## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this product work on a Nikon Camera?**
A: Yes, it will work, depending on what camera you have.  It comes with a TRRS plug which is required when you want to plug it into a cellphone to record audio. (*Reason being that a microphone requires power to run, and a cellphone jack doesn't give off power.  Since this was designed with cellphone use in mind, they used a TRRS plug that would draw power from your phone to run the mic.*)  However, if you want to plug it into a camera, or another device with an external mic jack, you will need to buy the Rode SC3 adapter.  (*Reason being that devices with a jack for an external microphone do give off power to run that microphone, so the extra function of the TRRS tip is not necessary.*)That Rode SC3 adapter will change the plug from TRRS to TRS, which can then be used with your nikon dslr, or other device with a 3.5mm external microphone jack.

**Q: Can I use it on Android?**
A: Do I need to purchase additional connector in order to connect with android phone?

**Q: Thanks for the reviews! Now I'm a bit confused - I'm very happy with the video that my iPhone 5s takes, but I'm just looking for a mic that will allow me to do an interview video with a person standing several feet away. Do I need to install an additional app? I assumed the mic would just help boost the quality of soun…**
A: This will allow for MUCH better audio quality and will lessen exterior, surrounding noise. The audio is in sync with the video. No special app.If you are interviewing an additional person, you might want to mic them up too with same mic.the following Rode adapter;Rode SC6 Breakout Box for Smartphones and Tablets with Dual TRSS Input and Headphone output by Rode Link: http://amzn.com/B00IEM2NM4allows for the input of 2 mics.This would work great. It inputs the audio as a left and right channel, BUT the video records it a mono mixed.hope this helps.

**Q: What if i don't own a smart phone? what other devices is it compatible with?**
A: If you purchase the R0de SC3 adapter, then it is pretty much compatible with any device that will accept a 1/8" input. For example, a Sennheiser lav belt pack orany other device that requires a passive input.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yes.  Unreal Audio Recordings From a Cell Phone.
*by J***J on September 23, 2018*

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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing microphone for the cost, very durable and extremely well made
*by B***T on February 28, 2025*

This is an amazing microphone for the size and cost. Picks up far more than I expected, using it on my Android as an external audio source for my video work. Also use it for content creation live from my Android. Couldn't be happier with it. Other reviewers have mentioned problems with the windscreen and if it's pushed down and click down properly I don't see a problem at all.First Mike had a significantly pinched off cable that was obviously from the light shipping materials, not a problem with manufacturing. It's small enough to fit in an envelope but delicate enough it really should go in a box. Come on suppliers, upgrade that shipping protection for this delicate little microphone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s small, it’s powerfull, It’s easy to use, it’s productive ! Simply Perfect
*by T***T on June 23, 2016*

The Rode SmartLav+ is a wearable microphone also known as a Lavalier mic it is a Broadcast Quality Professional Grade Lavalier Mic or at least that’s what it”s called, it comes with a TRRS jack which is compatible with most smartphones and the reason behind that is because the smartlav+ is mainly made for usage which motivated RODE to make an app for all the iOS users out there to benefit the most from its feautures, however if you are planning on pluging it to your DSLR or your camera don’t get your hopes too high since your camera needs a TRS jack while the SmartLav+ offers a TRRS one ! but on the other hand RODE did find a way around it by making the RODE SC3 Adapter a TRRS to TRS adapter so you can plug this directly to your camera that will cost you 15$ !+ Now lets talk about the mic itself ! It comes in a omnidirectional condeser mic capsule and inside of it is the discrete 4.5mm miniature microphone, the cable is a 116cm Kevlar reinforced cable so don’t worry about the microphone stretching or snaping in normal usage but I would recommand the Rode SC1 TRRS Extansion cable for an extra 580cm !+The package also includes a foam windshield which feels pretty premium and will help you avoid all the t,b and p harsh sounds and will reduce the breathing noise it also comes together with a durable mounting clip so you can attach to your shirt ! Or anything you want and a cool locking letherate bag to take it with you if you are on the GO+ Now I'll talk about some problems, first of all and the most annoying thing, is that whenever I plug it to my PC or even DSLR, the Clip keeps tazing me whenever it contacts my skin, which makes it harder on me ta concetrate on the content I am creating, 2nd things, is the cable, I beleive that it is tooo short for a lavalier mic, but what I did, is plug the smartLav+ to my smartphone and then put it back into my pocket ( which doesn't taze me lol) and then recor on both the msartphone and DSLR, and then later on I sync it in Premiere Pro, which makes it a lot easier and efficientto work with but those are not some serioues problems, and most of them can be fixed by using some commen senseSo overall the microphone does an amazing job for it’s 79$ pricetag, and if I had to choose between this or even the seneheiser ME-2 which costs 70$ more I would easily pick this all day long so if you are considering buying both the SC3 and the SC1 Adapter then this whole setup will cost you around 120$ which is a nobrainer for the quality you are getting from this kit 😊
