Rode VideoMic Pro Plus On-Camera Shotgun Microphone

Outstanding Pro Video Mic Gets Even Better

The RØDE VideoMic Pro+ is a new addition to the best-in-market on-camera category. It is a true shotgun microphone designed for use with camcorders, DSLR cameras and portable audio recorders as a source of primary and reference audio.

You want to elevate the audio quality of your video productions? It all starts with your mic selection. The Rode VideoMic Pro R+ takes Rode's successful VideoMic Pro R shotgun microphone and adds several new high-value features. You still get the Rycote Lyre shockmount, which does a superior job of isolating the mic capsule and electronics from vibrations that can cause rumble. But there's so much more. Instead of the Pro R's 9V battery power, the Pro R+ ships with a rechargeable Li-ion battery. And even though the lithium battery will power the mic for over 100 hours, if the power does get low, you can run the mic with two AA batteries! Even better, the Pro R+ incorporates digital switching to reduce post-production editing — with a two-stage highpass filter, three-stage gain control, HF Boost, and a Safety Channel to prevent clipping in the event of unexpected amplitude spikes.

• Ships with LB-1 Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery, Detachable 3.5mm TRS Cable, Micro USB Cable

Still with the best-in-class Rycote Lyre suspension system onboard, the VideoMic Pro+ improves on the existing VideoMic Pro capsule/line tube and windshield, plus boasts a host of new features.

Automatic Power Function (with plug-in power availability) is perfect for the run-and-gun shooter, automatically turning the microphone off when unplugged from the camera.

Built-in Battery Door makes replacing the battery a breeze - plus it won't get lost.

Power options the VideoMic Pro+ can be powered by the all-new and included RØDE LB-1 Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery, 2 x AA Batteries or continuously via Micro USB.

Digital Switching - will ensure the user has ultimate capture of the audio signal at the source, reducing post production and editing times.

The Digital Switching includes:

• 2-Stage High Pass Filter to reduce low frequencies such as rumble from traffic or air conditioning

• 3-Stage Gain Control, with +20dB function – designed to improve audio quality on DSLR or mirrorless cameras

• High Frequency Boost will boost high frequencies enhancing detail and clarity in the recording

• Safety Channel to help ensure the signal does not clip when unexpected spikes occur
