Just bought the NTG and previously purchased the DJI Wireless system setup. I"m definitely gonna try this set up with The DJI wireless mics when I boom the NTG . Thank you for this tutorial. I didn't even realize that was a possibility. Great Job.
This is by far my favorite way to film interviews. Since I travel A LOT for my projects this "system" is a game changer especially since the Wireless GO 2 records the audio from the NTG in a WAV file regardless of the transmission connectivity. Good luck with the DJI set up and let me know how it turns out.
I also use this setup for run-and-gun filming, and it works really well. The only problems I've faced have been from both handling and wind noise (even with a Rode Dead Cat attached), so I now have it mounted in a small sized Rycote Supershield. It works really well outside on windy days, and the lyre mount has eliminated the handling noise. Not cheap at an additional £/$300, but it's an incredibly light, compact and versatile setup.
Great video! Quick question: When I use method with my Panasonic G85, the audio is only recorded to the left channel. I know I can fix this in post, but am I missing something obvious?
Check to see if your WirelessGo mics are in stereo (which I’m guessing they are in stereo) or mono. If the mic is in mono then either the cable or the audio port on the camera is bad. Hope this helps.
Hi, I've been eyeing the Videomic NTG since announcement and specifically for a setup like this. I want to use this for recording film dialogue and the one feature that intrigues me is the safety channel. My question is how does having a safety channel on the mic itself affect the safety channel on the Rode Wireless Go II? If you turn the safety channel on the NTG on but leave the Wireless Go's off does it work? and vice versa? I'm just confused as to how those two features interact and what kind of file that results in when it comes time for post production. Thank you for your time.
🔥🔥🔥 video bro. Very informative and detailed. This really answered all my questions and showed me exactly how to execute this wireless setup. Even the details you highlighted about the audio on the the mics and the camera helped me a lot.
There is a slot on the bottom of the VideoMic NTG that is the same size as the clip on the WirelessGo 2 transmitters. You simply slide the clip of the transmitter into the slot on the back side of the VideoMic NTG; that is how it is shown in the thumbnail for this video. Hope this helps.
@@42Pros what I also really appreciate in your creativity is how you attach the RødeNTG shock mount to the Røde RM5 Stand Mount. If I was to try this out on a boom pole would you say that you feel confident that the RødeNTG would stay on that RM5 mount securely enough to use as a boom
Do you use the safety channel on the wireless go for one interviewee? It’s an extra level of backup in my experience so I’d like to know if you’ve used it before
Hi! Do you boost your audio volume in post? Because when I recorded audio with simillar setup (ntg + go - it wasn't plugged into the camera, wireless go was used as recorder) audio sounded a bit silent compared to your audio. I had gain on the mic set to 11. I had plugged headphones into reciever and distance between micophone and actor was about 70 cm.
I’m going to assume that the NTG’s gain was set to 11 since you didn’t plug the receiver into a camera. With that said, the volume of the receiver (that you listen to with your headphones) that you hear will be based on the receiver’s output volume (that usually goes to your camera) which is the “volume” on the receiver. This volume setting will hardly ever match the input volume of the recorded audio. In order to record good audio to the TX internally, you will have to rely on the gain input meter/signal bar (green/yellow/red bar) that is viewable on the RX. With that said, just about 100% of the time I’ll use a noise removal plugin/effect, a compressor and some volume adjustments at a minimum to help with the volume of the talent that is speaking. I have another video regarding this set up that has a screen shot of some of my audio effects that I use in FCP X. Hope this helps.
@@42Pros yes, but I claim that the audio is a bit silent based on listening to the final recording on pc. In compatison to the audio from the intro of your video for example, my audio is simply not that loud.
The RM5 mic clip (which is what the VideoMic NTG is mounted to) is a standard 5/8" thread that can mount onto a variety of poles and mic stands, which is what I used. It also has a 3/8" to 5/8" adapter for mounting purposes. The RM5 is not actually designed for this type of use but it was something that I had to do in a pinch and I haven't changed the set up since. Works well though. As far as a true boom pole it really depends on what your budget is. What I use is a standard weighted mic stand with the RM5. Hope this helps.
I don’t know personally but from what I can tell it should work. DSLR Video Shooter just uploaded a video about that mic and his reviews are great. I would check it out if you have time.
Thanks for sharing. Can you tell me if you use the foam cover on the mic for interviews / boom overhead videos? Or when should I use the foam? Thanks alot
I usually do not use it for indoor interviews when it is boomed. I do use the foam cover and a dead cat style wind muff when I use it as an on-camera mic. Hope this helps.
i have done this exact same setup only with the deity d3 pro and the Comica cmv-vm20 and both mics get terrible interference. Like a bad buzz, do you ever get this with the NTG seeing its essentially the same mic as the others? thank you
I have not had any issues with interference with this setup. Here is a link to a video that has zero processing to the in camera audio. As you’ll here throughout the video that it’s a very clean setup. ua-cam.com/video/Qz_5-EdRN2E/v-deo.html
Did you ever find a solution? I was testing an old Rode shotgun mic and same thing with the interference. Not sure if its the connector plating or shielding.
@@TalksInTransit1 yes you can use this wireless shotgun mic setup and the 2nd wireless mic as a backup/lapel mic simultaneously. Just remember to have the receiver set to ‘stereo’ so that the 2 wireless mics will be separated (left and right channels).
