Rode Wireless Go + Yamaha MG10XU | How to get the Rode Wireless Go into An Analog Mixer

In this video, I will talk about why normal cables and adapters will not work with the Rode Wireless Go into an analog mixer and then provide a solution. I've purchased the Rode VXLR to solve this problem and can now connect to Wireless Go to the Yamaha MG10XU and get audio.
ATTENTION: I did not recommend using 48 volts fantom power as this may damage microphones. The Rode Lapel Mic. The Lapel mic I was using does not require fantom power and I DID NOT have this switch depressed on in the mixer! DO NOT Use Phantom power!

You have absolutely NO IDEA how much this video just helped. I'm live-streaming a wedding in 2 days. I bought a mixer for the audio as I found passing the audio through my ATEM Mini caused issues at older venues with not-so-great power sockets. Came to test things out today and found my theory (just like your first 2 on here) didn't work. VXLR ordered. Thank you!!

Pheww so glad I purchased that rode accessory, this is exactly what I was trying to achieve and decided to purchase the rode instead of another brand.

[@mzshan79]

So a little backstory is I purchased a MackieProfxv6 for some home Kerioke, instead of purchasing shure mics I thought why not get the rode wireless go2 this way I can knock 2 birds with one stone. Use the mics for when I do my family travel videos and use them for karaoke when home. I did look up videos which this exact setup but didn’t get any results at that time, perhaps you should adjust your title to include a generic analog mixer instead of Yamaha for more hits. While purchasing the mics I added the vxlr adapter also. After seeing the video I am glad I did. Just now have to wait for the mixer to arrive and test this out.

Thanks for this clear explanation. If it hadn't been for your explanation of the cable (and a clear view of both connectors in one frame), I would have accidentally purchased the Røde SC7 cable (TRRS to TRS) rather than the Røde SC2 (TRS to TRS). Speaking of the SC7 (TRRS to TRS), is it primarily meant to plug into mirrorless cameras, smartphones, and the like. (I'm new to the world of Røde.)

[@gfire_productions]

Hello Curbuntu. Thank you for for watching and supporting our channel. As for the SC7 (TRRS to TRS) I use this specifically to get audio out of the Rode Wireless Receiver to my smart phone or tablet. Noe my new iPhone 12 Pro does not have a mini jack port so I us a TRRS to lightning with the SC7 to my Phone. TRS side of SC7 goes in the Rode Receiver, TRRS side goes in the phone if you have that old headphone connection. I showed it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKmVZYV9fLqkjcU

[@markluxton3402]

The VXLR is just a wire to wire connection. This adapter is only good for certain connections/types of mic. Most people have 3.5mm or 1/8 inch plugged condenser mics, which require 5 volts not 48 volts from your mixer's phantom power. The VXLR+ is the appropriate adapter. 3.5mm type condenser mics and the Wireless go receiver, do not produce the twin signal used for balancing, so it makes no difference what adapter you use here, there is no balanced signal. The VXLR Pro converts the single signal from a small condenser mic, or Wireless Go receiver's output, and transforms it into a twinned signal that can be used for balancing and noise reduction. At the same time the Pro version like the Plus version converts the 48volts from the interface or mixer, to 5volts. It is pointless IMO to plug the VXLR Pro directly into a mixer or interface, since there is no signal over wires to balance. The VXLR Plus is correct though the Pro will also work. Where the VXLR PRO is useful, is when you need to send a wired signal from a 3.5mm plugged condenser mic, over a long distance, in an RF noisy environment. You plug your 3.5mm mic, or the Wireless Go receiver(if you wanted) into the VXLR Pro, then run a length of XLR cable to your mixer or interface from the VXLR Pro. This creates a balanced signal through the XLR cables.

[@AndreasBodin]

Great walkthrough Gerald! 👊🏻 Running the Røde Wireless Go II with two transmitters, how to split the audio when connecting from the receiver into two separate input channels on the mixer?

