Today, I have the RØDE VideoMic GO II in the Audio Hotline Studio! This mic is very interesting, especially when it comes to content creators / YouTubers. I may even say this could possibly be the best microphone for YouTubers... I know I know, it's a bold statement, but I really think this microphone could work for a lot of people! I of course compare the sound of this microphone to a lot of other similar microphones. Here is a list of the mics included in the blind comparison:
Rode VideoMicro
Rode VideoMic NTG
Deity DUO
Deity V-Mic D3 Pro
Movo VXR10 Pro
Rode VideoMic GO II (duh)
(somewhat included: Saramonic VMic5)
Be sure to check out the tests and audio samples and see if this is right for you! Every person has different expectations of audio gear. If the features are what you need, and you like the sound, then it is right for you!
Thanks for watching the Audio Hotline! I'll see you Audio Nerds next time!
