Rode SmartLav+

Lavalier Microphone for Smartphones

The smartLav+ is a broadcast-grade wearable microphone designed for use in a wide range of film, television and broadcast scenarios, or wherever broadcast quality audio is required in a discreet, portable format without the complication and expense of additional wireless equipment. With the smartLav+ the user simply mounts the microphone on the talent, connects it to a smartphone or tablet headset jack and records via the RØDE Rec app for iOS, or any other audio app of their choice.

By employing a professional quality omni-directional condenser capsule the smartLav+ picks up sound equally from all around the microphone, allowing for versatility when mounting and ensuring a high degree of user-friendly operation. A foam pop shield is supplied to minimise wind noise and vocal plosives (hard ‘b’, ‘t’ and ‘p’ sounds), as well as a durable mounting clip with in-built cable management. Its Kevlar reinforced cable ensures that you never stretch or snap your microphone under normal usage conditions.

The smartLav+ is compatible with any audio app that accepts input from the headset connection, however it has been designed to pair perfectly with RØDE’s RØDE Rec app for Apple iOS devices. RØDE Rec turns the user’s iOS device into a fully-featured field recorder, with a wide range of equalisation presets to suit various recording situations, in addition to professional editing functions and the ability to publish to SoundCloud and Dropbox direct from the app.

Discrete 4.5mm miniature microphone

RØDE hates Amazon

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2017

Verified Purchase

So let me get this straight, RØDE. I purchased a microphone that bears all the marks of being a genuine smartLav+, right down to the leatherette case and etched company logo on the mic clip. But because I bought it from Amazon, you're not going to give me a one-year warranty? How many fingers am I holding up right now?

Great product and they stand by it 100%

Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2018

Verified Purchase

I purchased the Rode mic after a few friends recommended it to me. It was my first lavalier mic so I didn't know what to expect but the sound quality was great and the app is simple but handy. It's surprising how much quality you can get out of such a tiny device.

Fast forward over a year and well past its warranty, my Rode mic caught on my collar when I went to take it off and I tugged too hard on the cord which caused it to separate from the microphone itself and pretty much destroy the mic. I was bummed and immediately thought "There goes $79 bucks". But I emailed Rode and explained the situation and they responded within 24 hours and offered to send me a brand new mic free of charge. I now have my new mic, and I'll get back to recording and be a little more careful with my mic.

Thanks, Rode!

Don't waste your money - You need an app to make it work and the app doesn't work.

Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2018

Verified Purchase

I have never wrote a negative review like this before, but this microphone is a waste of money. To make it work, you need download Rode's app. Sadly, the app constantly freezes and it is so hard to manage when you are in front of a camera juggling a bunch of things. It is advertised as free, but you can't do much with the free version. You have to buy the app to be able to use it to use it to its full potential. So until they come up with a better app that works fast and easy to manage, I wouldn't buy this microphone.

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2016

Verified Purchase

I wanted a small microphone to use when I am live streaming from my iPhone to both Facebook and Periscope, something that would sound much better to the listener than the built-in microphone on my iPhone, this did the job perfectly! When I go back and watch my live streams before getting this Lav mic and I compare them to my current live streams with it, the difference is night and day.

About the microphone itself, the cable is plenty long enough to connect to the smart-phone in my pocket and attach the microphone to my shirt. The build quality is great. The clip is very strong and you will not have to worry about the microphone getting detached from your shirt when using it. The microphone is small enough that most people probably will not notice it if you are on camera when streaming.

Tip; face the microphone upside down on your shirt to avoid the sound of you breathing when recording,

the actual microphone is very good quality for the price. The Rode Rec app, however, is awful. Countless times I have finished recording only to go into the app to realize that it decided to stop recording halfway through. Sometimes it won't upload it to dropbox/soundcloud and it becomes a wasted day

App cost extra, and is also garbage

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2018

Verified Purchase

The Rode Rec app is unacceptable. It costs $6 first of all, and it has the most atrocious interface I've ever seen. Once you've recorded the audio file, you have to jump through many hoops to access it. Having to e-mail myself every single audio file is ridiculous, and that is the easiest option.

