RODE WIRELESS GO II UPDATE, 32 BIT FLOAT & BEST SETTINGS 

So …. There have been a few comments about the 32bit audio … it is upscaled from 24 bit. I wasn’t aware of this until after this video was made. The external backup audio in my opinion is still much cleaner than what is recorded directly to the camera.

They added a "pad" mode for lower sensitivity. Unfortunately the goii don't record in 32bit float. You just can export the 24bit uncompressed recording to a upscaled 32bit float file. If the 24bit recording is clipped you can't fix it in post like a 32bit float file

Thank you so much man, you're the ONLY one that actually did anything showing the 32bit float capabilities. I was really trying to find something on it. Great content as always, salute!

Great video. I've had the GO II for a few days now, and I love it. Thanks to your video I learned more about the settings. In particular the RX. And thanks to your humor, I'm now subscribed.

I love your combination of dry humor and helpful information. It's the perfect balance. Thanks for always making me laugh/smarter. Have a great weekend.

Being able to edit the recorded file is amazing. I'll be selling my Go1 to pick up these puppies soon! great vid btw!

Mine comes next week quick question how do you monitor/set the correct gain in the field

This was a life-changing review, I was deciding between these and the Zoom F2 bt, and it's insane, how the Zoom, while offering 32 bit float, doesn't allow audio monitoring, only visual monitoring on the app. The rode wireless go, I wish had a locking 3.5mm jack, but beyond that, it seems like the best bang for your buck. Awesome job, awesome review, and you're hilarious. I'm subscribing!

This makes me want these even more.... i know when i rented the R5, when filming in Raw I messed up the audio but i was able to salvage it, i was in pure shock but now i know it was because it was uncompressed audio which was dope.... anyways these rode go 2's are my next go to.

Can you use iMovie to edit video and audio with the Rode or do you suggest something else for a novice for video / audio editing

Even though I don't know diddly about audio recording. this will help me so much when my RWG2 arrives. Wish I knew how to sync video and audio, sigh. Thanks, really appreciate it!

Super good info! Makes this mic setup worth the cost alone for pros. On my list for later this year. Thanks

I need this. I held off on the first one because I wanted dual. Almost got the blink but I like Rode and I wanted the handheld mic option.

Mine came in yesterday so keep it coming!

Yo bro which one sounds better the one or the two?

Hey, thanks for the heads up on this man! Random question, are you/were you a hairstylist/barber? Just curious from the way you’re holding the shears in the thumbnail.

FYI, 32-bit float isn’t live yet. You can read about it’s future implementation on Rode’s site. Thinking you just adjusted 24bit audio and were able to recover it.

Great stuff as usual bro. Stay up! 💪🏾

This is actually exciting. Thanks, man!

Nice save! So would you say that if it’s exporting and 32 float from the transmitter that it really is recording in 32 bit float like some of the new recorders from Tentacle and Zoom?

Great video. Nicely composed. One question! What happens when the transmitter's internal memory gets full by recording (Com/Uncomp) files in the middle of recording? Do they automatically loop and record by deleting the oldest file i.e. similar to the car dashcam memory management system?

for what suold I record voice to inner store while I've already record it in video file (on phone for example)?

Hey thanks for the video. I sometimes do sidegigs as a wedding videographer and audio is my weakest point/ least experienced area so I'm going to ask a few questions here lol When using just one transmitter, can you still have a safety channel? When you do merged stereo mode and have a safety channel, are the audio from the transmitter still accessible as a separate recording without mixed audio from the other transmitter? I'm looking for solutions because its merged stereo for safety channel, where for weddings I'd mic up the groom and the officiant, or maid of honor/bestman and rather have it separate and still have a backup for each. Any advice on this? Also any tips on camera audio settings + rode wireless go 2 to avoid what happened to your video and avoid clipping?

Those dialects! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I have had mine about a week now but totally missed the 32 Bit float setting!🙏🏾

Anthony, what kind of camera are you shooting now? The picture looks great!

Always enjoy your videos. Being like I'm as old as your grandmom's mom, help me out here. I have the Rode Wireless Go now and make and edit all my videos on my iPhone 12 pro max. Lame I know. When you use both microphones will they both be captured in the movie clip to send to I Movie? Is the sound quality better in the Wireless Go 2 than in the first edition Rode Wireless?

A.L. - great update to last video, it helps explain a lot.

Thanks for the update. I had no idea it can do 32bit float! never clip again!

