About this product

Product Information

The SVM is destined to become an Industry standard and not only offers the same sound quality & performance as it’s predecessor (VM) but also meets the industry demand for stereo recording. The X/Y configuration enables the SVM to capture the true ambience of the recording space, while still offering a high level of rear rejection and low noise. Powered by a standard 9v battery, the SVM also offers a power status LED, a high pass filter switch and pad to match most cameras imputs. The SVM incorporates a custom shock mount system and comes completed with a high level wind filter.

    Good but I'd suggest getting the newer model.

    I personally don't like how the mic has a wobbly 4 pole connection to the mount that makes the entire mic move around. Terrible isolation idea. I'm going to try and use spacers to make it stand straight up. Sound quality is ok.

  • Best Video microphone I've ever used & I've used many!

    One of the things I've always battled with my video microphones has been wind noise. If the microphone had a high dynamic range and was sensitive enough to pick up all the surrounding sounds you wanted in your video, wind "boom" would always be a problem. Rode has aptly addressed these issues by providing an 80hz roll-off switch (High pass filter)that cuts the frequencies in the lower end. This rarely has to be used because the "dead cat" wind sock is very effective at diffusing the wind to the point that wind "boom" is nearly cancelled. For very loud environments, Rode has also included a 10db pad (which is very effective but rarely necessary). This effectively cuts the gain of the microphone by a factor of ~2.7. I chose the Rode SVM because of it's ...

  • Great sound quality, kind of clunky.

    I really like the sound quality of this stereo mic, and it has the added features of low-frequency noise reduction and two different recording levels (-10 DB and 0 DB) for different situations. Also, the build of this mic is great...very solid, all-metal construction. The only down-side is the microphone, which I use with my Pentax K7 DSLR, is it is longer than some of my lenses, and it sticks up pretty high from the camera. The result is a pretty imposing piece of equipment that my kids are literally afraid of (especially the "dead kitten" wind muffler), and which I have a hard time fitting into my camera case alongside my other stuff. If they could come out with a slightly smaller version that would have been better.

  • It improves the audio so much. I can't imagine what a difference it makes

  • Rode SVM is one great live performance recording mic.

    The Rode SVM is a great live performance mic. The sound is natural and the mic does not over modulate at higher volumes. I have not had to use the 10db pad, but it will be nice to have for wedding receptions. Be careful of people talking beside you because it will pick them up a bit. I rate this mic 5 stars because of its exceptional performance. If you shoot video you should own this mic. High 5 to the Rode's engineers.
