Use THIS To Record Separate Audio Tracks Into an iPhone | RODE SC6-L
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 тра 2021
- ▶︎ This is still a great audio interface, BUT check out the updated RODE AI-Micro version:
• Record ANY Two Mics In...
Easily record two separate (discrete) audio tracks into an iPhone with the RODE SC6-L - and also monitor your sound with headphones too. This is a great accessory for anyone wanting to record multiple mics into one device and it works with lots of apps including FiLMiC Pro.
PLEASE NOTE... By default the RODE SC6-L is in "combined" track mode, not "separate". All you need to do is use the RODE Reporter app (it's free) to change this setting of the SC6-L. Just plug it into your iPhone and open the Reporter app and go to settings to change it (then it will stay in that mode). I did this a while ago and always leave the SC6-L in the separate track mode, so I forgot to mention it. :)

Also, it's possible to configure the Rode SC6 audio input levels with the Reporter app with the "Low/Medium/High" input level presets (which isn't possible elsewhere). And turn direct monitor on/off (monitoring with or without latency), and the monitor level.
Very good video 👍
I can't tell how helpful this is to me, I need to record outdoor acoustic sessions and I was thinking "if I could capture my voice with a lav mic then I would have more control in the mixing"... and I thought that was impossible until I found your video. Thank you so much! :)
Excellent!
Thank you!!! Just recording Videos of my guitar playing &singing and wanted better audio recording without production work. Thanks for mentioning those details like trss, and the filmic app!!! Buying it! Great job!!!!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Can you hear the iPhone audio through the headphone jack? For example if you are using Zoom and need to hear the audio from that app. Great video. Thanks!
Does iPhone support to record 7 or more audio channels?
Cool! I ordered one of these two days ago in hopes of using it with two Rode NTG shotguns on booms.
Do you need the rode one? Can’t you just use a headphone splitter? Also does this work with the normal iPhone camera, not FilmicPro?
Third question, if you have a single mic on one side, and the wireless go 2 on the other side (with two transmitters) can you have 3 tracks? Or even more if you get more wireless rode mics?
Is there a way I can use the ai-micro for live stream videos with my Sony zv-10 camera
Would this set up work with duel wireless transmitters to one receiver, so in this case a shot gun plugged into one 3.5 and a rode 2 receiver on the other 3.5? So basically 3 mics into the two inputs?
Parabéns amigo ótimo registro tmj
Will the standard video capture app built into the iPhone recognize two different audio sources as you show here with Filmic Pro? Have you tried the Moment app?
It is app dependent and not all will work. I’ve only used Filmic Pro and the Rode app I need to test more, but Rode says it will work with the native camera app, GarageBand and Voice Memos, too.
apakah cliponnya bisa selain merek rode ya??
That’s great,
However i should link 2 different mics in the adapter,
So how about the wireless rode go 2
How i can make it work if i want split audio track?
I appreciate your advise.
Regards
If you have the Wireless Go II you can connect it the same way as the Wireless Go via a 3.5mm TRS to TRRS to the SC6-L - and then use with other mics. Or if you want to use both Go II mics you can simply use their SC15 cable and the receiver and send dual channel audio to the iPhone.
@@iphoneographers actually i think sc6-L will not work with wireless go 2 cause there is only one input to the transmitter with 2 mic’s do u have any ideas?
I tried it with camera sony m3
And it works fine
How I connect the trrs to the phone using filmic pro but it failed.
I appreciate your advise.
Regards
To get split track audio into the iPhone you can’t use just a standard cable setup with it. You have to use the SC15 adapter cable otherwise it’ll be a mono mix. Using the SC6-L will do split track but with two mics or mic systems. Using one Rode Wireless Go II would only go into the single channel. You have to use two systems to do that which is not really practical. Hope that makes sense.
Could I buy two pairs of RODE Wireless Go II and use this to effectively get the audio from 4 transmitters sent to my iPhone?
In other words, can I connect this device to two Wireless Go II Receivers?