That information is superb for 32 bit float worth to buy it

Good one Bruh... had me roll'n with that Peaky Blinders!

Mine just arrived today, charging now! Can't wait to try it out!

I noticed that but stuff happens....really cool that the rode Go II could fix those errors like that. Gangster! I also always have a hard time doing Australian accent 🤣🤣🤣 good one bro

Gotta watch out for the RØDE Mafia bro! But in all seriousness I had some issues with my new Wireless Go II when recording to my Zoom H6 and the gangsters from RØDE swooped in and helped me solve the problems. They are the best! I thought the original wireless go was perfect and they definitely hit a home run with the new ones, especially with the 32bit float!

Great stuff! Thanks! New Subscriber here!

🎶I need Everything!🎶

Very nice comeback :-)

I got distracted by the Rode on your seat belt, but then your sunglasses dominated my attention after that.

Thank you señor. Now I have to buy more gear. Who’s gonna tell my wife?

Great info.

Those sunglasses are straight 🔥 bro

So the 32 bit float on these is not REAL 32 bit float. It’s still recording in 24 but when uncompressed then it “upsamples” the audio when exporting as 33 bit float. This does give the audio some wiggle room but can still clip to the point that even this process can’t save it. Multiple people from sound engineering sites have tested and confirmed that they can clip audio on the rode that exporting to the 32 bit float can’t fix. That SAME audio run through a device known to have real 32 bit float did not clip. I have been able to duplicate this myself using the zoom F6 and F2. They know that your average person will never realize this.

Wait, wait....if you "merge" them, and have both on a safety channel...does that mean both the merged and safety channel do NOT have separate audio track for each transmitter? Can you in fact have a safety track for each individual transmitter or no?

What did you do exactly to your clipped audio? Cause my tests with clipped audio were not recoverable. And B&H website has a disclaimer that it doesn't record in 32 bit.

Your HAIR STYLE like korean pop star

I hope I never end up in the back of a Rode van. Love those glasses.

Dope channel bro. New sub here 🙌🏾

How it compare with the Zoom f2 32 bit

I would like to test electromagnetic radiation of this mic. Version ONE was kinda harsh on your body especially if you got it clipped to your neck.

Pity there is no app for the iPhone or iPad to control the settings on the go, I never take my laptop with me on a holyday.

You're funny. I subbed 😂

Ha ha mate, you're Rode's best accesory ❤️

haha, I just asked on the other video about fixing the sound. This is my answer. lol

I'm laughing from Australia, was pretty spot on 😂😂😂😂😂 the deep voiced ones are called Kiwi's 😂😂😂😂 Jokes

Didn't work for me I must screaming too much into the mic haha..

what has given you a far greater ear and appreciation/understanding of accents (primarily evidenced in this video, Australian, Scottish and English, yes you said English not British, which is already a win) than the vast majority of those in the US?

My Gta character has those same glasses!

It can export 32 floating bit but it´s recorded at 24 bit... In the end the file will have only 24 bit dynamic!! It´s a "clickbaite" feature!

I loose audio sometimes.

lmao bro I could listen to you talk all day. Should get into audiobooks.

update video are better than the reviews!

My guess - Chris Hemsworth used his Thor power to fly over there, do the Rode shakedown, and get back to Australia before dinner time.

So....did I win your contest?? :)

When the Rode GO 2 do not pairing: 1. Switch on the receiver. 2. Switch on the two microphones. 3, Press and hold the number two button "on the receiver" for three seconds until the Wifi icon starts flashing. 4. Then click button number two once and wait for the connection. 5. For the second microphone, repeat steps 3 and 4.

Im not 100% but I think its not true 32bit float. Its upscalled on export - Audio Export Modes - WAV 32-bit float: This exports an upscaled 32-bit float format file.

You are my hero 😂

Did you delete my comment?

Aussies have been good about Covid, so they don't need quarantines, ever, ever again. Never. That's how they did it.

24 bit internal recording 32 bit exporting*

Anthony We All Know Vans Dont have Trunks🤣

Rode Wireless Go II DOES NOT record in 32 bit float! You can export it in 32 bit, but it has nothing to do with 32 bit float recording.

The Peaky Blinders were Brummies

LMAO Australian Gangsters

😂😂😂 Australian gangstas lol 😂

🤣🤣 you got jokes dude

Your barber needs to be taken out. Audio sounds great.

That Aussie accent was terrible lol

Stop making me want to spend money.

Entertaining yet informative! Damn best tech channel on RU-vid!
