6. SETUP AND USE INST ALLING THE BA TTER Y Before you can r ecord with your VideoMic Pro, you will need to install a standard 9V battery (ANS1:1604A or IEC:6LR61). RØDE recommends using a high quality lithium or alkaline battery to achieve the best possible battery life.
7. The VideoMic Pro will run continuously for over 70 hours with a high quality alkaline or lithium battery . Battery performance may vary depending on ambient temperature and battery shelf life, so it is wise to always carry a spare battery .
8. SETUP AND USE The VideoMic Pro delivers a mic level signal to the video camera via a stereo mini jack audio lead. The mini jack should be connected to the camera via the camera’ s “audio-in” socket – refer to your video camera user manual for the location of the socket on your camera model.
9. SETUP AND USE The left setting (-10) will reduce or attenuate the signal by 10dB, meaning that loud sound sources will be r educed and be less likely to overload or ‘clip’ the input of the camera. The right setting (+20) will increase the signal level by 20dB.
10. REPLACING SHOCK MOUNT BANDS The VideoMic Pro has been designed with an integrated suspension shock mount, reducing the amount of handling noise that is transmitted to the microphone while r ecording your audio. This shock mount uses four elastomer suspension bands to hold the VideoMic Pro in its shock mount cradle.
11. Once the fi rst end is secured, angle the small square end of the band into the corresponding notch underneath the front or back of the mic body and press into place. Angle the square end of the band into the corresponding square notch on the underside of the mic body Repeat the process for all four shock mount bands.
12. Slide the tapered squar e on the middle of the band into the notch on the shock mount. Note the orientation of the cradle has the shoe mount closer to the rear of the micr ophone Next, slide the tapered squar e on the middle of the band into the notch on the shock mount.
13. DEADCA T VMP FURRY WINDSHIELD For increased wind pr otection, an optional DeadCat VMP furry windshield is available for the VideoMic Pro. The windshield is ideal for situations such as outdoor performances where wind noise may distort the audio quality of the microphone.
14. PG1 PISTOL GRIP The VideoMic Pro can also be mounted on the PG1 pistol grip. This allows independent movement of the microphone fr om your video camera. The VideoMic Pro is mounted onto the PG1 via the shoe mount in the same way you would mount your microphone to your camera.
15. SAFETY / CARE INSTRUCTIONS When not in use, always keep your VideoMic Pro in a cool, dry place, preferably in a camera bag or equivalent to pr otect from dust or damage. When not in use for long periods of time, remove the battery before storage. Do not expose the VideoMic Pr o to rain or moisture.
16. TROUBLESHOOTING / FREQUENTL Y ASKED QUESTIONS WHY DO I GET LOW-LEVEL BACKGROUND NOISE WHEN RECORDING ON MY CAMERA? A low level background noise in your r ecordings is usually caused by Automatic Gain Control function (or AGC) on the camera.
