Rode Stereo VideoMic Pro Rycote

After Røde equipped their non-stereo Videomic Pro with a Rycote shock mount, they continued the tradition by including one with the Stereo Videomic Pro as well. This shock mount keeps handling noise to an absolute minimum. High-quality recording with your top-notch camera is totally realistic with this mic and shock mount combination. The mic has also received a few other updates in comparison to its predecessor, so with the release of this Stereo Videomic, last year's model is now officially obsolete. Improvements First and foremost, the mount itself has been completely revised. Normally, elastic bands are used in shock mount systems to suspend the microphone, but the bands can dry out and break. Røde's Rycote Lyre shock mount included with the Stereo Videomic is strong enough to ensure years of recording enjoyment. The mic itself has also been updated with two quieter capsules in an XY position so handling noise is kept to a minimum and the recording is as pure and neutral as possible. The cable is attached with kevlar. Built-in preamp Another improvement is the Stereo Videomic's built-in preamp. You won' t have to worry about whether your mic's signal is strong enough, this preamp produces an extra 20 dB gain to compensate. This means you can keep the volume low, which will prevent unwanted background noise from being captured. Lastly, it also features a high-pass filter that cuts off low frequencies at around 75 Hz. So, if you're in the market for a robust, versatile stereo camera microphone, then the Røde Stereo Videomic Pro Rycote may be just what you're looking for!
