The third generation of the Wireless Go wireless microphone platform, the Røde Wireless Go (Gen 3) is billed as ‘the perfect companion for creators looking to elevate their content with pristine wireless audio’.
The transmitter features built-in omnidirectional microphones and the same design and upgraded preamp circuitry as found in the Røde Wireless Pro system for recording clear and intelligible speech from all around while minimising the risk of plosives and other audio artifacts.
With its 32-bit float recording allows users to capture audio directly to each transmitter without clipping or being too quiet – both can be recovered in post. This technology ensures that users have a pristine backup of their audio, even when recording in the most challenging and dynamic environments. Each of the transmitters also feature a dedicated recording button for starting and stopping recordings, and more than 40 hours of onboard memory.
For creators who’d prefer to record straight to camera, the Wireless Go has a suite of features designed to make this as seamless as possible, with little-to-no editing required in post. At its core is Røde’s GainAssist technology, which uses intelligent algorithms to dynamically balance audio levels on-the-fly without the fluctuations typically found in a raw recording. GainAssist is available in two modes – Auto and Dynamic, the latter of which produces a well-balanced signal while retaining more of the nuanced dynamics of recording. Alternativey, users can turn the feature off to rely on manually adjusting the 30dB of output gain control. Wireless Go also features a safety channel that records a second copy audio track at a lower level, protecting audio from being lost to hot signals.
Wireless Go (Gen 3) features both digital (USB-C) and analogue (3.5mm TRRS) outputs, allowing users to record wireless audio directly into a camera, phone, laptop, tablet or other device. It can also be paired directly to a range of other Røde Series IV compatible products, such as the RødeCaster ProII and Duo, the recently released RødeCaster Video, and other wireless receivers in the Series IV line-up.
The Wireless Go also marks the return of Røde’s wireless form factor, with its integrated clip design that allows for quick and easy attachment to belts, collars, clothing and cold shoe mounts. This design combined with its flexible connectivity options make the Wireless Go as at home shooting with a DSLR or mirrorless camera as it is in a smartphone recording rig, USB microphone set-up or used as a field recorder.
In addition to timeless black and white, the Wireless Go comes in a range of finishes, including the vibrant red, orange, green, purple, pink and blue options, and more subdued cobalt, clay, lilac, stone, rose and moss.
To coincide with the launch of the Wireless Go, Røde is also releasing a dedicated charging and travel case accessory – the Charge Case+. This is a compact case for the Wireless Go (Gen 3) that keeps the system safe and secure when storing or on the road. It features an integrated battery that delivers two full recharges for up to 21 hours of use and allows simultaneous data access to the complete system for transferring recordings, adjusting settings and updating firmware. The Charge Case+ is available separately.
