Nice one Rode, "... the problem is the G7 itself". And other Panasonics. And Sony models mentioned below. I'm also getting bunions from my new fancy shoes, but I take it that the solution must then be to modify my feet? PA operator here, and this should not be a problem of mine, but I work with plenty of photo/video operators who use these. In theory, they are an amazing piece of kit, and make life so much easier, but when I have one of these attached to ANY of my wireless mics - Shure, Sennheiser, Samson, even my cheap backup Aldi mic - and therefore send that awful whine through my system to the entire room, at some point Rode, you may have to at least consider "it's me... hi..."

This worked with my Rode VideoMic GO microphone on my Canon M50. I was previously using the microphone with my Canon 80D. It worked for about a year on my 80D fine and then the buzz started on my videos about 8 months ago. I did have a new overhead setup and I just assumed it was my camera and/or the new setup. I removed it and used the on-camera audio, after trying several solutions. I just got my Canon M50 and still the buzz on the videos. So, on the hunt again for solutions and your video popped up. I tried your solution and it works! Since I am not mobile, this will work well for me until I upgrade to a better microphone. Thanks a million! 🙂

I can confirm this buzzing noise by using my beloved Sony A7C. The mentioned workaround with a simple audio extender cable does solve this problem (but looks very unprofessional), you even can leave the receiver in the shoe of the camera. So thank you for sharing! I also own a Sennheiser MKE 200 and I used this cable to replace the red one provided by Rode. Buzzing noise is much less (maybe at 20 per cent level compared to Rode cable). So there is definitly a problem with the red cable I think. All Rode equipment what I could try so far was rather disappointing. I do recommend the Sennheiser AVX-ME2 if you think you will be using this kind of wireless solution a lot.

I own the RODE Wireless GO II system for little more than a year. It is standard setup incl. 2pcs RODE lavaliers GO bought simultaneously as a complete set. Everything was just fine the whole year, but few days ago (second decade of May) there started something strange and not funny. When I use ONE of the original Lav GO microphones, I suddenly get kind of RF high frequency noise. This noise is recorded into camera video and internal audio .wav file as well. It never happens with the internal microphone of both transmitters, but with Rode lav go inserted into jack 3.5mm. Tried in many locations, and different situations, replaced red RODE cable from RX by another one - all the same: one RODE mic works fine, another one generates ugly noise. I have done to factory reset; I even bought NEW lav GO mic; No luck - it does the same noise right out of the box. The funniest is that one mic is still working fine on both transmitters, so I have now three mics where just one works fine on both TXs. All 3 (three) RODE mics work properly on other transmitters like Comica, Sennhieser G2/G3 and audio recorder Tascam/Zoom H5 etc. and give a clean rich sound NB! Cheap lav mics like Comica, Boya work fine without any noise. I have tried to use Sennhieser ME4 - it is almost ok, but when I move mic close to RODE transmitter it starts generate noise as well. 🙁 I have latest RODE Central software + firmware version 2.1.9 and by the way, before updating firmware to 2.1.9 everything was fine. RODE seems to ignore this problem. UPDATE: in my case turning PAD option off helps! oh... breath out

I had the same issues with my Wireless Go II and Lavalier Go mics. What worked for me was to turn OFF "Pad" on the Transmitter (not the Receiver!), which was turned on (check if there is a small green triangle shown at the mic channel on the receiver display). As soon as I turned off the "Pad" function on the transmitters (with Rode Cetnral, but you can also do it with selecting the transmitter channel on the receiver and long-press the mute button, so that the green triangle disappears), the buzzing noise was gone.

There seem to be two types of buzzing depending on your setup. I have had both!. One is caused by using a lav mic with the transmitter and it has the PAD option turned on. Turn it off and the buzzing goes away. You don't get it from the transmitter if you don't have the mic plugged into it and PAD turned on. The other is caused by the cable connecting the receiver to the camera. If you have a long cable - not coiled or folded up and keep it away from the camera it seem to fix / reduce it. You can try folding the cable bringing the receiver closer to the camera and see the noise comes back. I think it might be something to do with using an unshielded cable, so i've ordered a couple to test this theory, so i'll update when i have tried that option out.

Hi, I saw someone solve the buzzing issue by switching off Rode's audio pad mode. In this instance, the buzzing only occurred when using the audio pad mode and a lav mic attached to the transmitter. Another person solved the issue by turning the camera's gain to one noch above zero and only using the Rode's gain. This should enable you to mount your receiver to your camera again. I am surprised your camera does not let you switch off wifi? I read somewhere that if the camera wifi is on by default, this is a camera fault as this should not happen.