I've just ordered the NTG to pair with my Wireless Go Pro. I'm a little confused about one part. You used the back of the mic to make your initial audio adjustments to where you wanted it. But when you hooked the receiver to the camera, you changed the db level to make your audio louder in camera. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of adjusting it on the back of the mic or am I missing something? I know there have been changes (Wireless Pro for one) since this video came out. What about the other settings for the NTG mic. How exactly do they work? Thank you.
The adjustment dial on the back of the NTG is to set the INPUT GAIN (or signal strength) for the Wireless Go II's transmitter/mic. If you have that too hot (too loud) then the audio will get brittle and distort. The db adjustment on the receiver was to set the internal audio of the camera so that I can get as close to perfect in-camera that I possibly can to speed up my work in post. When you get your mic, take the time to set it up like I demonstrated and simulate an interview (record a short clips of you talking). Then, use the NTG's "volume dial" and set it higher to the point where the Wireless Pro's receiver displays the signal bar peaking well into the red (over driving the input) and record another interview clip and then play back the 2 recordings and listen to the difference in the audio. It will make MUCH MORE sense. This technique is called setting your 'gain structure' in live performance sound production (front of house, concerts and such). It helps with getting the best signal-to-noise ratios that make for really clean audio.
Not sure - I think you need a mic that doesn’t require phantom power (has its own battery). Not sure if you can power up a mic off the lav battery alone. It’s designed to tap into your much larger camera battery
Is there also a difference between the quality when using the ntg videomic connected with the go vs connected the ntg videomic with a long cabel directly to the camera?
@@42Pros one last question. Do you put onboard recording on “backup” or “always”? Or do you keep it off? And do you turn on the safety channel since it’s merged?
Hi.. I have a question. Im using the Rode Go 2, with a Rode NTG-2, and connected to a AMS-24. Im using this to cut out the need for a cord, and making it easy to move around. The problem is I have to boost everything to get sound. Even when boosted to the highest settings the sound is low, and I still have lots of static. Any suggestions on what i should do, or why this doesn't work? When I just plug up a XLR everything works fine, or if I just unplug the shotgun mic the Rode Go works fine, but for some reason it doesn't work well together.
Any tips what transmitter and wireless headphone/earbud combo to use when you’re trying to hear your voice like a normal podcast when shooting? I have been having latency issues and it’s so hard to find something that works without half-a-second lag. Is this impossible? Because I don’t want to look like a weirdo with wired headphones
Depends on your camera. Some cameras have different audio monitoring settings, and one of which is to “monitor live” or as it is happening, like a podcast. Without knowing your set up, it’s hard to troubleshoot the issue. I hope this helps.
I don't think so BUT I would definitely reach out to Rode's customer service for more information. That mic was designed to record VO/vocals and musicians without having the need of an interface; XLR and usb connectivity. If you can, reply again with what you find out from Rode.
@@42Pros I contacted them, and this was their reply: "Hey there, it's not possible to connect the two because the NT1 5th Generation requires P48 phantom power, where as the Wireless PRO can only supply plug-in power." Do you think we can develop a workaround? 😊
Yes but you will need to get the Rode SC7 adapter cable for the receiver (not the transmitter) to use with your computer. I have used this set up as well and it sounds great. Be sure to use Bluetooth headphones or ear buds so that there will not be an echo. Hope this helps.
It depends on the project. If it’s a personal project then I probably would use mono only, if it’s a paid project, I have used both transmitters in stereo (which provides 4 audio files if needed; 2 recorders/transmitters and the left/right in camera mix. The mono version for my personal videos still has 2 different audio files even in mono, the recorder/transmitter and the in camera. I used mono in this tutorial because it’s easier for the viewers to see the signal bar on the receiver.
The VideoMic Pro should work the same as the VideoMic NTG but you would need to test out the gain (volume) settings with both of those to find a good starting point. Be sure to keep the input gain (volume) going to the WirelessGo at a level that doesn’t peak to easily (keep the signal bar near the green/yellow line) so that you get the best audio quality. Hope this helps.
If you are just starting out this would be a great option to have BUT if you want to grow your production level to the highest quality then you would need to get a good recorder with 32bit float recording. Definitely check out Curtis Judd’s channel for quality recorders for filming. Hope this helps.
I read they have a firmware update where they have the more budget $100 shotgun that can do the same thing? Do you know anything about that by chance? I also have an audio Technica shotgun. It's an XLR but I can get an adapter. Do you think it would work with that?
Yes, and the Rode VideoMic Go II can be used like the NTG was used in this video. Regarding the XLR shotgun mic, if it does not have an internal power source then it would need phantom power and this set up would not work; to be honest I haven’t heard of any adapters for an XLR mic that allows for this type of wireless transmission. Hope this helps.
That's 2 totally different types of mics, XLR vs 3.5mm. If your camera (or audio recorder) has XLR audio inputs then the NTG mics are optimal. If you use a mirrorless/dslr type camera with a 3.5mm audio port then the VideoMic NTG would best suited for those cameras. Hope this helps out.
It’s actually a bottom weighted mic stand that you can get at a music store, B&H or Amazon. The NTG mic is mounted onto a Rode mic holder that has the 3/8 and 1/4” adapter to mount onto the stand. Hope this helps out.
It's a standard weighted microphone stand that I have had for years. I think it was roughly $70 about 10 years ago. Sorry that I can't help out with a specific model number but you can do the same thing with an unweighted stand if you use a sand bag to hold it down while fully extended. The Rode RM5 is what the VideoMic NTG is mounted to; the cold shoe mount slides in the slot of the mic clip.
If you have the adapter cable for the lighting port then -18db should be a good medium setting on he WirelessGo. The phone has decent auto settings for volume.
