What is 32-bit float recording and why does it matter?

It stores a much wider dynamic range, so a take that looks clipped can often be recovered in editing. Both transmitters record internally, giving you a backup track on every take.

How does it compare with the RØDE Wireless GO II?

It adds 32-bit float internal recording, timecode and a locking lav connector. The GO II is smaller and simpler but lacks those safety features.

Two transmitters, one receiver, a charging case, cables and mounting accessories. The system is sold as a three-piece kit.

Does it work with a phone?

Yes, via USB-C for modern phones and computers. There is no Lightning output, so older iPhones need an adapter.

How long can it record internally?

The transmitters hold over 40 hours of internal memory for 32-bit float recordings.

Do I need special software to use the 32-bit float files?

Yes. Your editor must support 32-bit float audio to take advantage of the extra headroom.

Our take on the RØDE Wireless PRO

The RØDE Wireless PRO is a three-piece wireless lavalier system: two clip-on transmitters with built-in omnidirectional mics and a receiver, linked over 2.4 GHz with a rated range up to 260 m. Its headline feature is 32-bit float on-board recording in each transmitter, which captures audio that can be rescued in editing even if levels clipped, plus timecode for syncing to video and GainAssist for automatic level control. It suits solo creators, interviewers and small crews who want broadcast-style safety features without a sound bag. Against the DJI Mic 2 and similar compact systems, it adds internal 32-bit float recording and timecode but is bulkier and more expensive than the base Wireless GO II.