[@gfire_productions]

In that Case I'd use a y cable (3.5mm TRS to 6.35mm Stereo TS): amzn.to/3U0d8rG . The TRS end would go into your Rode Wireless Go II receiver and the l and R TS ends will go into two separate channels of your mixer. Don't forget the Rode Wireless Go II allows you to set each transmitter to be is own separator channel so make sure you check your settings accordingly. Please let me know how that works out for you.

[@MiaHessMusic]

OK, so I have this mixer but I'm a performer and I want to have the audio out, say form the headphone jack OR the monitors go to my Rode Wireless so that while I'm gigging my camera is getting good audio from the mixer. Do I put put the 3.5 to 1/4 inch adapter in the headphone jack and then attach the receiver to the 3.5 jack?? Then I'd have the transmitter on my camera with the appropriate cable?? This video was sooooooo close to what I'm looking for......

[@magwitch]

Hey man, super helpful video thanks! If I wanted to take an output from the mixer and send that to the transmitter, how could I achieve that? Could I use a standard jack to jack with a 1/4" adapter from the mixer headphone socket?

[@markluxton3402]

The transmitter requires mic level input and supplies "plug in power" to the condenser mic. Output from the mixer would be line level. I doubt anyone makes a converter to run line level from 1/4 inch TRS to mic level 1/8 TRS. It could be done. I would just look for a wireless audio transmitter something like a guitar air jack, except that this is an instrument level signal transmitter. There are audio transmitters/receivers made to do what you want. I used to have an air jack that transmitted to my stereo receiver, and wireless headphones. I could go outside and play with my guitar and listen loudly without anyone knowing I suck playing electric guitar lol I doubt anyone makes a 1/4 inch air jack that converts line level to mic level.

That's a great question and you could definitely put your receiver into an iPhone or an iPad accordingly. As for the transmitter though I'm really not sure at the moment if it's able to except a line level signal from your mixer because it may be too much. This would be a question better suited for Rode Tech Support. I'm really just not sure if the transmitter can handle that kind of input even if you were to use a DI box from your mixer out to step down the audio and then into the Rode Wireless Go transmitter.

hi.. tnx for this video.. i have a question, is this safe for my wireless go if the phantom power is on? the phantom power in our church mixer is always on considering a lot of mics are used..

[@gfire_productions]

Hello Alien and thanks for watching. I got this fro Rode website: www.rode.com/faq/will-phantom-power-damage-my-mic-psu |

[@happyebb]

Hi Gerald, I was wondering if this is an alternative for a small church in terms of distance (between 10m - 20m of open distance)? Whats your experience? Thanx

[@gfire_productions]

Professionally I would not recommend this used in a church. Although it will work fine within the distance of 60 feet there are opportunities for this microphone to have drop outs due to its very small built in antennas. These types of devices have an application more towards Vlogging in my opinion versus an all-out church setting. So if you are considering to use this in that manner, make sure that the receiver has a direct line of sight to the transmitter so that minimizes any in interference.

[@JoeCastellon]

Can this VXLR be used if phantom power is on? I would like to use an AT2020 which requires phantom power on one channel while using the videomicro with the VLXR on another channel. The mixer will not allow independent phantom power. I don't want to fry my videomicro.

[@gfire_productions]

Please don't fry you Video Micro. from my understanding the Video Micro need plug in power to work and at a voltage much lower than 48v Phantom Power.. You'll need to convert "Phantom Power" to "Plug in Power". For this you need the VXLR+. After doing research on Rode's website this is my understanding. In other words the VXLR+ converts 48v Phantom Power to approximately 5 volts.Ithe Video Micro can be powered from about 2 voltes to 6 or 7 so the VXLR+ is the tool. Please confirm with RODE help line.

