conclusion on the rode. im returning it. i tried all the settings but it will not work to my standards without having a preamp with input/output level meter. which means, better just to use my tascam recorder. the rode as a mic is very good though. very rich sound, but the levels it only provides which are, -10db, 0db, +20db...none of them work well inside my Z's cabin nor gopro. the high pitched noise is too loud when -10dB is used. clips like a mofo at 0db.

they need to provide a dial, not a slide level that goes from -10db to +20db. on the Z, i think -4db to -5db could work well.

hey mr.alcheng

have a safe trip!

yah, as noted above, the rode is a great mic, but not for car unless you have other gear to adjust level.

Hmm, not what I wanted to hear. I can't remember, did you try the Audiotechnica that some recommend? Out of all the external mics you've tried what one performed the best? I'm not sure I want to be taping a Tascam to my rear bumper. lol

Good deal Bro

Busy day with the family today. I was able to stretch the Z's legs after dinner. It was a good little drive. I disappointed a Policeman hiding behind a row of trees (Rosco P Coltrane style) doing radar. I was doing the speed limit and didn't see him until I drove past. He was very sneaky, sneaky.

Now I'm getting caught up on the forum stuff and spending all my rep.

No Z action today for me. I have been hunkered down on laptop/desktop/remote desktop all day prepping, prepping, prepping and repping (this morning). I swear, no matter how much time you get ready for these things, it always seems to be a crunch the last three days. It sort of reminds me of being in college.

At least I have a nice view out the back window -- looking at my Z's all covered up and clean.

Usually those cops able to hide behind the tree or light-post are the newbie cops.... still physically fit and skinny.... LOL