The last update the app recieved was probably over 5 years ago. It is entirely impossible to respect a company so negligent with their tools, regardless of whether they make good
microphones.

Yes. Unreal Audio Recordings From a Cell Phone.

Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2018

Verified Purchase

This mic is unreal. If you record voice-overs for videos or podcasts or whatever, this allows you to do high-quality work on your cell phone, tablet, notebook, or possibly whatever device you use to record audio. I was a little skeptical because I figured my cell phone audio recording system might have several weak links, not just the microphone. Turns out the rest of the audio recording pipeline on my cellphone is reasonably solid, so using this microphone makes an astounding difference on my cell phone. And it makes outstanding recordings on my PC as well.

If you make videos or record podcasts (especially on the go), I can't recommend this mic enough. I should have bought it long ago. Makes a huge difference. You can honestly record using this mic alone on a cell phone using any recording app in a quiet environment and get solid results. If you are comfortable doing some basic sound editing and using very simple VST plug-ins, get the TNT Voice Executor plug-in from Audified and you will get results so good that the vast majority of people (not including audio pros) will be thoroughly impressed with your voiceover/audio.

I added the square trade insurance for a few bucks and I will keep the mic stored in the "pleather" bag that was in the package, so I'm hoping to get plenty of use out of these. Will update this review as needed.

Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase. The difference this microphone makes is astounding. I haven't tried it for voice dictation yet, but I'm confident it will be overkill for that, since the inferior boom-mics I currently use already give me solid, reliable results. Bottom Line: If you're thinking about getting this, get it. No way you'll regret it.

Expensive Great Mic

Excellent mic, but you need to get some software to untap its full potential. Stock, the SmartLav+ picks up a ton of background noise and the quality is not good. I got the RODE Rec app and it sounds way better. It is pricey, but you're getting a quality product from RODE. I have an olympus mic as well and the quality difference does not compare. If you're an indie filmmaker, YouTuber, or need a mic that will reduce background noise by a lot check the RODE SmartLav+ out.

Micro cravate de bonne qualité (zoom h1/smartphone/700d)

Reviewed in France on March 23, 2018

Verified Purchase

Le micro-cravate, c’est souvent le premier choix qu’on fait, quand on souhaite s’équiper pour enregistrer sa voix en vidéo. Ce n’est pas trop cher, et on peut se déplacer sans se soucier de question de directivité. C’est simple d’utilisation, on branche, on enregistre.

C’est un microphone pour smartphone ou tablette. Il est compatible aux dispositif IOS et certains Android.
Vous pouvez retrouver toutes les compatibilités sur leur site officielle.

C’est donc un micro-cravate avec fiche TRRS, je vais pas rentrer dans le détail mais ça veut dire que l’embout, la prise est compatible uniquement sur les smartphone et tablette mais elle n’est pas compatible à l’entrée mini jack des caméras, ou des enregistreurs externes.
Pour ça il faudra s’équiper d’un adaptateur pour pouvoir brancher le SmartLav + à la prise TRS d’une caméra ou d’un enregistreur audio.
Personnellement j'ai acheté le "Rode SC3 Adaptateur pour Smartlav " vendu également par Rode.

Le micro est livré avec une bonnette antipop et vent, d’une pince de fixation et d’une pochette à l’effigie de rode pour ranger le micro.

Si vous avez un iphone, vous pouvez télécharger l’application Rode Rec, que le fabricant à crée pour pouvoir faciliter l’enregistrement. Tu peux visualiser l’onde sonore, régler le gain, le volume, ou directement couper et sélectionner la partie de l’enregistrement souhaitée.

N'aimant pas enregistrer du son avec un smartphone, j'utilise ce micro cravate avec le zoom h1. C'est le combo parfait, je peux ajuster le gain du micro, je peux écouter ma voix en direct avec la sortie casque, et le boitier peut tenir dans une poche.

Verdict : Le micro cravate fait un peu cher en comparaison d'autre micro cravate qu'on peut trouver à un 20€. Mais à la différence, c'est un produit de chez Rode, on est assuré d'une qualité et d'une durabilité dans le temps.

