the same signal on the same signal on the same signal on to the transmitter what benefit do you to the transmitter what benefit do you to the transmitter what benefit do you get from that get from that get from that the benefit you gain from that is now the benefit you gain from that is now the benefit you gain from that is now you have a you have a you have a clear unmodified unaltered clear unmodified unaltered clear unmodified unaltered like signal without interference like signal without interference like signal without interference directly recorded onto the transmitter directly recorded onto the transmitter directly recorded onto the transmitter itself such that itself such that itself such that if you did have an instance where you if you did have an instance where you if you did have an instance where you had interference and you had some kind had interference and you had some kind had interference and you had some kind of dropout of dropout of dropout you could the clean signal or the clean you could the clean signal or the clean you could the clean signal or the clean audio is still recorded on audio is still recorded on audio is still recorded on here okay there's actually a way you can here okay there's actually a way you can here okay there's actually a way you can you can configure it so you can press you can configure it so you can press you can configure it so you can press buttons buttons buttons on the system so that you can mark parts on the system so that you can mark parts on the system so that you can mark parts where where where you think it dropped out or reduced you think it dropped out or reduced you think it dropped out or reduced interference and things like that but interference and things like that but interference and things like that but i'm not sure how people are really going i'm not sure how people are really going i'm not sure how people are really going to use it since they're probably going to use it since they're probably going to use it since they're probably going to just to just to just import off of here that'll be my guess import off of here that'll be my guess import off of here that'll be my guess but to each their own but like i said but to each their own but like i said but to each their own but like i said you it records on here and transmits at you it records on here and transmits at you it records on here and transmits at the same time the same time the same time that's actually really great because that's actually really great because that's actually really great because what i was afraid of what i was afraid of what i was afraid of when i first heard about it was was when i first heard about it was was when i first heard about it was was going to be was going to be one or the going to be was going to be one or the going to be was going to be one or the other other other now you can actually do both and you can now you can actually do both and you can now you can actually do both and you can do that with both do that with both do that with both receivers or both transmitters at the receivers or both transmitters at the receivers or both transmitters at the same time same time same time okay so that like i said it's a very okay so that like i said it's a very okay so that like i said it's a very neat feature i'm glad neat feature i'm glad neat feature i'm glad rhode has thought of that that's a game rhode has thought of that that's a game rhode has thought of that that's a game changer changer changer so i'm going back to that so just touch so i'm going back to that so just touch so i'm going back to that so just touch a little bit a little bit on that a little bit a little bit on that a little bit a little bit on that so if you had a really important thing so if you had a really important thing so if you had a really important thing that you're recording and maybe you're that you're recording and maybe you're that you're recording and maybe you're going to a conference and you're afraid going to a conference and you're afraid going to a conference and you're afraid that everybody that everybody that everybody is going to be uh using wireless go to is going to be uh using wireless go to is going to be uh using wireless go to system you don't necessarily have to system you don't necessarily have to system you don't necessarily have to worry about the interface too much worry about the interface too much worry about the interface too much because you're recording directly onto because you're recording directly onto because you're recording directly onto the transmitter the transmitter the transmitter and you get and you get the audio file and you get and you get the audio file and you get and you get the audio file off like i said if i plug into the off like i said if i plug into the off like i said if i plug into the computer and you just pull it off computer and you just pull it off computer and you just pull it off export it out you can i think you can export it out you can i think you can export it out you can i think you can get it on a wave in mp3 get it on a wave in mp3 get it on a wave in mp3 on the tran on the receiver you can also on the tran on the receiver you can also on the tran on the receiver you can also plug in the receiver plug in the receiver plug in the receiver to the computer we can show you that in to the computer we can show you that in to the computer we can show you that in a bit a bit a bit and you get a lot of options that you and you get a lot of options that you and you get a lot of options that you can do on here one of the options that i can do on here one of the options that i can do on here one of the options that i found that was very interesting was found that was very interesting was found that was very interesting was remember the gain adjustment on the road remember the gain adjustment on the road remember the gain adjustment on the road wire let's go wire let's go wire let's go first generation system you had i think first generation system you had i think first generation system you had i think it was -6 or minus 12db or something it was -6 or minus 12db or something it was -6 or minus 12db or something like that there's pretty much three like that there's pretty much three like that there's pretty much three options options options on this by