[@omakethetrackgo]

Awesome video! You've answered a lot. I have an idea and this may solve. Let me know what you think. Here is what I am trying to achieve... I want to have a jam session with my guys and I want to patch their laptops into my mixer. A simple line put from their headphone 3.5 jacks. I've tried the 3.5 to 1/4 method but like you said, no power. So since it's coming from a laptop headphone jack, this method should work using the VXLR adapter correct? And also, how is the noise when no sound is coming in? Terrible hiss or white noise? Anways, thanks a bunch fam. Feels like I'm closing in on a solution!

[@gfire_productions]

Hey bro the Rode VXLR was specifically designed to get certain models of their lapel mics into a mixer correctly like in my case the Rode Wireless Go. VXLR is wired differently from your standard audio cables. If you want to get a "laptop" audio from the headphone jack into the mixer then you can use a 3.5 mm to XLR cable for that on channels one through four of the Yamaha MG10XU. On channels 5/6 and 7/8 you can use a 3.5 mm to stereo RCA or 3.5 mm to dual 1/4 inch (unbalances) cable. On 9/10 you can only use a 3.5 mm to dual 1/4 inch (unbalanced) cable.

[@toneranger]

Hi, Thank you so much, do you use this for ceremonies through the speakers live for example so guests can hear the vows of the couple ? This would be better than a traditional rack wireless system as it doesn't need mains power

[@gfire_productions]

Hello Tone Ranger. First let me say thank you for watching our video and supporting our channel. We personally do not use the Rode Wireless Go for ceremonies because we're at lots of of very large and high-end weddings plus we usually more than 30 feet away from the lapel mic. I used to use Shure PGXD and BLX before. The problem I was having there is once all the people stood up between where the lapel mic was and my receiver, it sometimes caused dropouts because of the bodies was like a thick wall. I've since then upgraded to the Shure QLXD microphones to solve the problem because theyuse half wave antenna which allows me to talk the length of a football field or through buildings, literally. To answer your question, you can use the Rode Wireless Go as a lapel mic at a ceremony if it is very close and maybe smaller intimate weddings and certainly a direct line of sight between the transmitter and the receiver. I personally choose not to use that system at a wedding, but I do trust it to Vlog with because if the audio drops out it goes out it's just me making KZbin videos of which I could always do a retake or edit. You cannot however do a retake or edit live at someone's wedding. Use discretion if you are going that route my friend.

[@jericcapule1173]

Hello there! I was wondering if you use the transmitter alone, without connecting another lapel mic to it. So the setup would be, the transmitter will be the lapel mic and the receiver connected to the analog mixer via xlr male to 3.5 mm jack?

[@z1982_]

Hello! Why can’t I connect my rode wireless go to line input with a 3.5 to 6.35 mm converter ?

[@gfire_productions]

Because the 6.5 mm is wired as tip ring sleeve or is a balances connection. That is why the Rode VXLR is wired different as stated in the video. My suggestion is to buy the road the XLR to help you get your road wireless go into your mixer.

[@nabiict219]

Hi, I want to use these mic with Yamaha mixer and Bose speakers in our Auditorium. Do you think there will be a feedback problem or whistle noise. Thanks :)

[@gfire_productions]

Hello NABI ITC and thanks for watching. Any microphone is subject to feedback if improperly placed near a speaker. If your Bose speakers are spread out wide enough where the mic will not be picked up by them, you should not have a feedback problem. You can also use the 3 band EQ on the Yamaha mixer to assist with avoiding feedback. Again, speaker placement is going to be a major factor in this.

[@philipagie4009]

Thank you so much for this very helpful video sir. I have one more question sir, how about if you attached the transmitter into the mixer and the receiver is connected in camera will the camera receive and record the auido coming from the mixer?

