Rode Stereo VideoMic Pro Rycote Stereo On-Camera Microphone

Capture the full sonic landscape of your video productions with the Stereo VideoMic Pro, a broadcast-quality on-camera microphone that brings professional stereo recording to DSLR and camcorder users. Built around matched pair ½” cardioid condenser capsules arranged in a coincident XY configuration, this microphone produces a wide stereo image with natural depth that’s perfect for recording music performances and atmospheric ambience. The integrated Rycote® Lyre® shock mounting system isolates the capsule and electronics from unwanted vibrations, using a single piece of thermoplastic construction that won’t wear out or degrade like traditional elastic solutions.

The microphone’s user-friendly rear panel houses comprehensive control options including a 75Hz high-pass filter to eliminate low-frequency interference from air conditioning and traffic noise. A -10dB pad reduces sensitivity for loud sound sources like live music or sporting events, while the +20dB boost is specifically designed to improve signal quality with DSLR cameras by allowing you to reduce the camera’s preamp level for a lower noise floor and cleaner recordings. The ergonomic design suits various camera types, from consumer camcorders to large-sensor video cameras.

Engineered with practical durability in mind, the Stereo VideoMic Pro features a new Kevlar-reinforced braided cable and improved foam windscreen for better acoustic decoupling and reduced noise transference. The ultra-lightweight, compact form factor includes a billet metal camera shoe mount with 3/8” thread for boompole mounting versatility. Powered by a 9V battery providing over 100 hours of use, this Australian-designed and manufactured microphone comes with RØDE’s industry-leading 10-year warranty when registered.
