RØDE Interview GO Handheld Adaptor for Wireless GO

Really high quality little mic handheld adaptorwe used a lot of these and this is 100% the best feeling and looks good with the very nice rode labelno issueslittle pricy maybe but you get what you pay for

When these are on offer at £20 or £22 (whatever it goes down to), they are worth buying and I now have two of them. At the time of writing, Amazon's price is £30.40 down from an RRP of £39.99. They are available pretty consistently online at £22 but the benefit of Amazon is Prime next day delivery (whereas you'll probably pay a delivery fee elsewhere).Why buy one? It is essential to at least look professional when presenting or interviewing - please do NOT hold your Rode Wireless Go transmitter by the fingertips and attempt to get it close enough to somebody.The foam windscreen does a very good job of cutting wind noise and it is properly shaped to go over the microphone transmitter. The mount is a proper cold-shoe mount, so you could theoretically use the handheld grip to mount anything that use the same mounting. Surprisingly light but this means that it stays balanced because - guess what - the microphone transmitters are also very lightweight.

The media could not be loaded. When these first appeared, I was a bit sceptical of the value of it. But having used the Wireless Go II a few times, I discovered the value. Having a mic that can be passed about is really useful. It also avoids the mic becoming lost or being forgotten. installation is really really easy. Just slide the clip into the holder. It is a solid yet easy fit. Then either use the wind muff that came with the wireless mic, or pop on the "toilet brush" (as my wife called it). But you'd probably have to remove the muff first, and I'm sure the muff will be more effective in windy conditions, than the foam toilet brushAlthough it appears to be plastic it's high grade and has a cold feel as if it's a metal alloy. It's light weight and almost perfectly shaped for an easy grip, yet unlikely to slip, thanks to a slightly rough surface. Unlike a standard microphone it has a really long handle which is handy to share it in interview settings.So what's not to like? Well when these first came out, the price. I bought it used and noticed the new price now significantly reduce to a fair level. The other thing I don't like is that there's no way of switching on and off without partly removing the mic from the holder. The power button is concealed and inaccessible when fitted. This does mean that there's no chance of anyone accidentally switching this off of course. And given the great battery life, perhaps that's a blessing.Furthermore if the foam is fitted, the power and connectivity lights are hidden. So not only can you not quickly switch on and off, there's a good chance you'd forget to switch it off after using it, especially if you don't need to remove the mic. This may not be an issue as the battery lasts hours. But you'd probably only discover when you go to use it again to find it's empty.I was so impressed with what I received I immediately bought a second one. I now have the option of two hand-held radio mics, which avoids having to buy an entirely new system. The clip-on mic is something that needs fitting and very inconvenient if you're doing interviews. With one of these, you can simply share the mic like a sports interview, or wear a clipped one and use this for your subject.If you have the Rode wireless Go system, you need this

The package shows the microphone system with it. It doesn't come it and it is very expensive. It's a good mic however but can't be used

Excellent. I have two. Well worth the money. Light but well built and easy to pack/carry to locations

I love Rode and love this mic holder makes it so effortless and professional to show up to any event and do interview style content - it’s been one of my best investments for my content creation business. Super lightweight as well!

Great for making tiktoks

Turn your wireless go into a hand held. Had to do this and on the spur of the moment for a stand up gig and bought this. It does the job, It's not terrible. But I'm wondering if Rode have a Raiders of the Lost Ark style warehouse full of these as the notion of economy of scale forehand l doesn't seem to have been applied to this piece of plastic. And maybe at some point In the future they'll flood the market with them at a 3rd of the current price because.For what it is it should have come with the Wireless Go as a standard accessory. If I had a 3D printer I'd probably would've made this as a project. (With a threaded rod for presence) It's handy but for a basic injection mould with a tuppence foam shield it really is way over the odds price wise.