La première fois, j'avais acheté un micro cravate à 20€, et la comparaison, et le rapport gain/bruit est assez flagrant, j'aurai du directement investir dans le SmartLav+.

Je recommande ce produit.

Si vous avez jugé ce commentaire utile, merci de cliquer sur oui, vous me ferez plaisir :)

Records well, but everything else... poorly delivered. Not plug&play as you might expect.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 3, 2018

Verified Purchase

I must say that it is actually decent recording device. Review could end here... though.
Rode's ridiculous focus on Apple environment is truly annoying through eyes of Smartlav+ user. It is dedicated to those of you that have old apple phone (yes they support old ones only-it is all about jack :) ) - Rode app (paid!) is available on IOS only £5.99 sic!). I know you can always find better apps on Android and usually free or for a fraction of IOS equivalent price (i bought Rec Forge II pro for just over £2, it was 'expensive one'. I must say that native app was doing the job well, but I always want to squeeze all juice from my devices. It is not an issue though, Rode does not recommend any particular one for android. Why? What is the point of having good product for obsolete mobile devices? I do not follow Rode's philosophy.
Box and package. It comes with basic cardboard box (no tech specs on it , but I'll talk about it later). Inside there is attached a quick guide... If you expected quick guide about the product, you would be surprised. It is all about mount clip. Yes. mount clip only. Nothing about using the mic. No tech specs, no characteristics of the mic, nothing but clip. You can straight away see that the product and its users are not treated seriously by the producer. All the time you get impression, you got cheap leftover from great Rode's true offer (btw it is in fact costly product and we pay quite a lot in it for branding - manufacturing eng guy perspective).
The only way to get more info about specs is on their website (at least that).

Since it is omni-directional condenser mic, you must be aware that it is capable of recording environment as you actually hear it. Remember you can learn to ignore some sounds, but microphone cannot. It will record your wall clock ticking , fridge, neighbours ... everything. Thus, you need app to cut off its sensitivity dramatically, so that it picks up only your voice and later you amplify it to suit your needs. It is not dynamic, nor one that focuses on one direction only mic-please check what you really need.
What annoys me is that they use meaningless phrases on the box, leaflet and adverts ('professional- grade', 'broadcast quality'... meaningless marketing only).
It is not pro grade product. But it is a high quality (sometimes too high) for beginners and above in audio/voice recording.
Cable length is ok (you get about 70cm of usable cable length, when excluding all necessary bends and loops) for average height person - you can hide your phone in front trousers pocket. I would not recommend it if you need to be further away from recording device (probably rare for such a basic product occasion, but have it in your mind before purchase), or if you are really tall and cannot hide phone in your jacket.
Free advice:
- always record in flight mode
-if on windows surface like device switch of system sound enhancements (recording device advanced properties settings).
-your phone or tablet or PC (if TRRS jack compatible) may see it as headset - you have to define it as recording device only and use other audio output (in some devices it is not that simple) for sound

To sum up, it is a very good microphone for its price, but only for people that spent some time setting up recording devices of are experienced in voice recording. If not- too expensive - you can get your results for less.
There is a lot of misleading marketing info (mainly from Rode itself) that could create unsupported expectations. Lack of any guidance or advice or app for users (the one for IOS can be ignored - supports devices that are not even manufactured anymore!).
Or buy it and play with it for a while - once you understood its properties, it will give you expected results... and will open your way for pro products :)

Einfache und günstige Lösung für hochwertige Audioaufnahmen

Reviewed in Germany on November 25, 2016

Verified Purchase

Vorab: Die Soundqualität beim Rode smartLav+ Ansteck-Mikrofon ist durchweg sehr gut.

Wofür ich das Mikrofon einsetzte
Ich nutze das Rode smartLav+ Lavalier-Mikrofon sowohl an meinem iPhone als auch an meiner Canon EOS D70 zur Aufnahme von Interviews in YouTube-Videos. Für den Anschluss an die DSLR-Kamera verwende ich den Rode TRRS-auf-TRS-Adapter (4-polig auf 3-polig), da bei Smartphones oder Tablets in den meisten Fällen Mikrofon- und Kopfhörer über nur einen Klinkenstecker angeschlossen werden.

