Every Test You Wanted to Know: RODE Wireless Go II

RØDE has done it again with their super popular Rode Wireless GO series. This time the Rode Wireless Go II packs an incredible punch that essentially makes it relevant for years to come. While the sound is slightly different, the two stand out features you need to know about is its clean internal recording capabilities, so that you never lose a piece of audio ever again on a shoot, and the firmware updates that could potentially increase functionality and features. With these two features alone, RØDE has affectively bulldozed the market by pulling no punches; and with only a modest $100 price difference from its younger brother. Sit back, relax, and check out all the tests to see if the new RODE Wireless go 2 will fit your production needs! ============== AFFILIATE LINKS ============== Gear I use and talked about in this episode.