This interference problem has nothing to do with wifi, I had the same issue with my phone in airplane mode and I thought it was due to hidden network acitvities but then I tried with the Zoom H5 audio recorder and the result was even worse so it's definitely not a problem of wifi, 4G or 5G. But when I tried with the Zoom I was using a lavalier on the rode and I guess the cable behaves like an antenna. Actually the quality of connection cables is very poor compared to hi-fi cables in terms of isolation to prevent EMF interference. I'm currently looking for very high quality cable and lav.
@HomebrewAudioRecording2 жыл бұрын
I'm no expert on RF interference. It was Rode who told me to turn off the camera's wireless capabilities - all of them (bluetooth and Wi-Fi). But there is no bluetooth on the G7 and the Wi-Fi is supposed to be off unless you use it, apparently. I don't know. What I DO know is that getting the receiver 4 feet away from the camera did the trick. I didn't have a problem with my Zoom H2. but there is someone who DID have this same problem with his H4 or H5 like you mentioned (kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4vNhKWtrbqHbLs ). His fix involved getting aTRS-to-XLR adapter and splitter. Then with the XLR connector, the interference vanished. Interestingly, he said he had no noise when he plugged straight into his DSLR (I don't think he said what kind it was). That was not an option with the G7, of course, since the camera's input is the 3.5mm plug. Interestingly that is the same input size for the H2, which caused me no noise trouble at all. Other folks around the web report having the problem with the lav but not with JUST the transmitter. I had the problem with and without the lav. So this is definitely something that seems to be all over the place in terms of how and what will cause the problem.

So disappointing, as you said they are great on an iPhone, rubbish on an actually camera unfortunately. You could also use the Rode tranmitter as a field recorder and just export the audio for treatment to add to your footage without needing to send it to the camera at all.

I grabbed this one at Best buy I think. But literally any "3.5mm headphone extension cable 6ft" (or 1/8th inch headphone extension cable 6ft") will work. Here is one I just searched for from Amazon: amzn.to/3HVfO1T

But does it really solve the problem? Having it 4ft away from the camera while shooting outdoors or on the move just causes more problems.
@HomebrewAudioRecording Жыл бұрын
It's not ideal. that's for sure. But yeah. I can let the receiver hang down from the camera and still be 5-10ft away. In fact, the transmission can go as far as a football field. So an extra 2 feet or so of cable from camera to receiver isn't that much of a hassle.

Hi, i´ve got the same problem but only while using the Lavalier Go Mics.I wondered why , at the first time i used the Go mics i had no problems.Now i´ve found out why.If you've activated the pad mode(little blue triangle at the channel display) the buzzing noise is terrible, even your camera wifi is activated or not.That was also my first suggestion but after i´ve deactivated the wifi and bluetooth on my Sony PXW-z90 nothing changed.So hopefully this is the solution of the problem and rode will fix it with an firmware update.

Hi there! Thanks for the tip on using a longer cable, I had the buzzing sound with a Sony A7SIII also. But now I discovered I have the same buzzing sound recorded internally on the transmitter which I use together with a Rode Lavalier GO mic (I used the option available through Rode Central app to use the TX as a recorder). Do you have any thoughts on why this happens?
@HomebrewAudioRecording Жыл бұрын
There are a number of reasons, apparently, for this buzz. One is a setting on the GO itself, that I don't recall at the moment. But it seemed like most of the solutions on KZbin involved THAT "fix." It didn't work for me. But it might for you. Just check out 1 or 2 of the other YT vids for this and you'll find it.

Thanks for answering! It seems the "pad" option on the TX has to be "off" for the buzz to disappear.

@@HomebrewAudioRecording I have a A7Siii. And it seems to be the red cable. As soon as i touch it the noise dissapears. What can I do to fix this? (Pad did not help and bringing the receiver in distance did not help, too.)
@GordonNovember Жыл бұрын
Solution in 2 steps: 1st step) It seems the red Cable from Rode is poor quality. It is not shielded very well. Further it is (by nature) unbalanced. In my case it did not depend on the distance of the receiver to the camera but on a better quality cable. 2nd step) The buzz-noise is independent of the audio level (PAD). Means: You can turn up the level of the receiver without increasing the noise level (which is good). Therefore it is best to bring up the audio level of the receiver as high as possible without distoring and decrease the audio sensitivity inside the DSLR. This makes the noiselevel of this Buzzsound dissapear.