default it uses the same on this by default it uses the same on this by default it uses the same three options or three selections you three options or three selections you three options or three selections you can get can get can get but on the inside you can also tran you but on the inside you can also tran you but on the inside you can also tran you can configure can configure can configure the receiver to be in different um selective mode meaning you can do fine selective mode meaning you can do fine selective mode meaning you can do fine selection we're actually plus or minuses selection we're actually plus or minuses selection we're actually plus or minuses by 1 db by 1db increments and a bunch of by 1 db by 1db increments and a bunch of by 1 db by 1db increments and a bunch of other things we'll talk about that in a other things we'll talk about that in a other things we'll talk about that in a bit bit bit but you can also do system updates via but you can also do system updates via but you can also do system updates via this this this usbc port okay usbc port okay usbc port okay so now the game changing thing i want to so now the game changing thing i want to so now the game changing thing i want to tell you about this tell you about this tell you about this is if you get the is if you get the is if you get the proper cable for your iphone or an ipad proper cable for your iphone or an ipad proper cable for your iphone or an ipad or whatever it is or whatever it is or whatever it is like for instance this sc15 cable like for instance this sc15 cable like for instance this sc15 cable from rode this sc15 cable is actually from rode this sc15 cable is actually from rode this sc15 cable is actually pretty much a pretty much a pretty much a usbc to lightning cable usbc to lightning cable usbc to lightning cable what you can do with that this is a what you can do with that this is a what you can do with that this is a secondary cable we've already used the secondary cable we've already used the secondary cable we've already used the first one first one first one is you can connect the usbc is you can connect the usbc is you can connect the usbc port here on the receiver and you can port here on the receiver and you can port here on the receiver and you can connect this part to the phone connect this part to the phone connect this part to the phone okay and that's how it records so now okay and that's how it records so now okay and that's how it records so now you don't you don't you don't all only send in an analog signal out of all only send in an analog signal out of all only send in an analog signal out of the receiver the receiver the receiver you can send a digital signal to a you can send a digital signal to a you can send a digital signal to a device it doesn't have to be an iphone device it doesn't have to be an iphone device it doesn't have to be an iphone you could probably send it to an android you could probably send it to an android you could probably send it to an android or or or or windows or something like that i or windows or something like that i or windows or something like that i don't have a window android or windows don't have a window android or windows don't have a window android or windows but you can do that but you can do that but you can do that using this sc15 cable you can also if using this sc15 cable you can also if using this sc15 cable you can also if you just have a standard usb you just have a standard usb you just have a standard usb a port on your computer you can actually a port on your computer you can actually a port on your computer you can actually set this set this set this up to be a internal or a mic microphone up to be a internal or a mic microphone up to be a internal or a mic microphone source for your computer what that means source for your computer what that means source for your computer what that means is you plug this in is you plug this in is you plug this in here you plug this into your computer in here you plug this into your computer in here you plug this into your computer in our case we always plug into our our case we always plug into our our case we always plug into our macbooks and now on the mac macbooks and now on the mac macbooks and now on the mac you can without installing any you can without installing any you can without installing any additional drivers you can additional drivers you can additional drivers you can set the mac to take input from here set the mac to take input from here set the mac to take input from here and this is a digital signal at the same and this is a digital signal at the same and this is a digital signal at the same time time time you can plug in headphones plug it into you can plug in headphones plug it into you can plug in headphones plug it into this analog out port and still monitor this analog out port and still monitor this analog out port and still monitor the system or monitor the audio going in the system or monitor the audio going in the system or monitor the audio going in and out the bad thing is that and out the bad thing is that and out the bad thing is that i was i didn't find any ways to to i was i didn't find any ways to to i was i didn't find any ways to to adjust the volume that was coming in and adjust the volume that was coming in and adjust the volume that was coming in and out of out of out of this this thing here except changing the this this thing here except changing the this this thing here except changing the gain gain gain but i mean this is a game changer i mean but i mean this is a game changer i mean but i mean this is a game changer i mean right because now you can send both a right because now you can send both a right because now you can send both a digital and audio signal out of here digital and audio signal out of here digital and audio signal out of here that is awesome all right thanks for that is awesome all right thanks for that is awesome all right thanks for that road that road that road so that's pretty much the basic overview so that's pretty much the basic overview so that's pretty much the basic overview of the system we'll get of the system we'll get of the system we'll get into the um application into the um application into the um application and then we'll really get into it and then