this worked in terms of basically 0 latency for recording instruments, but the problem is that it degrades the audio quality so much that I can't judge if im getting a good take when im recording. it sounds like listening to a 64kps mp3 file, sucks all the life out of the sound.
Friend, did you feel this in the Rode Go 2? Your comment really saves me from a bad purchase, I wanted to use a rode go 2 to transmit the live sound of my monitoring mix to a Sony camera, but if it degrades the sound it won't work for me.
@@johannmunoz_gtr yes, the roses degrade the sound quality too much. also bought the DJI one and it also degrades the quality too much to use. it just comes with the territory for now until the technically can improves. also got the TMA-2 Studio Wireless+ and same deal. They only get used for bass now, because you can't hear the degradation with that
5-29-23-You should try this with the dji wirless mic system. I really feel the DJI is better, and it has two mics an a independent transmitter. Please try it out.
Yes, they auto-detect the cable type you plug into them to deliver either stereo, mono, or dual-mono with multiple transmitters. edge.rode.com/pdf/page/90/modules/448/WirelessGOII_Datasheet-PATENT-PENDING.pdf
@eriser I need to update my reply, here. I misunderstood the manual and was not getting true stereo, but dual-mono from the left channel. So for clarity, to wirelessly transmit true stereo, you need the dual-transmitter variant of the Røde Wireless GO ii. For me, however, dual-mono is fine for sketching ideas, but then obviously a stereo setup is required eventually as a track progresses.
Just a question, just in case you tested that. Have you tried to connect a TS MONO cable to the mic input on the transmitter? I'm thinking on splitting the stereo phones output of my device into two mono TS path with a splitting cable. Then, connect each TS to each of the transmitters of a GO 2 dual. This will get me a true stereo on the receiver....should work, isn't it?
Hi, thank you for discouraging me from spending hundreds of dollars on headphone pair :) I still have some questions tho 1. As far as I understand, the headphones will be powered with the Rode battery, yes? Even if I'll buy the bluetooth headphone with battery of 60 hours, it is the "wireless" Rode battery that maintains the connection. So say, Rode advertises 6 hours of battery time. Could you test on your ATH-M50x (or any other non bluetooth headphone) at max volume, how long is it powered. As far as I understand, the higher the impedance the faster it will be drained. 2. Upon looking for similar products, I've stumbled upon DJI Mic, that really fascinated me. Do you think Rode wireless aux method could work on DJI?
You're welcome : ) 1. You raise a good point. Most headphones are pretty passive in terms of power, but in our high-end audio world, it's worth knowing that your headphones will run okay from just a 3.5mm stereo audio input. As far as 'power' - if your headphones are "high impedance", I don't know whether or not the Røde will supply enough power to drive them at sufficient volume. I can only vouch for the Audio-Technica headphones I'm using, and several wired earbuds I tested.Mine are the Bluetooth version, but I never turned them on during my testing, so I don't think the AT's battery was being used at all. As far as the Ride's battery, there isn't a way to adjust the volume on the Røde setup-instead, you adjust it at the output source (the groovebox or synthesizer). I don't believe the Ride's battery would drain at any different rate-it's just transmitting whatever signal it receives. 2. Good shout. I have not tested the DJI mic, but as I understand, it is a very similar product to the Røde Wireless GO II. It very well may work, but I do not know for sure. If you test it, let us know the results!
Owning this setup myself and using it daily I’d argue it doesn’t deal well with line level. Even lowering the sensitivity to the lowest you will get audio but not super clean because it’s expecting a mic level input. You really should get a line level to mic level attenuation cable. They’re like $20 and your audio will be MUCH cleaner.
If anyone's tried using this with dual transmitters to get a stereo signal at the receiver I'd love to know if it works and is semi-reliable for home-studio use. I'm worried it might introduce phase issues or other problems that may be hard to predict. Haven't seen anyone online trying this setup yet :)
so as long as the headphones have a wired input you can do this? EDIT: also you mention you dont use a computer, my problem is I use a DAW (logic) to practice guitar through headphones and hate having cables. So does this work for that situation? I’m trying to remove the cable from my audio unit to my heaphones, not the guitar jack lead
I think this solution is especially suited to guitarists because of the mono nature of the single transmitter (you need 2 for stereo). I'm not sure how you're using Logic, but I also use Logic (just for mixing & mastering) and you can adjust the latency settings to reduce latency, or some audio interfaces will let you bypass Logic and loop the guitar audio directly back to yourself without all the plugin processing, like the Audient Evo 4 that I use.
how are you confirming that this works with stereo? according to the pdf you linked and when browsing the product itself, the dual channel version requires two transmitters. are you saying that the single channel version still transmits a stereo signal (and has actual stereo separation in the output)?
No, you're right, Pablo. True stereo separation at the destination requires the dual-transmitter version of the Røde Wireless GO ii. Admittedly, this is a major oversight on my part, but I can see why it happened. When I first tested it, I was getting dual-mono from the left channel in my headphones, and I assumed it was a stereo signal because my source audio didn't have enough separation for me to notice the difference.
@@synth-studio Thanks for the confirmation. I was really excited at first about the prospect of having a low latency headphone transmitter but I'll have to keep looking 😢 If someone makes a 2.4/5ghz stereo low latency system with swappable batteries they could make a fortune.

For streaming: Røde doesn't seem to publish the streaming bitrate, but since it's 2.4GHz, it's more than capable of lossless audio quality. For internal RECORDING: "...uncompressed WAV format..." "...48KHz, 24-bit audio." From rode.com/en/about/news-info/wireless-go-ii-on-board-recording-and-audio-export-modes-explained
@@synth-studio Thank you. Do they transmit in stereo? A friend just tested it today and It was mono. He transmitted his pc sound to his headphones. If this would perfectly work for transmitting pc then I would love to see someone who can mod his studio headphones with that. An extra akku and maybe built in wireless modmic. This would be the best wireless headset. I wonder how rode can make this 4ms link when others have minimum 16-17 ms.
@@synth-studio The website doesn't mention it being stereo. It comes with one receiver and two separate transmitters, so technically it's "two channel", but each transmitter appears to be sending monophonic signal. At least this is what the available info on Rode site implies (they don't say it outright). But since the device is essentially marketed as a microphone, it'd make sense for each single transmitter to be mono, not stereo. So, for stereo signal to the headphones, it looks as though you'd have to split R & L at the device (an audio interface, say), and use both transmitters in parallel.
