Rode is rolling out a firmware update for its Wireless Pro<\/a> and Wireless Go (third-gen)<\/a> microphones to add a feature called Direct Connect, which was already available for the Wireless Micro<\/a>. This allows the mics to pair with iPhones and iPads via Bluetooth without the need for a receiver. All you\u2019ll need is the Rode Capture app. <\/p>\n

Rode said it\u2019s able to offer Direct Connect for Wireless Pro and Wireless Go without compromising \u201cthe broadcast-quality audio both wireless systems are known for.\u201d The feature still supports the option to record from two transmitters in either merged (whereby the audio blends into a single stereo track) or split (which keeps the recordings on separate channels to allow for more options in post-production) modes.<\/p>\n

Not having to worry about setting up a physical receiver to link these mics to iOS devices could help streamline things quite a bit for creators. And I can always get behind companies adding handy features to existing products without pushing customers to buy new models. That\u2019s good for the environment, your wallet \u2014 assuming you already have one of these mics \u2014 and probably the company\u2019s reputation. An all-around positive update. <\/p>\n