Hi, brand new Wireless Pro here and on my first test I have that buzz. But I have that buzz on the camera AND on the emitter which is recording the audio by himself too. So the fix won't work for me and the issue seems to be different too. I'll do more test, but I'm quite disappointed, that Wireless Pro doesn't seems that much pro...
@HomebrewAudioRecording8 ай бұрын
That is weird. At least in my case, the "safety" recording on the transmitter was not picking up the buzzing. For it to also be present in the transmitter seems like something is off. I would definitely try to contact RODE support on that one.

It's NOT just an issue with your G7... I have the same issue while using my Sony FX3. And I am a run-n-gun filmmaker... soooo I can't just drag my receiver 4 feet behind me while running around... The whole point of this Rode system is that it's WIRELESS! haha UGH. I get a buzzing sound simply by plugging in a cable to my camera's side mic port without a mic connected... I'm not sure why. I've tried using a different cable from my shotgun mic and the same thing happens. If I plug in my shotgun in the buzzing goes away. I think you're on to something behind the wifi signals. My camera has an airplane mode but that doesn't seem to change anything, nor switching the signal from 5ghs to 2.5ghs.

Yeah, this seems much too common with too large a variety of cameras and devices to NOT be a RODE problem. They had better fix this before the next release.

There seem to be multiple ways to fix this issue, none of which worked for me, but they work for others. It's odd. Maybe try deactivating or activating the pad mode(little blue triangle at the channel display). Also see if you can disable Bluetooth on your mobile and see if that helps.

I have the same issue and solution with my Sony PCM D100 recorder (and other recorders as well as a camera). The PCM D100 does not have any WiFi, so WiFi cannot be the problem. Another guy that had this problem with a Zoom (H6?) recorder got rith of the problem when he connected the Rx unit to Rode XLR Pro which has an internal isolation transformer. He could do this since his recorder also has XLR mic inputs. He did then not have to move the Rx unit away from the recorder any more. To me this tells that the problem is the Rx unit sending this buzz noise to the recorder (camera) via the cable. To me this is a design issue with the Rx unit. Bad design. They have made it for mounting on the camera, and then tell you to move it away from the camera.
@HomebrewAudioRecording8 ай бұрын
Actually RODE never suggested that. It was just an experiment on my end. But yeah. Obviously bad design. Thanks for the info!
@frodelangset97908 ай бұрын
Hi@@HomebrewAudioRecording : Yes, same to me. I just found a long cable and moved it away, and it worked. However, I just found some info on someone that put a isolation transformer with 3.5 mm TRS plugs between the Rode cable and the camera, and it did remove the noise. He could now keep the Rx on top of the camera. This indicate a form of ground loop problem which is quite common for unbalanced signal lines. An isolation transformer is quite cheap, so I have ordered one (Audac 2070, but there are others and I think he had another one) to see if it fixes the problem. It would be a much better solution since I carry the Sony PCM D100 on me while recording (monitoring the sound) and it is not easy to find a place on my body to clip the Rx unit that is far enough away from the recorder to get rid of the noise. I need to have the Rx unit mounted on the front side of my body somewhere (where also the recorder is) in order to avoid shadowing the radio signal between the transmitters and receiver. Hopefully this is a solution that fixes the whole thing.
@frodelangset97908 ай бұрын
I thought I'd let you know that I have found a solution the the buzzing noise problem when using the Wireless Go II with my Sony PCM D100. I connected an isolation transformer between the Wireless Go Rx and the mic input on the D100, and there is now no noticeable buzz when I listen to the recording, even on max input volume. I am just using a cheap transformer from Audac named TR2070 (it takes a stereo signal, so you only need one). If your recorder has XLR inputs you can probably use Røde's own VXLR pro, but they are a bit on the expensive side.

I agree! this is not a long-term solution. The main take-away from the video is to show that soft, bulky material like a comforter (moving blankets are also often used) can prevent room reverb. So with that knowledge, you can find practical ways to tamp down room sound for an actual longer solution. for example, put soft acoustic panels on your hard walls - especially in front and behind you. Or hang blankets on a frame of PVC pipe. I've seen DIY "booths" where your just get PVC pipe and corners and make some walls and hang blankets from that.