we'll really get into it and then we'll really get into it because like i said this has been really because like i said this has been really because like i said this has been really nice nice nice now you can do um dual channel recording now you can do um dual channel recording now you can do um dual channel recording like do dual like two mono sources or like do dual like two mono sources or like do dual like two mono sources or you can just do one stereo recording you can just do one stereo recording you can just do one stereo recording okay so like for instance if you're at a okay so like for instance if you're at a okay so like for instance if you're at a wedding and you head to mike wedding and you head to mike wedding and you head to mike may usually if you're at a wedding and may usually if you're at a wedding and may usually if you're at a wedding and you're using like a videography or you're using like a videography or you're using like a videography or something like that something like that something like that what you find is probably two or three what you find is probably two or three what you find is probably two or three of these systems used at the same time of these systems used at the same time of these systems used at the same time one on the efficient one on the groom one on the efficient one on the groom one on the efficient one on the groom one on the bride one on the bride one on the bride sometimes people just try to get one on sometimes people just try to get one on sometimes people just try to get one on the efficient and try to capture the the efficient and try to capture the the efficient and try to capture the audio around it never works out really audio around it never works out really audio around it never works out really well okay well okay well okay sometimes people put one on the bride sometimes people put one on the bride sometimes people put one on the bride one on the groom two different cameras one on the groom two different cameras one on the groom two different cameras sometimes you see people receive using sometimes you see people receive using sometimes you see people receive using two different independent systems using two different independent systems using two different independent systems using like a stereo mix like a stereo mix like a stereo mix that mixes those two systems into one that mixes those two systems into one that mixes those two systems into one camera so camera so camera so that that's now you can reduce all that that that's now you can reduce all that that that's now you can reduce all that gear and just get one wireless go gear and just get one wireless go gear and just get one wireless go to system and do it all to system and do it all to system and do it all okay like i said this way or just stereo okay like i said this way or just stereo okay like i said this way or just stereo that is awesome let me get the computer that is awesome let me get the computer that is awesome let me get the computer and get into the app and get into the app and get into the app all right you guys and we're back so now all right you guys and we're back so now all right you guys and we're back so now i have the app i have the app i have the app up this is the rode central app the app up this is the rode central app the app up this is the rode central app the app you just go to the road and website and you just go to the road and website and you just go to the road and website and you just go to the road wireless go to you just go to the road wireless go to you just go to the road wireless go to system and on the bottom of the page system and on the bottom of the page system and on the bottom of the page you can select to download the you can select to download the you can select to download the application it's either in windows or application it's either in windows or application it's either in windows or you can download the mac you can download the mac you can download the mac os x version okay i'm using big sur here os x version okay i'm using big sur here os x version okay i'm using big sur here and it's worked out fine for me i didn't and it's worked out fine for me i didn't and it's worked out fine for me i didn't have to install any drivers none of that have to install any drivers none of that have to install any drivers none of that weird weird weird funny weird stuff so what you really do funny weird stuff so what you really do funny weird stuff so what you really do is you take this cable that it comes is you take this cable that it comes is you take this cable that it comes with with with actually pretty much almost any usb 8 actually pretty much almost any usb 8 actually pretty much almost any usb 8 usbc cable would probably work usbc cable would probably work usbc cable would probably work plug it in and first i'm going to plug plug it in and first i'm going to plug plug it in and first i'm going to plug in the in the in the transmitter okay take a transmitter plug transmitter okay take a transmitter plug transmitter okay take a transmitter plug that in that in that in bam all right you guys and we're back so bam all right you guys and we're back so bam all right you guys and we're back so now we have it now we have it now we have it here's the macbook okay um you can and here's the macbook okay um you can and here's the macbook okay um you can and here's the rode central app what you do here's the rode central app what you do here's the rode central app what you do is you go to the rode is you go to the rode is you go to the rode webpage you go to the navigate to the webpage you go to the navigate to the webpage you go to the navigate to the rode wireless to go system and then you rode wireless to go system and then you rode wireless to go system and then you can select on the bottom of the page or can select on the bottom of the page or can select on the bottom of the page or

