The black I2 Bass and Cello Microphone Kit with 1/4" Connector for Line 6 TBP06 Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a mic that has been built from the ground up for smooth frequency response, low noise, and precise polar patterns with deep nulls and natural on- and off-axis response. It can be used to capture natural audio for this instrument.

The I2 microphone is suitable for distance miking that is invisible in front of audiences and on camera. This version features increased sensitivity for distance miking and captures detail for quieter instruments. Flexible close miking techniques are aided by the bass and cello mount, which sits securely behind the bridge with a positioning arm for placement. In addition, the 5' cable is hardwired to the mic and terminates with a 1/4" connector for direct connection to Line 6 TBP06 wireless bodypack transmitters.

Hypercardioid Polar Pattern    For Instruments and Sound Reinforcement    Hardwired Connector    Natural On & Off-Axis Frequency Response    For Uncolored Recordings    Reduced Feedback Issues

The I2 maintains excellent pattern control and frequency response at all angles. It offers uncolored recordings and reduced feedback issues.

Flexible close miking techniques are aided by the instrument mounts, which position securely and gently on the instrument for capturing audio.

Small size and sonic precision makes this microphone suitable for X-Y, M-S, and other techniques that rely on accurate, coincident positioning and consistent patterns.

The hypercardioid polar pattern has a narrower pickup pattern in its front than the cardioid polar pattern. It offers better rejection of ambient noise and the working distance is about twice that of the omni polar pattern. The hypercardioid has a small "pickup lobe" directly behind the microphone and exhibits maximum rejection areas behind and to the sides (about 60 degrees away from the rear of the microphone on either side) of the mic. The hypercardioid pattern works best when the loudest unwanted sounds—like speakers—can be positioned in these nulls.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Original Go will work with Go2?

A: The original Rode Wireless Go and Wireless Go II systems use different technology and their components do not communicate with each other, so at this time, they can not be combined to use in the same system. This may be a possibility in the future if updates can be created that will enable compatibility between the older and brand new components. While the components can not be combined for use as one system, you can operate the original Wireless Go system (transmitter and receiver) and the Wireless Go II system (two transmitters and dual-channel receiver) at the same time. So if you need to mic three people, you can use both systems independently on the same set.

Q: 2. Can this work with Insta360 ONE X2?

A: Yes, the Rode Wireless GO II Single 1-Person Compact Digital Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System/Recorder Kit can be used with a Insta360 ONE X2 camera that is also implementing the Insta360 ONE X2 Mic Adapter.

Q: 3. Can you record audio to transmitter and receiver output at the same time?

A: Yes, the transmitters in the Rode Wireless GO II 2-Person Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder are capable of internal recording while simultaneously transmitting to the receiver for recording to an external device such as a camera.

Q: 4. Can I sync the audio in post (transmitter only) without issue with camera's framerate and dropframe eg. at 30 or 60fps in NTSC?

A: If you change the framerate in post the audio will no longer lock without vari-speed. You will need to play the video back at the same frame rate it was shot in.

Q: 5. Does the transmitter work if hidden and placed behind the subject's back?

A: It will work depending upon the line of sight distance from the receiver.

Q: 6. do you need to plug an external mic into the transmitter? or does it have a mic internally?

A: Nohe transmitters included with the RODE Wireless GO II 2-Person Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder have a built-in omnidirectional microphone, so using an external microphone like a lavalier is optional.

Q: 7. Could these have any possible interference issues if using at a busy trade show?

A: Yes that is possible.

Q: 8. Is it possible to connect more than two transmitters to the same receiver?

A: No. Only two transmitters can be connected to the receiver for the RODE Wireless GO II 2-Person Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder.

Q: 9. can i use headphones with this system?

A: No, the Rode Wireless GO II 2-Person Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder does not have a dedicated headphone output connection. The receiver has a 3.5mm Mic level output for connecting to external devices, but this output would not work with headphone in the same way.
