Rode Video Micro 2 amzn.to/3UFWN89

[@archivist17]

Nice piece of kit! Good to see you posting regularly again. :)

[@coffeesniffer]

Hello there! Such a great reviewing is that? I'm subscriber of you since I got my Zhiyun M2s! (Your review is one of the reason to buy) And right now I'm watching your Micro II review and it's so detailed! Thank yıou so much Young!

[@DavidSmith0712]

Hi Young360 I have my headphones on and the sound is really great nice and crisp but also smooth. Thanks Young take care and 👀😎 see you next time.

[@JeffStrides]

Thanks for reviewing this

[@renatobfa]

Best review of this product I've seen so far

[@Young360]

thank you ❤❤

[@BjEddy1]

Awesome again Young , you sound like an angel 😇 to me . Great all around demonstration, you cooking 🥘 that was worth seeing 🙃🌴

[@angeinviaggio]

Fantastic promoter, really! You convinced me. 👌 So perfect for cooking video.

[@sithabelamandlawenkosiwodu6298]

Very helpful. Thanks much.

[@MikhailGoncharov-tl4cr]

you are right it's unreal great microphone

[@PeterSu]

It's crazy how much better the Pocket 2 internal mics sounded vs the Videomicro 2. I'm guessing the DJI has noise cancelling and the Videomicro 2 has the lower SPL and wind-issues even with the dead cat on. Thanks for this awesome and detailed test!

[@bobuk5722]

H Young, me again! I use Rode microphones with my video cameras. I think they are a great combination of very good audio quality at a sensible price. This one sounds really good at blogging distances which is not always the case as you demonstrated with the built in microphones. Nicely presented yet again. Cooking was a good demo! Being a shotgun mic - the front tube with the holes is an interference tube that cancels out some noises coming from the sides which makes the microphone more directional - it is ideal for talking head type shots. Wireless mics - especially the 'al in one' type tend to have omnidirectional mics that pick up audio equally from all round - sometimes wanted, sometimes not.

[@Young360]

great observation! yeah, directional mic definitely has great use in specific usage :)

[@timothyawe5103]

Great review.!

[@eontiveros32]

What other camera did you use to record this video? I liked it a lot honestly

[@eddytube5589]

Have you tried the Rode videomic go II the slightly more expensive shotgun mic? Would you say it's worth the upgrade to get that one instead?

[@carlinhosjapan]

- you are amazing even promoting the products 👏👏👏 ->

[@ericguqin]

cant wait for the full review of DJI pocket 3

[@Young360]

but when will it be out?

[@MalMilligan]

I had a Rode Video Mic with the 9 volt battery. One of the very worst battery door designs in the history of earth. I threw the mic in the garbage. The Rode GO mics are good stuff when they don't pop or have other signal problems. I've had good luck with the tiny Rode Video Micro and believe it or not a super cheap Takstar that I got shipped from China. This Micro II seems good but I'd like to test a Deity mic. I'm in Thailand now so it's not like when I lived a train ride away from B & H in New York City... lol. Another good review... ty.

[@ww1www]

Thank you, Young. Too much windnoise, almost throughout. Was the deadcat on?

[@Young360]

the big sponge was on, not the massive deadcat

[@wplg]

It works great in doors, but outdoors the wind screen needs an upgrade . Still hear the wind.

[@BerlinGonzalez]

The RODE girl for sure! About the mic, I like the price for sure. I don't know about the noise in outdoors, does it comes with a deadcat, wait.. it does :) Did you had tomatoes with eggs? I'm trying to catch up with your videos

[@Young360]

yeah, i just did tomatoes with eggs...but didnt show the finished meal as it didnt look that good 🤣🤣

[@papafuz01]

Thank you for the video! Where did you get the RODE knit hat?

[@Young360]

they kindly gave it me. i think it was for creators 🤔

[@papafuz01]

@@Young360 ok thank you!

[@jesusgjchuza6491]

Super 😎🤝

[@aa-au]

Nice video review. I find that it sounded a little scratchy? Your RODE Wireless GO 2 sounds much better. I have the first RODE Wireless GO and that is crystal clear, providing I am directly in fron of the mic. It does tend to bend inwards when I have it clipped onto my shirt. BTW, if you do a full cooking video, I will DEFINITELY watch that!

[@Young360]

when it was windy, the mic performance wasnt as good. but in non windy condition, Video Micro 2 worked really well :) i dont think i can do cooking vid...i am terrible at cooking and not a fussy eater 🤣🤣🤣

[@aa-au]

@@Young360 OK, that's good to know. I bought my RODE Wireless GO initially to video my car, as I was going to be at least 3-5 metres away. Now I am using it for my computer videos and I am right next to the microphone. It's still working well, except now I can't switch off the microphone, so it runs flat after use, then I have to recharge to full, and repair with the receiver every time. A little frustrating but still working. I'll look at this shotgun mic next.

[@sureshdakgm]

Woooow fantastic

[@georgesmith6785]

Awesome

[@Princeton_James]

Great video. Where can I get that bennie?

[@Young360]

i think it was for creators...🤔 Rode seems to make nice merch! some on their websites but not sure about this beanie..🤔

[@MIMCKMedia]

Big negativ point is that it just got 110db spl instead of 140db on the first gen. That reflect in heavy distortion in windy conditions and also useless for recording loud car audio or drums Also voltage output is too high for many cameras which also lead to distortion.

[@josephlontoc835]

good day.can i asked based on your xperience,what is the better mic for recording loud car audio music.coz i also looking for mic that can record loud music from car audio.

[@MIMCKMedia]

@@josephlontoc835 i can recommend you the rode m5 mics if you have a xlr recorder

[@djedje5750]

damn please put the deadcat on ...

Thank you very much for sharing, very good informative video making! The beautiful young lady looks very good in the hat with the logo!Fantastic product presentation in the correct way!

[@ArcticExploring]

It is actually funny hearing people that can't say the Ø letter 😆 (no hate) You know RØDE means the color RED in Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, German and many other countries in Europe. So it fit the color they use on the mics. OnTopic: nice, I have the first Video Micro and I love it.

[@Young360]

oh, i totally didn't know that. thanks for the info!

[@ThatForeignBloke]

It's RÖD in Swedish not RØDE (rhymes with Bird or Herd) 👍

[@ArcticExploring]

@@ThatForeignBloke RØD in Norway but also RØDE like RØDE KORS (red cross).

So there's no discount promo code?

[@Young360]

i think it's already priced very nicely? :)

[@joligrunlaub3412]

But it is monaural only. So good for one voice in front but bad for surrounding sounds.

[@lsvlogs_]

Hi young 👋♡

[@Young360]

Hi Lucchi!

[@Nayddoh]

Marked it as a wind test but didn’t use the windmuff 🤦🏼

[@stefpix]

Too much wind noise. But nice warm sounding voice. The wind noise is unacceptable. From the branches in the background it looks like just a gentle breeze.

[@jvcex]

beautiful young

[@henrykxxx79]

Very bad wind cancelation , unusable outdoors

[@silbay]

The connection to the phone is laughable since NO quality phone made today has a TRS or TRRS plug on it. Nor does the iPad. If your camera doesn't provide the power you need than this is totally worthless. Suggest people check that they have power out from their mic plug before they waste their money. Lots of popping in the video also, nope will pass on this junk toy. Living proof you get what you pay for

[@Young360]

long time no see, silbay!

[@BlueGlimpser]

I guess that's why they released almost straight away the rode videomic go II with usb C connector.

[@CaptureLifeConnection]

Interesting, this might be my next vlogging microphone 🤔. Thanks for sharing your experience. ✌️😎
