Overview
With more powerful features that are easier to use than ever before, the purple RODE Wireless GO (Gen 3) system lets videographers, vloggers, and mobile journalists quickly and confidently record two on-camera personalities to a mobile device or camera and get professional sounding, broadcast-ready results.
Boasting secure Series IV 2.4 GHz digital transmission, easy operability, transmitters with built-in mics (lavalier mics available separately), and a dual-channel receiver, the system is ready to go at the press of a button; you can focus on getting the shot knowing that the Wireless GO is delivering quality audio at a range of up to 260 meters. The addition of 32-bit float backup recording eliminates digital clipping, providing an extra layer of security. There are no menus and no finicky dials, just simple power-on-and-go functionality and a bright, informative LCD screen. Use the Rode Central companion app to access a powerful feature set and extended customization of settings.
Third-Generation Upgrades
32-bit float recording: The enormous dynamic range provided by the 32-bit float backup recording on the transmitters means you never have to worry about digital clipping. Low-level recordings can be normalized to usable levels without adding noise.
Longer recording time: With 32GB of memory, each transmitter is capable of up to 40 hours of 32-bit float backup recording.
Upgraded mics: The built-in mics on the transmitters have been upgraded for improved clarity and intelligibility.
Locking 3.5mm mic inputs: The transmitters now sport locking 3.5mm input jacks for extra security when using external lavalier mics.
Intelligent GainAssist: RODE's intelligent GainAssist technology automatically sets the receiver's output levels to your camera based on how loud your subject is.
Extended range: The third-generation Wireless GO features updated Series IV wireless technology, providing a 260-meter wireless transmission range.
Headphone monitoring: With a high-power headphone amp built into the receiver, you can connect a pair of headphones to the 3.5mm output jack and monitor both of your transmitters as they record.
3.5mm TRRS output jack: The receiver's TRRS output jack allows connection of a third mic via this jack when using the system's USB output for recording.
Improved display: Enjoy improved clarity and definition from the receiver's upgraded display.
Dedicated recording buttons: Each transmitter offers a dedicated recording button, giving you complete control over when recording starts and stops.
Powerful Features
Clip each miniature transmitter to clothing, attach it to a belt, or slide it in a pocket; use it as a lavalier mic or operate it as a traditional bodypack transmitter with an external lav mic.
The receiver's minute form factor and integrated clip provide flexibility for easy mounting. Its bright, high-contrast display shows battery status, audio level, signal strength, and more.
Use the Rode Central companion app to unlock powerful features and device customization.
The Wireless GO can handle two transmitters at once, featuring the ability to switch between stereo or dual-mono output modes.
The Wireless GO receiver has a USB-C digital audio output for operation as a digital audio interface.
Extensive Customization Options
Always recording mode: When this mode is activated, the transmitter will start recording audio as soon as it is switched on.
Manual recording mode: In this mode, on-board recordings are started and stopped when you press the record button on the transmitter.
Off: Switching off the recording function means the transmitter will not record any audio.
Activatable input pads on the transmitters engage low-sensitivity mode to avoid distortion.
LED brightness adjustment for the transmitters allows optimal visibility in any shooting environment.
True Wireless Microphone Ready for Run-and-Gun
Equipped with a high-caliber, pre-polarized, omnidirectional lavalier built into the transmitter's compact housing, the Wireless GO (Gen 3) delivers quality audio without demanding a separate microphone.
The internal capsule's omnidirectional polar pattern ensures reliable audio pickup.
The transmitter packs in a 3.5mm TRS input with plug-in power, so you can connect most lavalier mics equipped with a locking 3.5mm TRS mini plug.
Sonically Solid and Secure
The Wireless GO system utilizes the 2.4 GHz frequency band to avoid the congested UHF spectrum.
Rode's optimized transmission algorithm empowers you with a line-of-sight range of up to 260 meters.
Rode's Series IV 2.4 GHz digital transmission incorporates 128-bit encryption for security and stability.