application okay you can download the windows or the mac you can download the windows or the mac you can download the windows or the mac version here we're running mac because i version here we're running mac because i version here we're running mac because i don't use windows anywhere so this is it don't use windows anywhere so this is it don't use windows anywhere so this is it you download and install it you run the you download and install it you run the you download and install it you run the app and this is pretty much what you get app and this is pretty much what you get app and this is pretty much what you get what we got now is you take this cable what we got now is you take this cable what we got now is you take this cable that it comes with usb 8 usb c cable that it comes with usb 8 usb c cable that it comes with usb 8 usb c cable and if you have a usbc only cable or you and if you have a usbc only cable or you and if you have a usbc only cable or you like a macbook pro with the usbc only like a macbook pro with the usbc only like a macbook pro with the usbc only then you can just get a usbc usbc cable then you can just get a usbc usbc cable then you can just get a usbc usbc cable or you can just get an adapter or you can just get an adapter or you can just get an adapter in our case and this computer actually in our case and this computer actually in our case and this computer actually has usb ports so we're going to be using has usb ports so we're going to be using has usb ports so we're going to be using the cable that it came with the cable that it came with the cable that it came with i'm going to connect a rode wireless go i'm going to connect a rode wireless go i'm going to connect a rode wireless go to to to transmitter it's off okay it can be on transmitter it's off okay it can be on transmitter it's off okay it can be on it can be off i use it can be off i use it can be off i use itself right now it doesn't matter it itself right now it doesn't matter it itself right now it doesn't matter it still works if you turn it if it's off still works if you turn it if it's off still works if you turn it if it's off and you plug it in and you plug it in and you plug it in this is what you get all right so when this is what you get all right so when this is what you get all right so when you plug it in you plug it in you plug it in now you have this okay so here is you now you have this okay so here is you now you have this okay so here is you just click on it and just click on it and just click on it and it takes you to pretty much things that it takes you to pretty much things that it takes you to pretty much things that you do so i'm running version firmware you do so i'm running version firmware you do so i'm running version firmware 1. 2. 3 that's because i have already 1. 2. 3 that's because i have already 1. 2. 3 that's because i have already updated this like i mentioned before updated this like i mentioned before updated this like i mentioned before and if you click on this gear icon right and if you click on this gear icon right and if you click on this gear icon right here here here what you get here is settings that you what you get here is settings that you what you get here is settings that you can go in for the transmitter can go in for the transmitter can go in for the transmitter so on the transmitter like i said you so on the transmitter like i said you so on the transmitter like i said you can either hit the record on can either hit the record on can either hit the record on off button so when you do record on off button so when you do record on off button so when you do record on what will happen is anytime the what will happen is anytime the what will happen is anytime the the system is on and connected it will the system is on and connected it will the system is on and connected it will automatically automatically automatically start recording on the transmitter's start recording on the transmitter's start recording on the transmitter's local storage okay local storage okay local storage okay as you can see here local storage with as you can see here local storage with as you can see here local storage with already three minutes and 18 already three minutes and 18 already three minutes and 18 min or three minutes and 18 seconds min or three minutes and 18 seconds min or three minutes and 18 seconds already recorded already recorded already recorded there's 43 hours remaining and that's in there's 43 hours remaining and that's in there's 43 hours remaining and that's in standard standard standard quality compressed format you can do quality compressed format you can do quality compressed format you can do broadcast on broadcast on broadcast on compressed format and you get about compressed format and you get about compressed format and you get about seven ish hours okay seven ish hours okay seven ish hours okay it it doesn't do this out of the box it it doesn't do this out of the box it it doesn't do this out of the box it's only it's only it's only it's only set to record here because i it's only set to record here because i it's only set to record here because i already set this transmitter to record already set this transmitter to record already set this transmitter to record um it out of the box it's set to off um it out of the box it's set to off um it out of the box it's set to off okay so okay so okay so fun with that when it is recording you fun with that when it is recording you fun with that when it is recording you will see will see will see on the receiver a little red dot just on the receiver a little red dot just on the receiver a little red dot just like it shows here the little red dot like it shows here the little red dot like it shows here the little red dot will show that it is recording on the will show that it is recording on the will show that it is recording on the receiver receiver receiver you can set one of them to record in you can set one of them to record in you can set one of them to record in mono mode mono mode mono mode and the other one to not record okay and the other one to not record okay and the other one to not record okay so you can only have we can have one red so you can only have we can have one red so you can only have we can have one red dot or you can have two red dots okay dot or you can have two red dots okay dot or you can have two red dots okay um it's it's not to pick it that way so um it's it's not to pick it that way so um it's it's not to pick it that way so it is very configurable it is very configurable it is very configurable i pretty much recorded it in compressed i pretty much recorded it in compressed i pretty much recorded it in compressed