The Rode Lavalier II Review

Описание: Ben is back for the holiday season baby. Let's all gather around the winter festive tree and take a look at the mixed bag of tricks and treats Krampus got us in form of the Rode Lavalier II. It's a long one for those cold winter nights, so kick those dawgs up near an open fire and sip on some sweet coca or just read the rest of this description and go about your day you damn party pooper.

TL;DW
This lavalier is a decent-sounding microphone with build quality issues.

The Røde lavalier II microphone offers excellent sound quality for the price. Slight bumps to the extreme lows and highs of its frequency response give this mic a distinct baked-in vocal boost that some professionals chasing an extremely neutral sound profile may not like.

With a predominantly plastic build along with issues I was having with the mic clip and the seal across the back of the mic capsule coming loose on both my units while using sticky mounts from Ursa, I would find it a little hard to justify the claim that the Røde Lavalier II is truly ideal for the MOST demanding audio and video applications. In my opinion, this offering is more suited for consumers and true professional audio users looking for the same unique form factor but better build quality should look at alternatives like the Countryman EMW which is NOT featured in this video. Long Live @curtisjudd, I stole this idea from him. Xoxoxo Ben