Yes technically you could using Lightning to 3.5mm adapters. So then one set of mics would be on channel 1 (mono mix) and the second set would be on channel 2 (mono mix). So you could have discrete mic “groups” (each set of two mics) but not discrete tracks from all 4 mics. Haven’t tried this myself, but again it should work.
@@iphoneographers Thank you so much! Fortunately I just need crisp audio from a group of four people. I don't need the ability to edit their voices individually (: Purchased instantly.
When the file is exported its still a mono audio file. Is there a way to export it from filmic pro with dual audio files? So when you detach the audio in IMOVIE or other editing software you have two audio tracks to edit in post instead of one mixed mono stereo track?
Not sure I follow. If you record it split track and you have two audio sources then it would be left and right. Or if you just recorded one source/mic it would just be on one channel. And then so you would have access to either in post as long as you didn’t record two channels mixed together.
thanks so much for the video.. i have a question and would appreciate your answer. i just bought the rode sc6-L (i will be using the lavalier mics it comes with the kit) and i will record a podcast for 2 people. now my question is about the angle for the footage. i have three iphones and i want to have three different angles(on the first - me - and also of the both of us together) how can i do this? would really appreciate your help. thank you.
I’d do a close-up on you, then a close-up on your guest and then a master wide shot side angle of both of you.
thank so much for your answer and help. so would i use three iphones to record each angle (me on one iphone, my guest on the other iphone, and a wide angle on the third iphone)? many thanks@@iphoneographers
For future proofing probably better to buy the Rode AI Micro which is the same thing but with an interchangeable USB cord so you are not locked into lightning plug only and you can keep using it after apple stops using lightning.
I also know the Ai Micro autosenses between TRS and TRRS on the mic ports.
Yes, get the AI Micro now. I use it all the time. And like you say it works with both TRS and TRRS.
Rode AI-Micro is out in case anyone is interested. Looks similar to this device.
Yes it is very similar with some nice new updates. Will be making a video about it very soon!
Can you connect your set up between two phones
Haven’t tried that you would need some sort of splitter (or mixer) to make that work, which technically would be possible.
Always great to watch your videos! :)
So I know this is the wrong channel - but does anyone know an Android solution for monitoring with headphones?
Not the wrong channel! :) Lots of stuff I look at is cross compatible, but this device is not. However, there are USB-C adapters out there that offer headphone jacks monitoring. USB-C hub type accessories. Thanks for watching!
@@iphoneographers Thank you! But unfortunately I can't find anything comparable for android :( Do you? :)
Rode actually makes an SC6 that is all 3.5 mm analog i/o so you can get that and then get a USB-C to 3.5 mm to your phone and you’re good to go for multiple mics... amzn.to/3v6rFCH
@@iphoneographers This. Is. It. Thank! You! :)
@@iphoneographers could you use the SC6 and just use an Apple lightning to 3.5mm adapter to get the same thing as this higher priced $75 adapter?
Is the standard iMovie built into the phone or that comes standard with a macbook capable of recognizing the two different audio channels? Or do you need a more sophisticated program, like Final Cut to recognize that split channel audio for video editing.
I recorded my initial audio with two rode wireless go ii in the native video app on an iphone 12 mini for a test. In my camera roll, iMovie on my phone, and iMovie on my computer it was stereo, not one source coming out of left and the other coming out of right. Hence why i asked if I need a better editing software system that can handle the two split channels.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts as they would be greatly appreciated.
I actually don’t know. I’m not an iMovie user, but iMovie on Mac should be able to do split track audio. You could also try using LumaFusion on your phone or iPad. It’s possible though it was recorded as a mono mix instead of split track (essentially it should be recorded in stereo, meaning discrete tracks).
@@iphoneographers ok that is what I thought I recorded in, split track but I’ll have to double check. I am just getting to all set up for the first time and might be just mixing it up.
Sir is it support to usb condensor mic....?
No, the adapter is for analog audio input.
So, there is no way to record the internal and external mic by just using a external mic?
Not unless you do double system sound, otherwise the internal mic isn’t active when an external is plugged in.
