  • It’s small, it’s powerfull, It’s easy to use, it’s productive ! Simply Perfect
Style: Microphone
The Rode SmartLav+ is a wearable microphone also known as a Lavalier mic it is a Broadcast Quality Professional Grade Lavalier Mic or at least that’s what it”s called, it comes with a TRRS jack which is compatible with most smartphones and the reason behind that is because the smartlav+ is mainly made for usage which motivated RODE to make an app for all the iOS users out there to benefit the most from its feautures, however if you are planning on pluging it to your DSLR or your camera don’t get your hopes too high since your camera needs a TRS jack while the SmartLav+ offers a TRRS one ! but on the other hand RODE did find a way around it by making the RODE SC3 Adapter a TRRS to TRS adapter so you can plug this directly to your camera that will cost you 15$ ! + Now lets talk about the mic itself ! It comes in a omnidirectional condeser mic capsule and inside of it is the discrete 4.5mm miniature microphone, the cable is a 116cm Kevlar reinforced cable so don’t worry about the microphone stretching or snaping in normal usage but I would recommand the Rode SC1 TRRS Extansion cable for an extra 580cm ! +The package also includes a foam windshield which feels pretty premium and will help you avoid all the t,b and p harsh sounds and will reduce the breathing noise it also comes together with a durable mounting clip so you can attach to your shirt ! Or anything you want and a cool locking letherate bag to take it with you if you are on the GO + Now I'll talk about some problems, first of all and the most annoying thing, is that whenever I plug it to my PC or even DSLR, the Clip keeps tazing me whenever it contacts my skin, which makes it harder on me ta concetrate on the content I am creating, 2nd things, is the cable, I beleive that it is tooo short for a lavalier mic, but what I did, is plug the smartLav+ to my smartphone and then put it back into my pocket ( which doesn't taze me lol) and then recor on both the msartphone and DSLR, and then later on I sync it in Premiere Pro, which makes it a lot easier and efficient to work with but those are not some serioues problems, and most of them can be fixed by using some commen sense So overall the microphone does an amazing job for it’s 79$ pricetag, and if I had to choose between this or even the seneheiser ME-2 which costs 70$ more I would easily pick this all day long so if you are considering buying both the SC3 and the SC1 Adapter then this whole setup will cost you around 120$ which is a nobrainer for the quality you are getting from this kit 😊 ... show more

  • Yes. Unreal Audio Recordings From a Cell Phone.
Style: Microphone
This mic is unreal. If you record voice-overs for videos or podcasts or whatever, this allows you to do high-quality work on your cell phone, tablet, notebook, or possibly whatever device you use to record audio. I was a little skeptical because I figured my cell phone audio recording system might have several weak links, not just the microphone. Turns out the rest of the audio recording pipeline on my cellphone is reasonably solid, so using this microphone makes an astounding difference on my cell phone. And it makes outstanding recordings on my PC as well. If you make videos or record podcasts (especially on the go), I can't recommend this mic enough. I should have bought it long ago. Makes a huge difference. You can honestly record using this mic alone on a cell phone using any recording app in a quiet environment and get solid results. If you are comfortable doing some basic sound editing and using very simple VST plug-ins, get the TNT Voice Executor plug-in from Audified and you will get results so good that the vast majority of people (not including audio pros) will be thoroughly impressed with your voiceover/audio. I added the square trade insurance for a few bucks and I will keep the mic stored in the "pleather" bag that was in the package, so I'm hoping to get plenty of use out of these. Will update this review as needed. Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase. The difference this microphone makes is astounding. I haven't tried it for voice dictation yet, but I'm confident it will be overkill for that, since the inferior boom-mics I currently use already give me solid, reliable results. Bottom Line: If you're thinking about getting this, get it. No way you'll regret it. ... show more

  • May Be the Best Wired Lav Mic in the sub-$100 class
Style: Microphone
I have used four other lav mics, wired and wireless, and this Rode is by far the best I've used. I make tutorial videos, and good sound is not just important, it's critical. Sometimes, I need to roam quite a distance from the camera, so I tried a wireless lav mic. Not being ready to shell out $600 for the really good ones, I bought a $45 wireless lav mic, and it works ... okaaaay, but I wasn't happy with the sound. Now my setup is the Zoom H1n digital recorder, which is small enough to carry with me, and this Rode SmartLav lavalier microphone, wired to the recorder. So far, this is by far the best voice recording setup I have found. In testing this unit, I fastened it to the front of my shirt, about 4" below my chin, and spoke a number of test sentences, including rotating my head from the far left to the far right while speaking. If you've ever worked with lav mics before, you know this can produce a very distracting difference in sound and volume. With the Rode, the difference in speaking volume was nearly indistinguishable. Additionally, the sound quality of the voice was spot on. Very little background noise, almost zero distracting mouth noise (such as smacks, clicks, pops). I've only been using this for a few days, so cannot yet attest to its durability, but as of now I'm very happy with this item. ... show more
