The Isomax-2 All Purpose Microphone is designed to effectively capture instruments and vocals in both recording and sound reinforcement.
The omnidirectional polar pattern yields a generous pickup area and evenly distributed frequency response throughout the spectrum.
A wide frequency response and low signal-to-noise ratio result in clean audio reproduction.
The Isomax 2 features an impressive 150dB SPL handling for maximum gain before distortion. This is ideal while close capturing instruments with high transient response.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Necesito un repuesto para el Lyre Shoe Mount dnde lo consigo?
A: You can contact Rode by phone at (562) 364-7400 or by email at usasupport@rode.com
Q: 2. I get that the digital is compatible with only a couple of cameras but works in analog for other cameras with multi-interface shoe. But what exactly do I lose on analog? Is the sound quality different and do the directional patterns change?
A: This unit has 3 pickup pattern options to choose from, Cardioid, Omni, and Supercardioid. The big difference between digital versus analog operation is that in digital mode, the audio source being picked up doesn't have to go through additional analog converters to be printed to the video. This allows for cleaner audio recordings. If digital audio is not available on your camera, the analog connection will still produce quality audio recordings.
Q: 3. If using with a SONY camera through the MI hot show, can you also plug in a lav mic receiver to get shotgun & lav together?
A: In most cases, the analog 3.5mm input on Sony cameras is disabled when using the MI Shoe connection with a microphone such as the Sony ECM-G1 Ultracompact Camera-Mount Vlogger Shotgun Microphone. Both connections do not typically function at the same time.
