Once the software is updated and its activated, is just a case of plugging your phone in and off it goes. There is also battery power status indicator. Green indicates the battery is fully charged, amber indicates medium charge, red indicates low charge, and blinking red indicates very low charge. Most"traditional" shotgun microphones have an XLR output. These are typically longer "professional" shotgun microphones that are perfectfor booming as they offer excellent directionality.The NTG3, NTG4and NTG5 are greatexamples ofshotgun microphones with an XLR output. The only downside of the RF bias arrangement is the relative complexity of the supporting circuitry. Instead of a simple impedance converter and output driver, the NTG5 comprises an RF oscillator to bias the capsule, and an FM demodulator to retrieve the wanted audio signal. Thankfully, squeezing all this circuitry into the slim microphone body is much less of a challenge than it once was, given the advance in miniaturised electronics.
Fortunately, the outdoor conditions here in Scotland aren’t too bad just yet. No severe rain or snowstorms at the moment, it’s just rather chilly. So, I went outside to do an off-axis test. You can hear in the video how well it does at cancelling out my voice when off-axis to the microphone, even at very close range. This is due to its polar pattern which, despite being shorter than many other shotgun microphones, is still quite narrow.This is going to be a long post i’m sorry! Most of you have probably come from the Facebook W212 Owners Club group interested in getting Apple Car-Play / Android-Auto working on your W212 E-Class, especially that i noted that i got it all working for free, which is true, however probably won’t be for most people. Although with the help of this info I’m pretty sure that ANY independent Mercedes specialist (with the right diagnostics equipment) or dealer for that fact will be able to get it working on the vehicles that have the right hardware already installed in the car. (And hopefully i can guide you to a solution if it can’t be done on the hardware you have). I would expect an independent to charge a couple of hours labour for what needs to be done, dealer I’m not so sure but get your wallet out.
The NTG5 is a short, ultra-lightweight shotgun microphone ideal for use in the most demanding recording applications. Featuring a revolutionary acoustic design with circular ports replacing the linear slots found in other shotgun mics, it offers unmatched transparency and a more natural, uncoloured sound. Combined with a tightly controlled frequency response, smooth off-axis response, and very low self-noise (just 10dBA), the NTG5 sounds spectacular in a wide variety of applications, particularly location recording and demanding filmmaking scenarios where superlative audio is the imperative. No excuses. The active part of the line tube of the NTG5 is the same length as the NTG3, maintaining the directional characteristics of shotgun-style mics. Technologie de polarisation RF et vernis de tropicalisation, pour garantir une parfaite performance dans des conditions difficiles The RØDE NTG5 has some very impressive specifications, which put it into the top range of microphones:Boasting a tightly controlled frequency response and very low self-noise, the Rode NTG5 sounds spectacular in a wide variety of applications, particularly location recording and demanding filmmaking scenarios where superlative audio is imperative. In this case, it just needs activating. You can buy a CarPlay activator and it goes in the OBD port to enable it. (not had experience myself with these) The NTG5’s conformal coating is a thin layer of protective material that shields the active electronics from any moisture or particles, and the RF-biased circuitry is very resistant to moisture. This makes the NTG5 perfect for use in harsh weather conditions.
