Rode Stereo Video Microphone

Now videographers can use true 'studio' stereo recording techniques in the field with ease. The X/Y configuration with two high-resolution 1/2" condenser capsules enables the StereoVideoMic to capture the true ambience of the recording space, while still offering a high level of rear rejection and low noise. The built-in shock mounting system isolates the electronics and Stereo VideoMic capsule from its mount. It has a 3/8" thread shoe mount for easy mounting on a boom pole or stand. In addition to its 40Hz-20kHz response, there is a selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz available to minimize low end noise. The -10dB level attenuation (or PAD) allows recording of loud sound sources, such as live music or sports event. 

Product Features in Detail

High-quality stereo microphone
The RØDE 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
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.

Dialogue and directional applications
The Stereo VideoMic is an ideal microphone for capturing environmental and ambient sounds, as well as live music. For dialogue and directional applications the RØDE VideoMic and VideoMic Pro are recommended.

In-built shock mounting system
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.

Includes a 3/8" thread
Its standard sized shoe mount also includes a 3/8" thread in the base for easy mounting on a boom pole or stand.

Selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz
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.

-10dB level attenuation (or PAD)
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.
