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 853 feet. What’s more, 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, showing you what you need to see. When you’re ready for more, use the Rode Central companion app to access a powerful feature set and extended customization of settings.
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 and now feature the same ones as the Wireless PRO models for improved clarity and intelligibility with less risk of overloading at the capsule, helping to ensure the cleanest possible audio at the point of capture.
Locking 3.5mm mic inputs: the transmitters now sport locking 3.5mm input jacks for extra security when using external lavalier mics (external mics available separately).
Intelligent GainAssist: RODE’s intelligent GainAssist technology automatically sets the receiver’s output levels to your camera based on how loud your subject is, eliminating the guesswork and freeing you up to focus on making great content. Of course, you can choose to manually adjust the output levels with a 30 dB range at your disposal. Gain presets for various cameras are also available.
Extended range: the third-generation Wireless GO features updated Series IV wireless technology, providing a whopping 853′ wireless transmission range from the transmitters to the receiver compared to the 656′ maximum range of the Wireless GO II. It also offers increased signal strength in crowded wireless environments. Plus, the system is designed to run both transmitters without affecting the range performance.
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 means you can connect a third mic via this jack when using the system’s USB output for recording. The additional mic could be a headset mic or a lavalier that supports TRRS connectivity.
Improved display: enjoy improved clarity and definition from the receiver’s upgraded display. This makes it easier than ever to check your levels and see the recording status and other key information immediately.
Dedicated recording buttons: each transmitter offers a dedicated recording button, giving you complete control over when recording starts and stops.
Thanks to the receiver’s minute form factor and integrated clip, it provides the flexibility to be easily mounted on a camera, in a sound bag, or to a mobile device. Its bright, high-contrast display shows battery status for the receiver and transmitter, audio level, signal strength, and more.
Use the Rode Central companion app (Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android compatible) to unlock powerful features and device customization—onboard transmitter recording, configurable safety track recording in dual mono mode, file playback and export, and more.
Since the Wireless GO can handle two transmitters at once, it features the ability to switch between stereo or dual-mono output modes. This enables each transmitter, and therefore each subject, to be recorded to a separate channel. Alternatively, signal from both transmitters can be mixed together and recorded identically to left and right channels. Use the app to activate safety track recording (-10 dB on the right channel).
In addition to the traditional 3.5mm TRRS analog output for headphone monitoring or camera connection via the included SC2 TRS to TRS cable, the Wireless GO receiver has a USB-C digital audio output for operation as a digital audio interface. This can be connected to a computer or mobile device with the supplied SC22 USB-C to USB-C cable or to the Lightning port of an iOS mobile device via the supplied SC21 Lightning cable.
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. Existing recordings will remain on the unit until manually deleted using Rode Central.
Activatable input pads on the transmitters engage low-sensitivity mode to avoid distortion when dealing with loud talkers.
LED brightness adjustment for the transmitters allows optimal visibility in any shooting environment.
The internal capsule’s omnidirectional polar pattern ensures reliable audio pickup, even if mic placement is less than ideal; your subject’s voice will be captured with clarity, intelligibility, and consistency.
Already have an external lav? 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 (such as Rode’s own Lavalier II, available separately), and still enjoy the convenience of the Wireless GO.
The 3.5mm TRS external mic input passes wideband audio along to the internal mic preamp, which provides requires no manipulation of settings.
Courtesy of Rode’s optimized transmission algorithm, the Wireless GO (Gen 3) empowers you with a line-of-sight range of up to 853 feet, and it bolsters signal dependability to mitigate drop-outs in crowded short-range environments such as retail stores, malls, office buildings, and hotels.
Rode’s Series IV 2.4 GHz digital transmission incorporates 128-bit encryption for security, stability, and hassle-free operation while bypassing the frustration of dealing with licenses and frequency mandates. Go anywhere in the world with the Wireless GO; it automatically gives you a strong signal no matter the scenario.
Note: For optimal performance from this 2.4 GHz system, users are encouraged to maintain as direct a line of sight as possible between the transmitter and receiver.
Using the Wireless GO with Rode Connect is also ideal for podcasting applications where you require the freedom of wireless audio, from recording interviews to casual podcasting setups.
Rode Connect allows two Wireless GOs to be connected to a single computer. Each transmitter can be allocated to its own channel for a total of four separate wireless audio streams, each with an individual level meter as well as solo and mute buttons. The Wireless GO III can also be used in conjunction with the NT-USB Mini within Rode Connect.
