RODE VC-1 Overview

The Rode VC1 is a high-quality microphone extension cable that offers 10' of additional length between your mic's 3.5mm TRS connector and the 3.5mm audio input of your DSLR/mirrorless camera or recorder.

The VC1 is compatible with microphones from Rode, as well as other manufacturers. It can also be used as a headphone extension cable.

The cable is equipped with a female 3.5mm TRS jack on one end and a male 3.5mm TRS plug on the other. It is well suited for applications that require positioning the subject further away from your camera, or mounting the microphone on a boompole or stand.

Can I use this cable to connect Rode NT-USB MINI to a mirrorless camera?
Asked by: ELENA
No, the Rode NT-USB Mini is a USB microphone and cannot be connected to a camera with an analog audio cable. It is only able to connect to a host device via a digital USB connection (or other digital connections such as Lightning with the use of an adapter).

question

This cable doesn't work when connecting my Rode VideoMic Go to my iPhone 6 - I have a Rode SC7 cable already, but does this not then work when using this VC1 cable with it on a phone?
Asked by: Anonymous
Sorry for the delay in response, it doesn't work for me as well. I have even tried without the cable and the mic doesn't work at all. I hope that this helps.

Will this make a high-quality, lossless connection from a Rode video shotgun mic to a Camera (DSLR or Mirrorless)? Thanks!
Asked by: Eddie
The RODE VC1 3.5mm TRS Microphone Extension Cable provides a high-quality, purely analog connection. Whether the recording is lossy or lossless will depend on the type of digital file compression used.
