You think you know me

[XUnknownX001]

holy shit, you look like stevie richards!

[vosalinasmedia]

@XUnknownX001 Michael Manna is Stevie Richards' real name.

[freerunsenna14]

whats wrong with your voice?

[rbvo]

If you are hoping to use an on-board mic -- whether it be the cam's built-in mic or a Rode VideoMic -- when recording anything more than about 3 feet away, you are out of your mind. The Rode is good for REFERENCE audio (usually better than the cam's built-in mic). But if you're doing something professional, you'd want to sync it up with audio recorded much closer, using something like an H4N and a lav or boom mic or something similar, and used the sync'd audio, not the on-board/Rode audio.

will this mount on a canon vixia HF M30?

[OscarWestrup]

@IsaacGolle if that camera has a 3.5mm jack plugin for a microphone than it's an option to mount the mic on

[schooler55]

Im expecting my mic in the mail this weekend! Nice hair by the way

[saudiwoow]

I saw you on XXL channel 5 years ago

[RayGuy]

[Eniyi04]

[SuperWario094]

[MrLukasDiSparrow]

best review Ive seen! Great!

[AintCominHome]

Very cool. I'm going to try it with my iPhone 4 :)

[JKIProductionz]

i just got this mic for my canon vixia hf s200 and there is a lot of noise (just as much as with the built in mic). is there some particular setting i need? please help!!!!

[h2soccergod]

what's the best external mic for canon 7d to record concert someone like Adele

[soupsoup2006]

Is a hissing sound in the background something normal for a Rode Videomic? I just bought one and the hissing sound is louder than what im saying. (Rode settings were on 10db)

[comemysock]

wow, edge is doing reviews now?

[senorkasper]

Are you sure it is not 'low pass' position?

[mejirogymfriesland]

nice pool,.. palmtrees, sun,.. thats life! you want to change?

[ableedingcorpse]

Whoa, It's Stevie Richards!! Great review of the Rode, I'm considering getting one.

[PrAnKsTaRRz]

can you attach this to a dslr?? like the Canon Rebel t2i

[T4ShowVideos]

@PrAnKsTaRRz yes

[LieutenantRice]

@PrAnKsTaRRz yes

[Terjay]

How would it fare in windy conditions with a "dead cat" on it?

[jackdelamare]

This helps a lot, thanks!

[a2wOzzy]

Great job again! I like that these are in real applications and not just some studio environment. Hope all is well, keep it up. -Ozzy-

[emillio94]

Awesome!Love your videos.

[Daffney2010]

Nice job Michael! Sounds amazing inside and out by the pool.

[measuringstick]

suprisingly clear at 50feet

[WeirdRicky]

Sounds really good great video.

[antftw]

Mouse pad. I need it now.

[mlh418]

good test..

[DizzyDougTV]

Sounds like a champ outdoors. Inside it doesn't handle the room well as I would like it too.

Can't wait to hear it on a day with less wind.

[T4ShowVideos]

Yeah, indoors had a really hollow sound.

[ambroseellis08]

@DizzyDougTV its the way how the rooms acoustics are. Theres probably nothing on the walls due to sound.

[ezrawwedp]

WOW! when the wind dies down it still sounds amazing as 2 feet away. Looks like a really awesome mic.

[Modview]

Sound Quality = ok, Long-distance recording = great

[AWRY13]

pretty cool

[dog5244]

Looks to me like thats one hell of a mic!

[Jermu123]

Not bad at all.

[Rat5]

i couldnt really hear a difference...

[brandonwhatitdo]

seems to help a lot

[thefriedishow]

For german conditions!

[thefriedishow]

Wooow! Cool mansion!!

[missydogster]

What mansion?

[thefriedishow]

For german conditions the house is very nice! Maybe mansion was not the right word for that! Sorry.

[ron6010]

awesome!!