format since a lot of the stuff is going format since a lot of the stuff is going format since a lot of the stuff is going to be going over to be going over to be going over youtube or on the internet or whatever youtube or on the internet or whatever youtube or on the internet or whatever it's going to sound compressed anyways it's going to sound compressed anyways it's going to sound compressed anyways but if you're doing some high-end maybe but if you're doing some high-end maybe but if you're doing some high-end maybe some other recording stuff where you some other recording stuff where you some other recording stuff where you really want to get the dynamic range and really want to get the dynamic range and really want to get the dynamic range and all that fun stuff out of the audio all that fun stuff out of the audio all that fun stuff out of the audio track you can set it to uncompress track you can set it to uncompress track you can set it to uncompress if you know you can get it within the if you know you can get it within the if you know you can get it within the less less than seven hours less less than seven hours less less than seven hours so the good the thing about the so the good the thing about the so the good the thing about the recording here that i need to tell you recording here that i need to tell you recording here that i need to tell you because i have ran this for enough time because i have ran this for enough time because i have ran this for enough time to figure this out to figure this out to figure this out when if you if it runs out of space it's when if you if it runs out of space it's when if you if it runs out of space it's just going to overwrite the oldest stuff just going to overwrite the oldest stuff just going to overwrite the oldest stuff that you already had that you already had that you already had it will not just stop recording and ask it will not just stop recording and ask it will not just stop recording and ask you what you want to do it's just going you what you want to do it's just going you what you want to do it's just going to automatically overwrite the old files to automatically overwrite the old files to automatically overwrite the old files okay okay okay so make sure you keep that in mind when so make sure you keep that in mind when so make sure you keep that in mind when you get this going the clock time here you get this going the clock time here you get this going the clock time here you can sync you can sync you can sync if yours off but i've already done this if yours off but i've already done this if yours off but i've already done this and my and my and my my system is already up to date my system is already up to date my system is already up to date you can also enable or turn or turn off you can also enable or turn or turn off you can also enable or turn or turn off depending which way you want to do depending which way you want to do depending which way you want to do the mute lock button so that when you the mute lock button so that when you the mute lock button so that when you press the button on the back of the press the button on the back of the press the button on the back of the transmitter it does not mute or unmute transmitter it does not mute or unmute transmitter it does not mute or unmute so that's all that's really in here the so that's all that's really in here the so that's all that's really in here the other thing i need to mention is that i other thing i need to mention is that i other thing i need to mention is that i found no safe way to found no safe way to found no safe way to quit or eject this road transmitter quit or eject this road transmitter quit or eject this road transmitter easily i found no way to easily do that easily i found no way to easily do that easily i found no way to easily do that so what you really need to do is you can so what you really need to do is you can so what you really need to do is you can either just unplug it or quit the app either just unplug it or quit the app either just unplug it or quit the app okay in this case i'm just gonna okay in this case i'm just gonna okay in this case i'm just gonna unplug it so now we'll click on this unplug it so now we'll click on this unplug it so now we'll click on this other transmitter it's really nothing other transmitter it's really nothing other transmitter it's really nothing different to see here different to see here different to see here but connect the second transmitter oh but connect the second transmitter oh but connect the second transmitter oh actually that's the receiver actually that's the receiver actually that's the receiver actually since we connect the receiver actually since we connect the receiver actually since we connect the receiver we'll go look at that there's nothing we'll go look at that there's nothing we'll go look at that there's nothing really different with the other really different with the other really different with the other transmitter except i didn't transmitter except i didn't transmitter except i didn't set that to do stuff so with the trend set that to do stuff so with the trend set that to do stuff so with the trend with the receiver plugged in here with the receiver plugged in here with the receiver plugged in here obviously you will see there is a lot obviously you will see there is a lot obviously you will see there is a lot more different options okay more different options okay more different options okay you can change the backlight setting to you can change the backlight setting to you can change the backlight setting to on off and here is the gain on off and here is the gain on off and here is the gain mode that i was talking about you can mode that i was talking about you can mode that i was talking about you can either set it to course gain which means either set it to course gain which means either set it to course gain which means you have three options you have three options you have three options if you set the three options there is if you set the three options there is if you set the three options there is low medium high low medium high low medium high you can set it to fine mode which like i you can set it to fine mode which like i you can set it to fine mode which like i said you can either plus or minus said you