Do you think it'll link a DJI Mic. I did see a comment on another channel that it didn't
It should. I haven’t used that particular one but I’ve used lots of other mics and other brands and other type of connectors including XLR and they all work. But just to be clear, I’m talking about using the AI Micro. They’re updated version.
@@iphoneographers Yes the AI-Micro - I can't see why it wouldn't work.
@@iphoneographers Awesome videos! Do you know if there is ANY way to get 2 wireless lavs into 1 receiver into an iPhone 13? DJI Mic does it but only merged - not with 1 mic on L and 1 on R channels? I think?
Sure, you can do it with the Rode Wireless Go 2 using Filmic Pro or other third-party apps that allow for split track/stereo audio input.
Could i use it from 1 phone audio to 2nd phone recording
Haven’t tried that before, but seems like it would be possible - most likely using adapters… Like a headphone out into this. Or HDMI out into a 3.5mm into this.
This Røde 2 mics adaptator needs to have a secondary Lightning port to be able to power the iPhone while recording. Pretty sure the iPhone battery alone is not enough to last for filming and recording more than an hour or two, depending on the version. Did you test it?
Have not tested that exactly, but my anecdotal experience is newer iPhones like the 11 or 12 series can easily last half a day, especially the Max versions. But that wouldn’t be a bad idea to include that in the future versions.
MagSafe is perfect because you charge the iPhone while using the lightning port for something like this.
@@derekkelly485 Indeed, but my iPhone 7 plus, an antiquity I grant you, does not have MagSafe.
i've got that Rode adapter and it works really badly with my iPhone XS, doesn't work at all a lot of the time, and distorts or only works with one input
maybe my Rode is broken, but i was really disappointed when i got it.
Interesting to hear. This has worked flawlessly for me. Maybe try using a different app? Or yeah, Rode is good at replacing broken gear.
@@iphoneographers i got it primarily for Filmic Pro, but it even caused Trouble with the Rode Recorder App
Sounds like you may have gotten a bad unit I would return it.
What tripod is this?
It’s from Apexel… amzn.to/3wgUMWD
This is for ios and for android?
No, but the brand new version is… ua-cam.com/video/ei-KacFfzR8/v-deo.html
How about 3 or more mics?
Use a mixer and then feed that signal into the adapter (but you can only get two discrete channels otherwise they’ll be mixed). This is an updated version of the adapter btw… ua-cam.com/video/ei-KacFfzR8/v-deo.html
@@iphoneographers that’s exactly what I want is mixed stereo. But what I really want is to use my Universal Audio Apollo 8p For the high-quality unison mic preamp.
ok
Why oh why did they choose to use TRRS for the mic in?
Most of their mics don't come with one out of the box, so that's another expensive cable they will offer to sell you. 😔
It’s TRS, but you have to adapt that to TRRS for the iPhone. Otherwise it works natively with traditional cameras.
@@iphoneographers Thanks. 😎 I have 5 Rode mics (2 video micros, a videopro, 2 wireless gos), all with TRS cables. The SC6-L has a headphone out, so the TRRS requirement for this dongle seems so redundant.
I understand how mics designed to plug directly into phones are TRRS and *some* users might get caught out if they had gone for TRS input on the dongle, but it's disappointing that Rode made a design choice that will still be a frustration for some.
Yeah I see what you’re saying. There’s never a perfect device. Always some work arounds to do. :)
Holy crap $80
For that price you might as well purchase an external recorder
Yeah for higher-end projects I always do double system sound out to a Zoom or Tascam recorder or similar, but this is really the best option I’ve found for keeping it in the camera. Sometimes that’s the best way to go depending on what you’re shooting.
Will external audio sync easily with iPhone footage. I have a Tascam DR 40x coming in the mail. I have a shotgun mic to use with it.
It was on sale open box for a little over $100.
I though I saw someone say there are syncing issues because the iPhone has variable frame rate. So the audio might drift when syncing it?
@@RamenKing2023 I’ve since then purchased an external audio recorder. Life changing especially with upgraded boom mics
