Hi
I've recently got the Rode Wireless Go II, 2 TX and 1 RX. I plug the RX into the mic input with the stereo 3.5mm jack provided. I get each TX coming on L and R line inputs.
In the BMPCC4k settings I choose 3.5mm line input, and you cannot adjust the gain. But the signal looks and sounds very weak. I've read about this in other threads. I didnt find anyone saying anything could be done about it?
But even recording at such a seemingly low level, if I put it in Resolve and up the gain about 25db to a usable level, it sounds ok to me. I would say the signal to noise ratio is quite similar to if I plug the Rode Wireless go II into my Zoom H1 in which I can get a very good signal. (Doing this seems to work better with the Rode at max output, and the zoom turned right down).
How can this be? I was expecting to bring the gain up on the BMPCC4k audio and hear unbearable hiss. How can it be similar to using the zoom H1 with a decent signal
Am I missing something? Do people recommend against this? It sounds ok and surely thats what matters. Of course I want the best S/N ratio possible but really want the convenience of recording straight to camera
Any help would be great before I have a shoot in two days
thanks
