When you first receive the Wireless ME, while you can use the units out of the box, we'd suggest a couple of things to perform with the kit before using it for recording to maximize the potential of the Wireless ME.
Update the Firmware
-
Make sure you update the firmware of each Wireless ME receiver and transmitter (RX and TX) using the RØDE Central desktop app on a Mac or PC by downloading the software here.
- This ensures that the latest features and updates are applied to each of the units.
Using the Receiver's Built-in 'ME' Mic
-
Ensure you've enabled the 'ME Mic' on the Wireless ME RX.
- This useful feature allows you to record audio from the TX and in addition from someone behind the camera with the RX in recording scenarios such as interviews.
- For more information about how to enable/disable the ME Mic on the RX, please see our article here: What does the Orange LED indicate on the Wireless ME RX?
Compatibility with RØDE Series IV Devices
-
If you want to use the Wireless ME RX with an additional RØDE Wireless Series IV TX (Wireless ME, Wireless GO II, Wireless PRO or Interview PRO) you can pair them together allowing you to record an additional microphone.
- For more information about pairing the RØDE Wireless Series IV TX with the Wireless ME RX, please see our article here: Can I use a Wireless GO II TX with the Wireless ME?
