RØDE VideoMic Pro+ – a premium on-camera shotgun microphone with broadcast-grade condenser capsule, supercardioid polar pattern, and extended frequency response. Features flexible power options including rechargeable lithium-ion battery (100+ hours runtime), dual AA batteries, or USB charging. Equipped with safety channel recording, high-frequency boost, dual high-pass filters, three-stage gain control, and automatic power on/off function. Built with Rycote Lyre shockmount for superior vibration isolation.
The VideoMic Pro+ delivers rich, warm, directional audio that has made it the go-to microphone for countless content creators and filmmakers. Its broadcast-grade condenser capsule and tight supercardioid polar pattern ensure focused audio capture while minimizing off-axis noise. The microphone offers extensive control features including selectable high-pass filters at 75 Hz and 150 Hz for cutting environmental rumble from traffic and air conditioning, plus a high-frequency boost that enhances clarity and detail in recordings.
Power flexibility is a key strength with three options: the included LB-1 rechargeable lithium-ion battery providing over 100 hours of operation, standard AA batteries, or continuous USB power via micro-USB cable. The safety channel feature records a secondary track at -10 dB lower level, providing clean backup audio when unexpected volume spikes occur. Digital switching ensures precise control over gain settings (-10 dB, 0 dB, +20 dB), with the +20 dB boost specifically designed for DSLR cameras to bypass inferior camera preamps. The integrated Rycote Lyre shockmount isolates the capsule from vibrations, while the optimized foam windscreen minimizes wind noise. A multi-color LED system indicates power source, battery status, and active settings. Compatible with cameras, DSLRs, camcorders, and portable recorders via detachable 3.5mm TRS cable outputting dual-mono signal.
