RØDE Adds Direct iPhone Pairing to Wireless GO Gen 3 and Wireless PRO With Free Firmware

The update streamlines mobile shoots by enabling Bluetooth pairing in the RØDE Capture iOS app.

Overview

  • The firmware enables Wireless GO (Gen 3) and Wireless PRO transmitters to pair over Bluetooth directly to iPhones and iPads in the RØDE Capture app, removing the need for a hardware receiver during recording.
  • Creators can record from two transmitters in merged stereo or split channels, with in-app output gain control for quick level adjustments.
  • RØDE says the Direct Connect workflow preserves the broadcast-quality audio associated with its wireless systems.
  • Initial setup requires installing the firmware using the receiver and the latest RØDE Capture for iOS, after which transmitters can connect wirelessly without the receiver.
  • The capability, previously limited to Wireless Micro, is rolling out globally as a free upgrade for existing Wireless GO (Gen 3) and Wireless PRO owners.
