Designed to suit the diverse needs of today's content creators, the Rode VideoMic GO II-H is a portable, ultra-lightweight, on-camera shotgun microphone that makes capturing broadcast-quality audio effortless for podcasting, gaming, live streaming, video calls, and on-the-go interviews. With both analog 3.5mm TRS and digital USB-C outputs, it's versatile for use with cameras, iOS/Android smartphones/tablets, and macOS/Windows computers. Advanced tech like the Annular line tube technology provides a highly directional, crisp sound, ideal for a wide range of content-creation applications. The included foam windshield ensures clear recordings minus wind noise, while the innovative Helix isolation shock mount silences bumps and shakes.

Acoustic Design and Highly Directional Pickup Pattern

The VideoMic GO II-H features the same annular line tube technology as the popular VideoMic NTG and NTG5 professional shotgun microphones. This innovative acoustic design gives the VideoMic GO II-H a very rich, full-bodied sound that instantly improves the audio of your camera, smartphone, tablet, or computer (additional cables required). The mic's supercardioid pickup pattern is highly directional, meaning that it picks up sound from in front of the mic, while sounds to the side and rear are reduced. It can also pick up sounds that are further away from the microphone while still retaining presence and clarity.

Small but Mighty

Weighing in at just 60g, the VideoMic GO II-H is compact and lightweight enough to take with you wherever you go. Perfect for use with compact cameras, mobile recording rigs, or on a desktop as a USB microphone for capturing high-quality audio anywhere.

As Simple as Plug-and-Go

The VideoMic GO II-H has no complicated controls or switches and requires no batteries to operate, so you can get recording in seconds. It connects seamlessly to cameras, computers, smartphones, and tablets, giving you instant high-quality audio with ease—just pick it up, plug it in, and go. No batteries are needed for the VideoMic GO II-H. It runs on plug-in power through the TRS connection to your camera, or it can be bus-powered via USB.

Using the VideoMic GO II-H with a Camera

When being used with a camera, the VideoMic GO II-H is designed to be a simple plug-and-go microphone with no controls or switches, ensuring minimal fuss. You can use the manual gain control on your camera to adjust the input level if required. Use the supplied Helix isolation shock mount to attach the VideoMic GO II-H to your camera’s cold shoe and the included SC14 3.5mm TRS patch cable to plug it in.

Using the VideoMic GO II-H with a Smartphone or Tablet

The VideoMic GO II-H features a USB-C audio output that allows it to be connected to Mac/OS/Windows computers and iOS/Android mobile devices and be used as a fully featured USB microphone. When in USB mode, the 3.5mm TRS output can be used to connect headphones for audio monitoring and playback. Additional cables are required for connecting the VideoMic GO II-H to computers and mobile devices via USB, such as the Rode SC16, SC17, or SC18 for devices with a USB-C input, or Rode SC15 or SC19 for iOS devices with a Lightning port. Note: To use the VideoMic GO II-H with an iOS device, you must use the SC15 or SC19. When using the VideoMic GO II-H with a smartphone or tablet, you can access advanced features using the Rode Central app, including input level and direct monitoring control, a high-pass filter and high-frequency boost, and a -20 dB pad.

Using the VideoMic GO II with a Computer

When used with a computer, the VideoMic GO II-H works as a fully functional USB microphone, complete with headphone monitoring using the 3.5mm output. To connect the VideoMic GO II-H to your computer, you will need a USB-C to USB-C cable like the Rode SC16 or SC17 or a USB-C to USB-A cable like the Rode SC18, depending on your computer's USB port configuration. The VideoMic GO II-H is fully compatible with the Rode Connect app, allowing you to connect up to four of the microphones to a computer, with complete control over the input level and audio processing.

Full USB Microphone Functionality

Plug the VideoMic GO II into your computer, smartphone, or tablet via USB to use it as a digital USB microphone for direct recording to your favourite software. Its integrated analog-to-digital converter operates at 24-bit / 48 kHz to provide full-resolution, uncompressed audio quality.

Windscreen Minimises Wind Noise

The VideoMic GO II-H includes a foam windscreen to minimise unwanted wind noise from light breezes, fans, heaters, and air conditioners. For maximum reduction of wind noise in outdoor environments, consider a furry windshield such as the Rode WS12 (available separately).
