- UPDATE: BUYER BEWARE. While I was happy with this mic's performance while it was working, it just stopped working a few months after warranty. I asked Rode if there was anything they could do to help, and they essentially said since I was out of warranty, there was no option except to buy another mic since these aren't meant to be repaired. The mic did not get any stressful use, and was not exposed to the elements. I have used it indoors, around my house, on basic personal projects. A disappointing ending to an otherwise promising product.
Anyone have suggestions for alternative products?
Rode, your customer service accused me of threatening behavior when I said I would report these events in this forum, and eventually hung up on me while I was still speaking. I can't help but think that there might have been some other way forward.
What's the alternative? Risk the same problems on the same model? Upgrade to the Rode II for $500?
Here's how to connect your Rode Wireless Go to your Zoom H4n:
1.) Plug Rode Transponder into EXT MIC input on the back of the Zoom.
2.) Press Input Button (left hand, front of unit) so MIC button is lit red. Make sure you have MIC selected. NOT 1 and / or 2.
4.) Press REC button once, until it flashes. This means the recording channel is ARMED and ready to record. This allows you to check sound levels without recording.
5.) Speak into mic. Adjust sound levels using REC LEVEL button on right hand side of Zoom. -6db is usually good.
6.) Press REC button a SECOND time. Time code will start running. You are now recording.
7.) To PAUSE recording, push REC button 3rd time.
8.) To STOP recording and start a new track, push REC button 4th time.
AAHH... I was connecting mine to the headphone/line jack - no wonder it wouldn't work! Really well done, concise tutorial. Thank you very much for doing it!
You're welcome. I really had to laugh when I realized where the input was. Glad I could help. :)
Thanks so much !! Been looking for a video like this all day, finally found exactly what I needed here. Quick and helpful ! Keep it up
Thank you so much. This was super helpful - I've always wanted to connect a Zoom recorder to a wireless set-up! Great video.
Glad it was helpful!
Short and to the point. Love the A/B audio example w/indicator. Perfect.
Thank you! Really helpful! Straight to the point and exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks for the review on the rody microphones 🎤
I had no idea you could do this. Thanks!
Exactly what I needed! You saved my video shoot!!
Exactly what I needed! Thank you!!
This will solve the question I had on monitoring sound, zoom didn't even enter my head. Thanks
:: smacks head :: I didn't even know that input was hiding there :D I was going to go out and buy the XLR adaptor, so thanks for saving me a bit of money!
That is *exactly* what I was going to do too! 😄 I should read more manuals. I had the H4n for probably five years maybe longer. And I first found that jack a day or two before I made this tutorial.
So what was the title "BARELY USED AND BROKEN" for ?
Thanks really helped. It worked with my Boya-WM4 Pro
With the vxlr+ adapter to 3.5 can i connect 2 rode go mic on the bottom? Also to my android or camera to record directly with audio? Would be appreciated your help...would love to use my rodes in a church christmas play.
Any idea why I get noisy feedback? I’m using this same setup!
Perfect
THANK YOU!!!!! Cant believe I didnt see that!!
Don't feel bad, both my wife and I thought it was a small mounting port or something for some proprietary Røde mount or something!
great set up! can I still record seamless if i have "No" Sd card in the Zoom H4n?
I need to run at least 2 rode wireless go into a simple mixer. Can you run the transmitter into the xlr combo jack if I use a 1/4" to 3.5mm jack?
I think so. But you need the converter.
Why doesn't it work when using a 3,5mm to XLR cable for the XLR input?
Can using audio from Zoom H4N send to TX Rode and send to camera?
Thank you great tutorial to the point.
Since the internal mic is a pair mics, can we put stereo mic to ExtMic port?
So this is way better than just using the rose kit on its own?
What cable do you use to connect the transmitter to the recorder? TRS or TRRS cable?
Heyo, Im using the Zoom H1n with this setup but getting crazy interference from the cable. I can move the cable around to quiet the interference but it’s not reliable. Any suggestions?
I also use the Zoom H1n + Rode Wireless Go and experience the same issue. I want to find a solution as well.
Can I connect the zoom H4n headphone jack to the transmitter to make my zoom H4n wirelessly transmit?
hi we use this and now get a buzzing interference noise any idea how we can get rid of it
Have you tried replacing the cable?
Is there any way to record multiple channels simultaneously with that Zoom Mic? I.e. have one using the main Mic of the zoom and then another using the wireless go?
I don't think so since the Ext Mic cancels out the internal mic signal which the
wireless go ii is plugged into.
Be careful guys.. any wireless mic could interfere between the wireless mic and the zoom frequency.. that could make annoying digital noise into the mic
Exelent!! Thanks..
Rodee???
is this the same set up for using the Hn4 PRO
I don't know, as I don't have one of those.
Can I improve the sound by connecting to pc and using Voicemeeter?
Dunno. Haven’t ever used that program.
You have to press record twice on the h4n?
Yes. Once to arm the track, and a second time to start recording.
@@horacechincer that seems a bit odd... The Zoom H1 isn't like that and I'm sure I would have some total bonehead moments with that.
Yeah its really f*cking stupid.
Thank you. I'm on a tight budget about to shoot a wedding and I have to lav the officiant That should work just fine
_"Roady"_ 😂 It's just pronounced _Road_
Hello, can i maybe use 3 wireless mics to H4n? one as you showed and 2 with xlr adapter?
I don't know. I only have one wireless mic. I think this would be a question for Rode.
@@horacechincer thank you for your time! :) i figure i could connect 2 mics to camera and one to zoom
