RODE has announced the new Rode Wireless ME system – a compact wireless microphone system designed to give professional audio for video, with minimal effort. The system has the same pocket-sized form factor as the original Wireless GO and Wireless GO II,. There’s built-in GainAssist, as well as a high-quality microphone built into both the transmitter and receiver. The system is compatible with cameras, smartphones, and computers.

RODE say that the “Wireless ME is the perfect wireless companion for content creation, interviewing, reporting, presenting, filmmaking and much more.”

The Rode Wireless ME system is available for order from BHPhotoVideo from $149, and available for pre-order from CVP for £159 including VAT. This makes it roughly half the price of the Wireless GO II system.
