How to make the RODE VIDEO MIC PRO working with Scarlet/Epic

[Matt Fleming]

Wil,
I mount my Rode on my Epic with the WC camera 1/4 20 hot shoe adapter. Works great.

Here's I usually do it Wil (crappy iphone pics, sorry for quality). Hope thats helpful!

 

[Will Keir]

Even for a scratch track to help syncing the masters from the recorder?

Sorry to keep repeating myself but button mics sound like crap. A powered Rode mic is the only option that is acceptable.

 

[Will Keir]

That actually seems acceptable. Where is the A box though?

BTW folks - RODE just announced new STEREO VIDEO MIC X...:

http://www.rodemic.com/microphones/stereovideomicx

Looks great and compact for on-camera work...

- all metal construction
- balanced (mini) XLR outputs
- independent XY capsules - each separately isolated from body

:sifone: Peter

 

[Bob Gundu]

Yeah it looks nice. It better be at $800.

 

[Jason Kraynek]

would it be the same for the new Rode videomicro? it only has a red a green wire though

 

[David Bourla]

Hot damn! It works!! Thanks!!

 

[Vincent SAVOY]

Thanks a lot Peter for this trick. (4 years later.. :blush5

 

[Pedro Ribeiro]

why is the sound so low?

I can confirm that this method works perfectly as I have done it three times with a RODE VideoMic Pro and RED DSMC cameras. Works like a charm

Has anyone tried a stock (not modified) RØDE VideoMic Pro in the stereo mini audio input on the DSMC2 Base Expander?

[Blair S. Paulsen]

I assumed it would be fine, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask around. Thanks fellow RedUsers.
