I have this mic with XLR connector, I would need to change it to 3.5mm Locking Connector in order to use it with my rode Wireless Transmitter. Is it possible? How?
Asked by: Luciano
This microphone need 48v and that only runs through XLR cables, the best thing to do in this case is to try to get the same microphone with a 3.5mm without a locking pin to work with the Rode Go systems.

question

Will it work well with a kopul adapter to plug straight into a dslr?
Asked by: Henry W.
Yes it will work that way although be careful of how you place the H 3 Countryman due to it rubbing on the subject and getting unwanted noise....my best best suggestion is to buy the h 4 Zoon and use that as the stand alone audio with the H 3 then import sound in separately...hope this helps...
