RØDE Microphones has now released the TX-M2 microphone as a standalone unit. Previously, the microphone was only available for purchase together with the RØDELink Performer Kit that came with the RX-DESK receiver.
This lets anyone who has an existing RØDELink Filmmaker kit pair up the receiver with the microphone for a handheld setup like presenting to the camera or an interview scenario. The RØDELink system is one of the easiest systems to use with one-touch pairing and operates on the open 2.4GHz spectrum for up to 100m of range.
The Microphone
The TX-M2 mic uses a super-cardioid condenser capsule and is powered by the included LB-1 Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery with an estimated run time of 10 hours. Alternatively, the microphone can be powered by 2x AA batteries for up to 6 hours of run time.
The mic features an easily accessible mute switch and low handling noise
The TX-M2 retails for USD $299.
