Hello guys my name is Anselmo Gonçalves I am expert in product RODE Microphones,
we are in Pinnacle Broadcast in Sao Paulo starting a really cool project called Studio
Rode Brazil, the idea of this project is to present to you in a more technical and artistic
Products that RODE offers, I will technical presentations talking about
Products demonstrating features and and beyond this we have other programs with
guest artists talking about their experiences with microphones, so here we go.
Well, today we will talk about the RODE iXY which is a own microphone for Apple devices
(IPhone, iPad and iPod Touch) it is a microphone recording is in stereo or mono
studio quality, when I say Studio quality I'm saying in
recordings up to 24 bits and 96 KHz. Now let's do the unboxing of RODE Ixy,
as you can see, the packaging product, inside we have a brief introduction,
The kit comes with a foam windshield or anti-puff as some know, one carry bag,
a quick guide in English and Portuguese and obviously the microphone, you can observe
is very compact.
As you can see the IXY has 2 capsules configured in the technique called
XY, ie, it has a cardioid polar pattern, a response to ranging from 20 to 20,
Maximum SPL of 120 dB, this means that he put up quite sound pressure without distorting,
is relatively lightweight at only 40 grams, has a signal to noise ratio of 18 dB
and a sensitivity of 8 millivolts, it wants say that it is very suitable for a microphone
you record environments, songs, finally, any recording that requires a quality
very good. For recordings in up to 24 bit and 96 kHz
studio quality as I said earlier, WHEEL provides an application called
RODEREC, the application has a free version and a paid version that costs $ 6 and the download
can be done by applestore. I will use the paid version for demonstration,
just select the application and the first thing to do is choose the SampleRate
and the recording mode, the SampleRate I have 8-96 kHz, the recording mode
can be mono or stereo, and mono can choose only the capsule of the left or
capsule of the right or both capsules added mono after just made these choices
store, select + and the track is already being created. I can already see the sign being modulating,
If the level is too low I can compensate for this analog input with a gain
we will say so and if the signal is still low have a digital gain. Made this choice
just select REC. This audio you this is already hearing the IXY, you may notice
that is a very clear audio, crystalline very true to me and what this ye
being recorded is an ideal choice for meetings, environments, songs, essays ... Anyway, where
recording quality needs to be made. After recording just press STOP
and now this audio you are hearing is Headset HS-1.
After recording file can sharing various forms, we
see how. Simply select the recording, select and the option to share a screen with several
options are open. I can share by Soundcloud, at Dropbox, through iTunes,
by email or FTP, which is an option very valid in radios and TV's.
This was the IXY, one of the releases of RODE in 2013, to find out where to get your access
the site of Pinnacle Broadcast. Would emphasize the importance of acquiring in
a channel where authorized beyond the warranty and support you have all sure to be
buying an original product. Thank you, Anselmo Gonçalves, Studio Rode Brasil..