can either plus or minus said you can either plus or minus no not in one db you can plus or minus no not in one db you can plus or minus no not in one db you can plus or minus in in in three roughly three db increments okay three roughly three db increments okay three roughly three db increments okay three db increments for me i'm really three db increments for me i'm really three db increments for me i'm really just using it on mid just using it on mid just using it on mid on course gain i did i felt no need to on course gain i did i felt no need to on course gain i did i felt no need to change this change this change this so i'm just gonna leave it at i'm just leaving mine on mid okay so i'm just leaving mine on mid okay so i'm just leaving mine on mid okay so here's where you can set the mode you here's where you can set the mode you here's where you can set the mode you can either set the mode can either set the mode can either set the mode to split which means dual mono or you to split which means dual mono or you to split which means dual mono or you can click it and set it to merge can click it and set it to merge can click it and set it to merge records one stereo track okay records one stereo track okay records one stereo track okay there's a safety channel on here we there's a safety channel on here we there's a safety channel on here we don't really mess with that stuff don't really mess with that stuff don't really mess with that stuff backlight button backlight button backlight button no need to mess with that the battery no need to mess with that the battery no need to mess with that the battery percentage shows here percentage shows here percentage shows here date time here it's going here click date time here it's going here click date time here it's going here click connect a transmitter to connect a transmitter to connect a transmitter to to view recordings so let's turn this to view recordings so let's turn this to view recordings so let's turn this transmitter on transmitter on transmitter on and let's see what happens here obviously nothing happens because the obviously nothing happens because the obviously nothing happens because the recording like i said can only be recording like i said can only be recording like i said can only be exported from the transmitter through exported from the transmitter through exported from the transmitter through the application the application the application right now so let's go ahead and mess right now so let's go ahead and mess right now so let's go ahead and mess with that and see what happens plug the transmitter in here is the plug the transmitter in here is the plug the transmitter in here is the recording okay recording okay recording okay um you're probably not going to be able um you're probably not going to be able um you're probably not going to be able to hear too much of what's going on in to hear too much of what's going on in to hear too much of what's going on in here here here but jibber jabbering and stuff like that but jibber jabbering and stuff like that but jibber jabbering and stuff like that you can hear the marker right here see you can hear the marker right here see you can hear the marker right here see there's a marker right here when you there's a marker right here when you there's a marker right here when you press a button press a button press a button in the audio track if if you do audio in the audio track if if you do audio in the audio track if if you do audio and you do a lot of editing and and you do a lot of editing and and you do a lot of editing and where you disassociate the audio from where you disassociate the audio from where you disassociate the audio from the video then this the video then this the video then this stuff will probably help you for me i stuff will probably help you for me i stuff will probably help you for me i don't really use all that functionality don't really use all that functionality don't really use all that functionality and try to keep it as simple as possible and try to keep it as simple as possible and try to keep it as simple as possible um so when you do export this you can um so when you do export this you can um so when you do export this you can export this export this export this in either a wave or an mp3 and you can in either a wave or an mp3 and you can in either a wave or an mp3 and you can set it to set it to set it to i guess it looks like at max 48 i guess it looks like at max 48 i guess it looks like at max 48 kilohertz i don't know if you kilohertz i don't know if you kilohertz i don't know if you do to mp3 if it changes nope still 48 so do to mp3 if it changes nope still 48 so do to mp3 if it changes nope still 48 so you can either do wave mp3 or any of you can either do wave mp3 or any of you can either do wave mp3 or any of that and you can do bits per minute so that and you can do bits per minute so that and you can do bits per minute so you can do you can do you can do 32-bit float when you export from 32-bit float when you export from 32-bit float when you export from my understanding from all the technical my understanding from all the technical my understanding from all the technical documentation i've been reading i don't documentation i've been reading i don't documentation i've been reading i don't believe it actually believe it actually believe it actually records in 32-bit float but it does records in 32-bit float but it does records in 32-bit float but it does allow you to export in 32-bit float so allow you to export in 32-bit float so allow you to export in 32-bit float so make sure you keep that in mind make sure you keep that in mind make sure you keep that in mind if they do an update later maybe that if they do an update later maybe that if they do an update later maybe that can change i'm not sure if that can can change i'm not sure if that can can change i'm not sure if that can change with the software update change with the software update change with the software update something like that can change assuming something like that can change assuming something like that can change assuming the hardware is good enough to take it the hardware is good enough to take it the hardware is good enough to take it but keep that in mind if you're looking but keep that in mind if