One of the questions I have routinely gotten over the years since I started this channel has been if the Rode NTG4+ sounds different when powered by 48V phantom power vs self powering. Sounds like an easy enough test to do but instead of me telling you the answer outright, I'm going to make you work for this one. I'll supply the means, you need to listen though.
Just so it's been said, if you compare the performance of the Rode NTG4+ when powered 48V from a stand alone recorder vs self powered going directly into your camera, there will be a huge difference. External recorders are almost universally going to sound better than camera audio inputs. Sure there are high end camera with good preamps but if you own one of those cameras, I doubt you'll use a low quality audio recorder and if you do... shame on you!