[@gfire_productions]

You can do that however, you must significantly reduce the audio output from the mixer so you don't overdrive you camera audio. I have not done this yet but in the the meantime, I use the rode wireless go receiver directly in my camera some times with the transmitter on my person and not in the mixer. Of course that only take care of my voice in the camera. Check out these options: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKmVZYV9fLqkjcU

Awesome video man. I tried the 1/4 inch it didn’t work like your test as well. Just ordered the rode vxlr adapter but I was wondering if the transmitter/receiver works the other way around into the mixer so that I can get all the audio out from the mixer? (For a wedding ceremony so I get both mic & audio into my livestream)

[@gfire_productions]

Hey bro that's an excellent question. I would NOT do that because I believe that your mixer is going to have a line level output that's meant to connect to an amplifier or a powered speaker which can take that kind of input. The Rode Wireless Go however is meant to accept a mic level input from say the smart LAV or the smart LAV plus and of course similar lapel mics. Rather you use the auxiliary out of your mixer or the main XLR out, it may be too much for the Rode wireless go transmitter. I am very curious though and I may except this challenge and try to figure it out. My advice is to contact Rode directly to ask a question like that or consider something like the alto stealth or one of the wireless microphone systems like shure, sennheiser or equivalent to get that done. On the other end of those systems though the question is still going to be, is it too much output for what you're hooking into like your computer or your phone. If I went that route I would probably try to use the irig out of the alto stealth or any microphone receiver to step to step down the amount of audio necessary to safely get it into a computer or a phone. I do have a video showing that I came from an XLR cable out of my DJ controller into the I rig and then into my phone for live stream. Bro I'm on fire right now you really got me curious but I have a wedding to perform for today so I'm gonna have to explore this option at a later date.

I want to use this wireless mic with a large speaker which is to be used in large seminar hall. The bigger speaker has aux in. So can I directly connect the receiver to the speaker? Will there be any feedback problem?

[@gfire_productions]

Hello and thank you for watching this video. In the same way I've connected this Wireless Go system to the mixer I can connect it to a powered speaker. As for feedback, you still have to follow the basic fundamentals with microphones in relation to where the speakers are. You can't stand directly in front of a loud blaring speaker with a microphone and not have feedback. I have tested this out personally with the Wireless Go receiver into the back of a powered speaker and realize I can only get so close to the speaker before feedback happened. So make sure that if you go that route with this mic into a speaker that your speaker is up as high as you can get it, pointing at your guest and you are standing behind the speaker, if you walk out in front of it you will risk having feedback as these microphones are sensitive.

What if I want the sound from the house (mixer) into the camera for live streaming church service?

[@gfire_productions]

I simply use the USB cable from the mixer to the CPU. Depending on where I'm streaming to like Facebook, KZbin or Zoom, I select inside of each program what my audio source will be ie the Yamaha MG10XU. That gets audio to any program like Facebook, KZbin, Zoom, or any live streaming service directly from the mixer through a USB cable. NOTE: If you do not use OBS to Facebook like my video below, and want to stream audio from your mixer to Facebook, then in the Facebook live settings, choose your camera source and your audio source(MG10XU).

[@adityagoela]

Thanks man, this was really helpful. My question is, will the quality of the mic output be better if I take it through an audio interface then to my pc as compared to directly connecting to the pc (rode wireless go II)?

[@gfire_productions]

It depends on what your interface capabilities are. In my case, yes because each channel on my mixer, which is an interface, has an EQ. If I were connecting directly to my PC I would need to depend on the software to have an EQ to make it sound better. Software like OBS DAWs maybe but I can't say the same for things like Facebook, KZbin, Microsoft teams, or Zoom. Personally I think the Rode Wireless Go sounds good right out of the box. I use it in three scenarios… 1 Facebook and KZbin live with my iPhone, 2 Recording video directly to my cell phone and later use video editing software to make a KZbin video, and 3 Recording through my mixer into any platform like you see in this video.