Wenn man nicht das in den Smartphone eingebaute Mikrofon nutzen möchte oder kann, gibt es natürlich viele Möglichkeiten zur Aufnahme von Audio in guter Qualität ... alle haben ihre Vor- und Nachteile.

Entfesselte Audio-Aufnahme
Wenn ich bei einem Video den Ton nicht kabel-gebunden aufnehmen möchte, weil ich beispielsweise zu weit von der Kamera entfernt bin oder mich viel bewege und ein Kabel dabei stören würde, dann ist die Aufnahme des Tons per Smartphone und smartLav+, im Vergleich zu den häufig genutzten Funklösungen, eine einfache und vergleichsweise kostengünstige Alternative, die eine sehr gute Tonqualität liefert.

Ich stecke das Mikrofon einfach irgendwo an der Kleidung fest, das iPhone in die Tasche und los geht's. Für die Aufnahme nutze ich übrigens die "Rode-Rec"-App! (kostet ca. 5€ im App Store) Nachteil ist natürlich, dass ich Audio und Video getrennt aufnehme und nachher beim Schneiden beides wieder synchron übereinander legen muss. Solange ich aber - wie bei Interviews - nur eine Audio-Spur habe, hält sich der Aufwand aber wirklich in Grenzen.

Kabelgebundene Audio-Aufnahme
Wer den Nachteil des "Zusammen-Schneidens" scheut und auch nicht über eine teure Funklösung verfügt, für den ist das Rode smartLav+ in Verbindung mit dem 4-poligen Rode SC1 Verlängerungskabel eine ebenfalls günstige Lösung. Entfernungen zwischen Kamera und Audio-Quelle von bis zu 6 Meter lassen sich so ohne problemlos überbrücken. Ich habe bei dieser Kabellänge keinerlei Qualitätsverlust oder Rauschen entdecken können. Aber Achtung: Du benötigst für den Anschluss an eine DSLR-Kamera (wie meine Canon EOS D70) den Rode TRRS-auf-TRS-Adapter, da die Mikrofon-Buchse an der Kamera nur TRS (3-polig) unterstützt.

Mein Fazit: Das Rode smartLav+ liefert gute bis sehr gute Ergebnisse bei einem ausgewogenen Preis- Leistungsverhältnis. Wahrscheinlich wird es Mikrofone geben, die eine noch bessere Audio-Qualität liefern. Allerdings sind solche Mikrofone dann häufig für einen ganz anderen Einsatzfall gebaut worden (bspw. Richtmikrofone) und in der Regel wesentlich teurer. Für meinen Einsatzfall bin ich mehr als zufrieden.

Zum Einsatz an Android-Geräten habe ich leider keine Erfahrungen.

Honestly would expect better from RODE. I'm very familiar with audio equipment and no where on the description (unless they update it now) does it mention that you NEED to buy the (£8) adapter to go from TRRS to TRS for it to work with most phones and all other TRS inputs (The normal inputs that every audio recording device in the world uses)
Very disappointed with this purchase. and I will not change this review until RODE changes the description and stops this false advertising.

Tolle günstige Lösung für Videos in Zusammenarbeit mit einer DSLR oder Handyvideos/Podcasts

Reviewed in Germany on December 22, 2018

Verified Purchase

Nutze das Smartlav+ um eine gute Audioqualität außerhalb des Zimmers zu haben.
Nutze hierbei meine Canon 800D/T7i und filme, gleichzeitig noch das Smartphone in der Tasche mit dem Smartlav+.
Anfangs 1x klatschen damit man später die Audiofiles syncen kann und dann einfach die Audiofile der DSRL stummschalten. Voilà, schon hat man innerhalb von 2-3 Sekunden ein perfektes Audio für Videos :)

Fürs syncen nutze ich einfach Adobe Premiere CC 2018, bei welchem ich auch anschließend die Videos bearbeite. Die Funktion hierbei nennt sich "Synchronisieren". Ihr markiert dabei beide Audiofiles, anschließend "Rechtsklick" mit der Maustaste und "Synchronisieren", nun auf "ok" klicken und schon habt ihr die Audios synchronisiert.

