Product Information
Full details
The Rode Wireless GO (Gen 3) is a powerful, professional-grade wireless microphone system designed for filmmakers, content creators, and journalists who require reliable, high-fidelity audio capture in dynamic environments. Its key benefit is the integration of 32-bit float on-board recording, which prevents audio loss from clipping or extreme volume spikes, making it an essential tool for run-and-gun production. While it offers industry-leading transmission stability and versatility, users should note that the advanced feature set, such as 32-bit float processing, requires a slight learning curve to fully integrate into existing post-production workflows.
