An ideal adapter for lapel mics
Style: SC3
So I was using the adapter that came with my Professional Grade Lavalier Lapel Microphone Omnidirectional Mic to plug into my Zoom H4N PRO Digital Multitrack Recorder, which has the mic port in the back for some strange reason, and it must have gotten bent when I set the recorder down. I bought this adapter as a substitute and it's perfect. It's already angled so it won't accidentally bend, and the female end is attached by a cord so it moves freely anywhere you need it to. It's an ideal adapter. I would toss out the original and just use this. ... show more

It let me use a lavalier microphone with the Rode Me. Worked great.

Perfect
Style: SC3
I don't use this anymore, but when I DID use it, it was very helpful. The reason i bought it, was because I used it for vlogging with the Canon EOS M3, which has a flip UP screen so I can't use the mount for a mic AND see the screen. So instead I bought a Rode VideoMic Me, which mounted to my camera via a wall mount cable holder thing. But that mic is for phones and doesn't work in cameras....without this splitter, that is. So I used it for that and it worked fine. I ended up getting a new camera (EOS M50), which allows me to do what I want, and mount a better mic on top, because the screen flips to the side. So I no longer need this, nor the mic I used it with. But it's still good for those that do need it. ... show more

EXTREMELY USEFUL FOR ZOOM USERS > at least with lapel mics...
Style: SC3
OVERPRICED AS ALL HECK > It does a good job though, needed it for a H1 Handy and a Lapel Mic... :: PROS :: 1.) It's pricey and shipping sucks, but it's super useful for audio work. 2.) A must have for H1 Zoom users with lapel mics. 3.) NO STATIC OR DROP IN SIGNAL PICKUP!!! :: CONS :: 1.) Too expensive in my opinion for what you get. 2.) No PRIME at the time of my order :( 3.) Shipping fee SUCKS!! :: OVERALL :: This is super useful, a must have for any Zoom users with various mics. I would buy another one, but too much money & shipping. Lets you hook up less expensive lapels mics or other odd mics to your digital recorders. I did NOT suffer any signal loss or static with this device.

Essential Buy for Connecting a TRRS Micriophone to Your Camcorder or DSLR
Style: SC3
I bought the SmartLav+ which is a great lavalier microphone but comes with a TRRS (Tip Ring Ring Sleeve) jack compatible with smartphones but not standard 3.5mm microphone jacks commonly found on DSLRs and camcorders. Enter the SC3, a no-nonsense high quality adapter cable from Rode with a female TRRS port and a male TRS jack. Great quality with gold plated contacts and Rode branding, this will solve your compatibility problems using the SmartLav+ or similar microphones with TRRS jacks on your standard TRS compatible equipment. ... show more

does the trick but is not perfect!
Style: SC3
Although this is a handy piece of hardware, it does convert the TRRS to TRS correctly however some digital audio recorders do not except this conversion without a lot of play with the cord. Having said that the overall purpose of this product does meet the expectation. I bought this to convert my Rode Smart lavalier mic to work on my other audio devices other than my smart phone or tablet. In some cases for instance with my Roland R-05 Digital audio recorder, that unit does not except the conversion with ease. However on many of the video cameras, and cheaper audio recording devices it does seem to do the trick and it does it very well. However if you want a true TRS microphone I think the Best route is to buy one that is already wired with a TRS connection. Anytime a conversion cable is required there is always the possibility of difficulty, interference etc. I hope anyone looking at this comment takes what I say with a grain of salt. The item does exactly what it says it does, however to keep it simple it just doesn't work on every device with ease. ... show more

Clean audio for my Canon t5i with TRRS to TRS adaptor
Style: SC3
This adaptor connects a TRRS lavalier microphone for smartphones to my Canon t5i's TRS jack. The mic doesn't work with the camera without this adaptor. Clean audio with no pops or noise. It's kind of expensive for what it is, and it could be longer, but it works exactly like it should. I expect no less from Rode. ... show more
