The 'every 4 hours' timecode jam will be because the timing crystals in most cameras can vary by a field (half a frame on 25/30 fps cameras) every 30 mins - the Rode devices themselves might be more accurate but this re-jamming will be because of the variance in cameras.

He mentioned It a little bit. He said he did wish they upgraded the actual onboard mics for these bur was dissapointed they are the same from previous versions. You don't get higher audio quality with the bit rate of the file. 32 bit just has more information, so in post, you can bring up quiet sources without bringing up a high noise floor. And on the opposite end, if the source audio is too hit and distorted. It's like dynamic range on a camera or even the data speed which it records at. More information, more flexibility in post.

I was JUST ABOUT to pull the trigger on the DJI mic kit for my first lav set as I start my first YT channel ... and then I saw this. Honestly, I've never worked with timecodes and I have no idea how much 32-bit float will actually improve the sound quality, but this has high quality, more features, and a better price if you consider than DJI does not include separate attachable lav mics, which I was going to have to buy, so that pushes the DJI price up from $330 to over $400. If anyone knows of a BETTER lav mic kit for a beginning KZitemr let me know. This looks like the one to me. I've worked as a voice over with my own home recording booth, so I'm familiar with audio editing and not afraid of working with the extra features in this Rode system.

If I understand it correctly, there is no option to jam sync the rode time code from an external source. This makes the great addition of timecode kind of limited for bigger applications.

I would absolutely love if in future firmware you could jam-sync the timecode of the receiver from an external source. It sounded like in the Q&A that they are working on that.

In a perfect world you could slave multiple Rode kits to a master TC generator via RF or BlueTooth (at the least)

Also - there was a HUGE bug with the RODE and the FX3 - when using the Rode Go II or any rode wireless - into the built in mic port of the FX3 - there was a bad grounding issue - this does not happen with DJI wireless mics - does it happen with the PROs?

Other than that, it looks great.

Good review. The part I found funny is on 14 minutes, where you suggest a new device. I think it was just a matter of asking Rode for a TC-1 Deity unit for these mics. LOL! If they can let us receive timecode in the Rode transmitter units, this will make very productive timecode and will let us even have more mics on the field with the same timecode., Timecode will be usable in short shoots with only one camera for now. I have been using it in some sports jobs the Hollyland marks and the menus are awesome and the quality build is the best. The 32-bit float is the attractive part of these units.

Otherwise it seems great. I'm enjoying playing around with it right now.

Great review - However the 21 battery life is really not practical nor well explained. He doesn’t account for re-charge time after your batteries run down. So you can’t shoot again till you’ve put the TX and RX in the case to accept the 2nd charge. So what an hour and a half to wait around with your talent while everything re-charges? Or you have to bring a laptop to power your case while shooting? Kinda defeats the purpose right?
