Will this work with a laptop? Need the adapter MICON-2? Does a laptop have the 1v power on its mic input?
Asked by: Stan
The Rode Lavalier requires 2 to 5V of plug-in power for operation. It would be best to use a USB audio interface that has a dedicated mic input with a preamp. The interface can supply the proper amount of power for optimum performance and control of the mic. For the MiCon adapter, use the Rode MiCon 5 Connector for Rode MiCon Microphones - XLR (B&H # ROMICON5) which provides an XLR connector and allows the mic to connect to a standard XLR input. For a very basic interface, you can the Polsen XLR-USB-48 XLR to USB Audio Interface (B&H # POXLRUSB48) which is compatible with Mac and Windows, and no drivers are required. It also features a headphone jack with level control for monitoring and the USB cable is included. Please feel free to contact us by phone or through live chat for further assistance and we can help you to find the best options for your application.

How can I wire this instead of using it wirelessly? I know this thing needs power and it won't work when I plug it into a camera with an adapter.
Asked by: Chris
You can use the Rode MiCon 2 Connector for Rode MiCon Microphones (B&H # ROMICON2 / MFR # MICON-2) which will allow you to connect the Rode lavalier mic directly to a 3.5mm TRS mic input on a DSLR or mirrorless camera or a portable recorder and use plug-in power supplied by the input of the camera or recorder.

Hey there! How would I set this up to record a 2 person interview for a podcast? Is there a way to do this with 2x Rode Lav mics and my Roland EdiRoll?

question

My friend gave me his but neither him or I know if it has to have a specific program to work, does it? And can I just plug it in and will it work for iPhone 6plus voice memo?
Asked by: Anonymous
The Lavalier requires a Micon connector to plug into any device. The correct Micon for smartphone use is the Micon 11. Once plugged in, it will become the default audio input device for the iPhone and will work with any recording app.

question

How do I record sound with this mic?
Asked by: Anonymous
This is a multi-purpose microphone that uses different adapters (called MiCon connectors) to connect to different kinds of recorders or transmitters. You'll need to pick the right MiCon connector to use with your gear. I usually use the XLR MiCon connector, and then I plug that either into a Tascam DR-60 portable recorder or else a Canon C300 video camera.

Asked by: Jay J.
It will need an adapter from Rode to convert it to work with the iPhone. I have found this to be a very good mic.