Are you setting the Gain (dB selection) on yr Receiver correctly? It Should be set Fullest at 0dB It should Not be set at -12dB

[@gfire_productions]

Hello Temp06 and thanks for watching. Setting a gain on the microphone receiver is depending on the person talking. Some peoples voices are stronger and more overpowering than others with soft-spoken voices. the Wireless Go gives you the option to adjust between three settings depending on how loud the speaker is. In my case if I set my receiver to it for this volume it would actually distorted my voice.

[@gfire_productions]

You got it my friend and when you do hook your mic to channel one or two of the mixer with a standard XLR, make sure you got good gain structure. If you are using a lapel mic like what’s in the video, you’ll need the VXLR. Does your hand held mic have an XLR out similar to the Shure SM58?

[@Mbee16]

@@gfire_productions hi thanks buddy. If using a powered lapel like the Boya BY M1 lav mic would it also work with the Rode VXLR? I bought a cheap wireless mic. Was around $15. It works nice for short distance speech. The receiver has a 6.35mm TS jack. I've tried to use it with "line in" on a mixer but doesn't work. Some mixers you need to really push the gain then u get weak sound.

Hi, nice video! i have a question: is possible use the rode to amplifier a person on a conference room? have some problems if the rode are near the sound speaker? I investigating it to connect mutiple rodes on a mixer and amplifier it in a conference room.

[@gfire_productions]

It is possible however, like any mic in a room with speakers, you have to be able to deal with ringing out the feed back. With some microphones you may be able to do this effectively with the built EQ onto the mixer especially with a hand held mic. With lapel mics you may benefit even more from having a 31 band eq so you can deal with specific frequencies that give feedback. Sometimes lapel mics can be highly sensitive and not as ideal in a small room setting with speakers. But to be clear people do conferences with the pill makes all the time. I put a few tips below; 1. make sure your microphone is not in the path of the speakers if possible 2. get the speakers on stands as high as possible 3. Try to have your speakers in front of you when you're speaking. 4. a 31 band EQ can ring out feedback a lot better than the three band eq built onto the mixer. 5. I'm setting the gain structure on the mic, turn it up to just before feedback and back off 1/4 turn. then di any EQing.

Hello DJ Neumatic. That really depends because like any microphone, you still have to follow basic fundamentals of microphone placement and EQing when you are using a microphone with a live speaker. I have use the Rode wireless go with a PA system and of course when I get too close to the speaker it will feedback because that is an Omni-directional microphone. However with the right speaker placement and the use of an EQ to help with certain frequencies, I have performed many weddings with no problems.

So what is the difference between balanced and unbalanced? I still see three pins. Did the connections change? and .. what happens when you switch on the phantom power (48v) ? Will it destroy the receiver?

[@gfire_productions]

A balanced cable, by contrast, has three conductors in the connector and three wires in the cable: two signals wires plus a separate ground wire. As in the unbalanced cable, the ground wire still surrounds the signal wires and is used as a shield against interference. The XLR jack on the Shure wireless receiver is protected from phantom power. The phantom power will not damage the receiver. Rode has a VXLR Plus Adaptor for when you are plugging the Rode

It could work however, you should seriously test this out before a wedding!!! The Rode Wireless Go system is great but I trusted as far as flying or making videos that way if something goes wrong it's just me making my video which I could recover from that. But if there's an issue at a wedding then that is absolutely terrible. I use the Shure QLXD microphones for wedding ceremonies but I use the Rode Wireless Go for making videos or in very close spaces like in my home to avoid potential for drop outs. Weddings are such a big deal so you want to make sure you have absolute reliability when it comes to wireless technology.

I just do my research, pick the gear I want, and go for it. Now given the supply chain issues we're having these days and along with the chip shortages, my suggestion is first to see if the Rode can work out for you maybe some settings could change and get you the results you're looking for. Maybe later if you can wait for the DJI system go for it. I am however huge on customer service so I can attest that Rode has great customer service and has helped me resolve issues with my system to include replacing a bad system. Again I cannot speak for DJI because I do not use their equipment nor have I experienced their customer service issues.