Die Qualität der Audiofile durch das Smartlav+ ist wirklich super. Durch die App "RecForge II Pro - Audio Recorder" könnt ihr noch einmal mehr rausholen, gibt es für ein paar Euro im Google Play Store.

Ich hoffe ich konnte euch hiermit bei Eurer Kaufentscheidung helfen und lege jedem der wirklich gute Audios mit wenig Budget und Aufwand erstellen will, das Rode Smartlav+ zu Herzen :)

Lieferumfang:
1. Rode smartLav+
2. Rode Leder/Kunstleder Aufbewahrungshülle - echt super, somit verliert man das smartLav+ nicht und es geht unter anderen Kabeln nicht unter. Zusätzlich passt der Windschutz für das smartLav+ noch locker hinein, somit hat man immer alles passend in einer Aufbewahrungstasche.
3. Rode Kletthalterung (siehe Bild) somit verheddert sich das Kabel nicht mehr

Update:
Um das smartLav+ mit einer DSLR zu verbinden benötigt ihr noch ein TRRS auf TRS Adapter (SC3 TRRS-TRS Adapter zu finden ebenfalls von Rode auf Amazon).
Von der Qualität her wirklich zufrieden, in Kombination mit der oben beschriebenen App sehr gut (besser als die Standart Aufnehm App von Android oder Apple, die 2/3€ lohnen sich).

Falls euch die Bewertungen geholfen hat, würde ich mich über ein "hilfreich" sehr freuen.

Great for general use and good sound quality, but too expensive. A Boya mike for £15 offers similar quality and has a very long cable (which may or may not be a good thing, but better too long, than too short). Also, a need for an expensive adapter to connect to a 3 connector device (every camera) is ridiculous. £30 for this mike and £5 for the adapter would be quite reasonable.

Great build quality and no need for a battery is a big plus. If money is not a concern, I recommend it. Otherwise, buy cheaper - you might even get better quality for much less.

Très bon micro cravate de chez rode très léger il se porte facilement avec une qualité de son beaucoup meilleur que sur d’autres modèles que j’avais déjà essayé dommage car je ne vais pas le garder je vien de faire les démarche pour le renvoyer car il fonctionne seulement avec des produits Apple mais il est possible de le faire fonctionner avec d’autres produits il faudrat donc investir sur des adaptateurs sa serait beaucoup mieux si rode fournissait le kit complet . J’espère que mon avis vous aurait était utile

Enttäuschend!

Das Mikrofon bietet keinerlei Vorteile gegenüber den günstigeren Versionen, welche hier auf Amazon angeboten werden. Ich dachte wegen der Marke Rode bekommt man hier ein hochwertiges Produkt mit einer sehr guten Soundqualität, jedoch wurde ich zu tiefst enttäuscht. Meiner Ansicht nach ist das Rode Mikrofon sogar schlechter als meine 10€ Version aus China. Selbst für die Vollversion der App muss man noch zusätzlich bezahlen.
Der Aufpreis gegenüber anderen Produkten lohnt sich meiner Meinung nach auf keinen Fall.

Expensive, but good quality.

One of the better options for iphone recording (perhaps the best? Can't say for sure as I haven't tried them all). I am a video producer by profession and we normally use high end equipment for recording in the field, but as a fallback, or to grab a quick voiceover or interview, this does a good job. My wife also uses it to record her video blogs and it's a marked improvement over the built in mic on her iphone 6. It's not something I would want to use by default, though, as it's difficult to guarantee recording levels on a phone. I am a Rode fan and use their mics in the studio. They have a good reputation for build quality and value for money. Personally, I think this is rather overpriced for what it is, even though it comes from the Rode stable, hence the dropped star. Only other niggle is that the cable could have been a few feet longer.