you're looking but keep that in mind if you're looking for a 32-bit float for a 32-bit float for a 32-bit float so you can listen to it on here you can so you can listen to it on here you can so you can listen to it on here you can you can you can you can skip to certain things or whatnot you skip to certain things or whatnot you skip to certain things or whatnot you know like for instance know like for instance know like for instance you can go back to the previous marker you can go back to the previous marker you can go back to the previous marker on here and we only have one marker so on here and we only have one marker so on here and we only have one marker so it's only going to keep going back it's only going to keep going back it's only going to keep going back but that is really what you get with the but that is really what you get with the but that is really what you get with the app so app so app so now let's talk about some of the fun now let's talk about some of the fun now let's talk about some of the fun stuff with this stuff with this stuff with this so um there this is actually a really so um there this is actually a really so um there this is actually a really great system they made great system they made great system they made huge strides and made great improvements huge strides and made great improvements huge strides and made great improvements it's like i said game changer it's like i said game changer it's like i said game changer the biggest thing about game changing or the biggest thing about game changing or the biggest thing about game changing or the biggest improvements i would say the biggest improvements i would say the biggest improvements i would say that they made on this system that they made on this system that they made on this system is the air baffles now you can actually is the air baffles now you can actually is the air baffles now you can actually turns and it's a turn lock type system turns and it's a turn lock type system turns and it's a turn lock type system great now it does not fall off great now it does not fall off great now it does not fall off it's a dual channel system that is great it's a dual channel system that is great it's a dual channel system that is great okay because now you don't have to use okay because now you don't have to use okay because now you don't have to use three four three four three four two different independent systems and two different independent systems and two different independent systems and get a mixer and get a mixer and get a mixer and balance audio and all that fun stuff balance audio and all that fun stuff balance audio and all that fun stuff it's actually one system it's actually one system it's actually one system okay that is great form factor is the okay that is great form factor is the okay that is great form factor is the same they have kept most of the good same they have kept most of the good same they have kept most of the good feature actually pretty much all the feature actually pretty much all the feature actually pretty much all the good features you can charge and use good features you can charge and use good features you can charge and use code hot shoe it links really fast 2. 4 code hot shoe it links really fast 2. 4 code hot shoe it links really fast 2. 4 gigahertz all that fun stuff gigahertz all that fun stuff gigahertz all that fun stuff and it's the monitoring on here and it's the monitoring on here and it's the monitoring on here actually shows you real-time monitoring actually shows you real-time monitoring actually shows you real-time monitoring awesome awesome stuff awesome awesome stuff awesome awesome stuff okay now let's talk about some of the okay now let's talk about some of the okay now let's talk about some of the what i would consider what i would consider what i would consider not so great stuff so what i found on not so great stuff so what i found on not so great stuff so what i found on here here here is that the gain control is still is that the gain control is still is that the gain control is still um if you're both channels cannot be um if you're both channels cannot be um if you're both channels cannot be controlled controlled controlled independently meaning if you're using independently meaning if you're using independently meaning if you're using dual mono dual mono dual mono the one gain control that you have on the one gain control that you have on the one gain control that you have on this transmitter is actually for both of this transmitter is actually for both of this transmitter is actually for both of those channels those channels those channels for instance if you have someone that for instance if you have someone that for instance if you have someone that just talks really soft just talks really soft just talks really soft and you have someone that's like yelling and you have someone that's like yelling and you have someone that's like yelling into the microphone that could probably into the microphone that could probably into the microphone that could probably cause an issue for you cause an issue for you cause an issue for you um you may need to try to figure out the um you may need to try to figure out the um you may need to try to figure out the best way to work that for you best way to work that for you best way to work that for you for your situation that is one downside for your situation that is one downside for your situation that is one downside to it to it to it the other downside to it that i found the other downside to it that i found the other downside to it that i found which is going to be obvious which is going to be obvious which is going to be obvious is that when you enable recording is that when you enable recording is that when you enable recording locally on the transmitter locally on the transmitter locally on the transmitter and you and you and you send the thing out if you send the thing out if you send the thing out if you when you use it normally where it sends when you use it normally where it sends when you use it normally where it sends the audio signal to the receiver and you the audio signal to the receiver and you the audio signal to the receiver and you record on transmitter obviously the record on transmitter obviously the record on transmitter obviously the