 Okay, so here is the RodeGo Wireless Mic System, a lot of parts. The first one, first item in this kit is the RodeGo Transmitter, it's got a built-in microphone as well as a 3.5mm port into which you could plug a lapel mic, also known as a lavalier mic. Item two is the receiver that is paired with the transmitter, so the way wireless microphone systems work is that you have a transmitter that receives physical input, that is to say sound waves and it converts those sound waves into electronic signals and then the transmitter as the name implies it transmits those electronic signals to a receiver and as its name implies it receives those electronic signals and it sends those signals to a recording device. So this receiver would have to be connected to a recorder of some kind, like a computer or a camera or a handheld or portable recorder. Item three is the carrying pouch for the receiver and transmitter. Item four are two USB cables, they each have a USB-C end and a USB-A end, these cables are for charging the receiver and transmitter. Item five is the black-to-black audio cable, more specifically these plugs are known as TRS plugs. TRS stands for tip ring sleeve, so here's the tip, here's the ring in between the two dark bands and the sleeve is the bottom part of the plug. These plugs transmit audio signals in one direction only. And then item six of the kit is this black gray audio cable. So this is a TRS plug and the gray end is a TRRS plug, so it's got a tip. Two rings in between three dark bands and then there's a sleeve at the end. So again these dark bands are not the rings themselves, they're the boundaries of the rings. TRRS plugs send audio signals in two directions. Okay and item seven is a USB adapter, you would use this cable to record to a computer in conjunction with the black gray cable. Item eight is the Apple Lightning adapter, again you would use this lighting adapter in conjunction with the black gray cable. The gray end would go into the lightning adapter and the black end would go into the receiver. Item nine is the splitter cable, to be honest, it can be tricky to use but in theory this cable would allow you to record and listen from the same device, the same recording device. Number ten is the fur windshield, this you pull it back and then put it onto the transmitter, you'll notice around the built-in mic there are two notches into which you can insert the protrusions from the fur windshield, it's good to push one, pull back the fur, pull one part in and then the other and press firmly down and in theory you should be able to hold it, it can be tricky and then you really only use this if you were recording outdoors. There we go, next to the windshield we've got the manufacturer's quick start guide right here and then number twelve is the plastic container and then these Velcro straps just go on the cables. So again to reiterate depending on which recording device you use you would use either one of these two cables, if you're recording to a camera for example that is most likely to have a dedicated input port, a 3.5 millimeter port then you would use the black black cable. Now if you're going to use a recording device that has a 3.5 millimeter port but that is probably not intended for input and is probably intended for output then you would use the black gray cable. Again you would insert the black end always into the receiver and then the gray cable would go either into the end of the USB adapter if you're recording to a computer or it would go into the plug, the female side of the lightning adapter if you're recording to an iOS device. Regardless you want to turn on the transmitter, the power button is on the bottom so press and hold and then the second light will be solid and the first light will blink if it's not paired with the receiver. So to turn on the receiver press the power button on its top and then the display will appear and then the two indicator lights from the transmitter will be solid, you can see on the display there's Rx and Tx, Rx is universal abbreviation for a receiver that's this device and then Tx is universal abbreviation for a transmitter which is this device. And on the bottom here is DB so that's a gain, so gain is change to volume, not volume itself, it's a boost, positive or decreased boost. So as I'm speaking here, I'm holding up to my mic you can see the, you should be able to see the volume meter maxed out, if it gets to the end the edge and it's bred that means it's speaking too loud, either too loud or the mic is too close or some combination of the two. So what you want to do is you want to place the transmitter maybe two-fifths away from the person's mouth so they could clip it onto their collar or the breast pocket and if they have a naturally lower voice, quieter voice you can toggle between three gain levels low, medium or high. So what I recommend is place the transmitter on the person of your subject, of the subject, get them to recite the alphabet and then just pay attention to the peak of the volume meter. If it's too high then you can reduce the gain as needed by pressing the DB button. Likewise if it's too soft you can boost it as needed. The ideal, you want the volume meter to stay in the green, not get into the yellow or the right or the red to the right end and that's really the road go in a nutshell. Now you can for example, like I mentioned, you can actually use it in conjunction with the camera, this belt clip here would go into the shoot mount of the camera. You could also connect this receiver to a portal recorder like the Zoom H4N but I'll save that demonstration for another video and that's the road go wireless mic system.