Bon micro-cravate filaire avec un excellent rapport qualité/prix

Reviewed in France on February 24, 2016

J'avais acheté il y a quelques années la première version du "SmartLav" de Rode afin de pouvoir enregistrer des interviews à l'aide de mon iPhone.
Le micro fonctionnait très bien, mais il était affligé d'un rapport signal/bruit tout juste moyen.
Rode s'étant aperçu de ce défaut, le nouveau "SmartLav Plus" présente un niveau de bruit de fond beaucoup plus bas qui le rend désormais utilisable dans un contexte professionnel. D'autant que le SL+ bénéficie également d'une très bonne sensibilité et d'un équilibre tonal remarquable. Des tests sonores disponibles sur le Net vous permettront de constater qu'il est tout à fait comparable, au niveau qualité d'enregistrement, à des modèles réputés, notablement plus chers.
Ce micro est omnidirectionnel, ce qui le rend adapté à la captation de la parole d'une personne sans que celle-ci soit obligée d'adopter une attitude statique pendant un entretien. L'ennui, avec les micro "omni", c'est qu'il sont malheureusement sensibles aux bruits ambiants. C'est pourquoi il est fortement conseillé d'employer le SL+ dans un environnement relativement calme.
D'après mes propres expériences, ce petit micro enregistre très correctement les graves, mais sans pour autant les accentuer, ce qui est primordial pour un dispositif positionné une vingtaine de centimètres en-dessous de la bouche d'une personne qui parle. Le son est clair et équilibré, contrairement à pas mal de micros (même haut de gamme) qui ont tendance à accentuer les hauts médiums et les aigus pour donner plus de relief à la voix.
Et, attention, n'allez pas croire qu'un micro "cardioïde" (dont la "zone d'enregistrement" est plus limitée) serait forcément meilleur. Le cardioïde étant - par essence - plus directionnel, si la personne qui s'exprime tourne la tête vous aurez immanquablement droit à de désagréables variations du volume d'enregistrement...
Tout cela pour tordre le cou à ce mythe répandu chez les néophytes qui voudraient que les micros omni soient forcément de moins bonne qualité. Sennheiser produit des micro-cravates hauts de gamme qui sont omnidirectionnels, et ce sont les plus utilisés pour les productions télévisées et cinéma.

Le SmartLav+ se prête naturellement à deux types d'utilisations:
1) Conçu à la base pour être connecté à un téléphone portable possédant une application d'enregistrement (comme l'excellente "Rode Rec" disponible sur iPhone à 4,99 euros), il peut faire office de "micro HF du pauvre". Vous fixez le micro sur l'interviewé, vous glissez votre téléphone dans une de ses poches intérieures, et vogue la galère! L'ennui, c'est que ce genre de dispositif ne permet pas de faire du monitoring à l'enregistrement. Et vous risquez d'avoir des mauvaises surprises à l'écoute: frottements contre les vêtements, coupures de son, saturations, etc.
2) Pour utiliser le SmartLav+ avec un enregistreur indépendant (je l'emploie avec un Zoom H5), vous aurez besoin d'un adaptateur ( RØDE SC3 Adaptateur jack trrs vers trs Noir ) qui n'est pas donné. Et si vous voulez avoir un peu de recul, il vous faudra également une rallonge ( Rode SC1 Rallonge pour SmartLav et SmartLav+ - 6m ). Vous pourrez alors écouter, à l'aide d'un casque, pendant que vous enregistrez. Ce qui vous évitera bien des déconvenues.

Quoi qu'il en soit, même si les accessoires sont assez chers (le câble Rode est renforcé par du Kevlar), le SmartLav+ est un micro de qualité broadcast - qui n'est pas exclusivement réservé à une utilisation avec un smartphone - dont le prix est pleinement justifié.
Pas du très haut de gamme sans doute, mais du bon matos néanmoins, comme souvent chez Rode.

Great sound - transforms smartphone videos...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 1, 2017

Wow! As we're new to producing iPhone videos, we read up on lots of things, including producing good-quality audio. And time and time again, this microphone was recommended.

Good call! Seriously, anyone using a smartphone to produce videos (and that's a LOT of people) need to invest in a good-quality mike - probably a lavalier like this one.

I'm no mike expert, but I love the sound that this produces. Just plug it into the iPhone (or whatever) and enjoy crystal-clear sound. It transforms videos, seems really well made, comes with a carrying pouch and good instructions. If you're any distance from your subject, you'll need the SC1 extension cable.

Highly recommended!!