transmitter dies faster transmitter dies faster transmitter dies faster and it's not something significant and it's not something significant and it's not something significant because most of the video things i used because most of the video things i used because most of the video things i used don't take that too long but i did don't take that too long but i did don't take that too long but i did notice the battery life on the one that notice the battery life on the one that notice the battery life on the one that was recording was recording was recording is significantly lower i want to i don't is significantly lower i want to i don't is significantly lower i want to i don't want to say random percentage but it was want to say random percentage but it was want to say random percentage but it was pretty noticeably lower than the one pretty noticeably lower than the one pretty noticeably lower than the one that wasn't recording that wasn't recording that wasn't recording so make sure you keep that in mind okay so make sure you keep that in mind okay so make sure you keep that in mind okay the other thing that now i'm just the other thing that now i'm just the other thing that now i'm just nitpicking nitpicking nitpicking is that it would be nice if you if they is that it would be nice if you if they is that it would be nice if you if they did include a did include a did include a digital cable um something like this digital cable um something like this digital cable um something like this with the system so um that's just with the system so um that's just with the system so um that's just nitpicking nitpicking nitpicking i think because maybe a lot of android i think because maybe a lot of android i think because maybe a lot of android users or whatnot maybe don't have too users or whatnot maybe don't have too users or whatnot maybe don't have too much usbc i don't know much usbc i don't know much usbc i don't know also the cost may go up a little bit or also the cost may go up a little bit or also the cost may go up a little bit or whatnot but that's pretty much what it whatnot but that's pretty much what it whatnot but that's pretty much what it really comes down to really comes down to really comes down to the other really big thing the other really big thing the other really big thing i really want to pick on is that the i really want to pick on is that the i really want to pick on is that the you have to use the app on the computer you have to use the app on the computer you have to use the app on the computer you you you the there's no iphone app or an ipad app the there's no iphone app or an ipad app the there's no iphone app or an ipad app or any of that that you can use to or any of that that you can use to or any of that that you can use to control the settings on here um you control the settings on here um you control the settings on here um you can't even can't even can't even download this on the iphone or an ipad download this on the iphone or an ipad download this on the iphone or an ipad i'm sure i'm sure i'm sure there's probably some way to emulate it there's probably some way to emulate it there's probably some way to emulate it or whatnot and you could use the cable or whatnot and you could use the cable or whatnot and you could use the cable this cable to plug it in but there's no this cable to plug it in but there's no this cable to plug it in but there's no way to get that i understand that they way to get that i understand that they way to get that i understand that they would have to build bluetooth in here would have to build bluetooth in here would have to build bluetooth in here and and and you would have to connect it over you would have to connect it over you would have to connect it over bluetooth or something like that to the bluetooth or something like that to the bluetooth or something like that to the phone or an ipad that may take up extra phone or an ipad that may take up extra phone or an ipad that may take up extra channels and stuff like that channels and stuff like that channels and stuff like that there may be another feature that may there may be another feature that may there may be another feature that may make it cost more and get that maybe if make it cost more and get that maybe if make it cost more and get that maybe if they had i don't know they had i don't know they had i don't know maybe a pro version or something that maybe a pro version or something that maybe a pro version or something that could be something useful could be something useful could be something useful but that's not too big of an issue but that's not too big of an issue but that's not too big of an issue because usually when you're because usually when you're because usually when you're when you're working really fast you when you're working really fast you when you're working really fast you don't you really on a computer just don't you really on a computer just don't you really on a computer just trying to set video settings and things trying to set video settings and things trying to set video settings and things like that like that like that there are basic things you can change on there are basic things you can change on there are basic things you can change on here here here for instance if you press both of these for instance if you press both of these for instance if you press both of these buttons on here at the same time for a buttons on here at the same time for a buttons on here at the same time for a holder for about three seconds you can holder for about three seconds you can holder for about three seconds you can change it from change it from change it from dual mono mode to stereo mode you can dual mono mode to

too nitpicking don't worry about that too nitpicking don't worry about that too much so much so much so i mean that's really it like i said it's i mean that's really it like i said it's i mean that's really it like i said it's been really great we've used it been really great we've used it been really great we've used it um i'll maybe i'll throw some audio um i'll maybe i'll throw some audio um i'll maybe i'll throw some audio things up in the end so this video right things up in the end so this video right things up in the end so this video right now is obviously now is obviously now is
