RØDE releases VideoMicro II

Posted on Dec 5, 2022

The RØDE VideoMicro II delivers professional-grade sound quality in a sleek design

RØDE has released the VideoMicro II, the follow-up to its best-selling on-camera shotgun microphone. The VideoMicro II is a professional-grade condenser microphone that promises high sound quality. Using a supercardioid polar pattern and RØDE’s annular line tube technology, the mic captures audio in all directions, to help achieve a full-bodied sound. 

The VideoMicro II comes with a HELIX shock mount that protects it from knocks, bumps and other handling noise. Made from thermoplastic, the mount minimises vibrations while keeping the mic stable on-camera. Also included with the microphone are RØDE’s foam pop filter and furry windshields for additional noise reduction.

With simple plug-and-play functionality and no batteries required, the VideoMicro II is suited to both beginners and more experienced creators. It connects to a camera or smartphone via 3.5mm TRS or TRRS, respectively, and comes with both a patch cable and splitter. The microphone is also compact and lightweight; its all-metal body weighs 39g and measures 80mm long and 22mm in diameter.

The RØDE VideoMicro II is now shipping worldwide and costs £83 (including VAT). Visit RØDE’s website or see the video below to learn more.
