Some might look at the Joby Wavo Pro as a copy of the Røde VideoMic Pro+.... but don't give up on it quite yet! This On-Camera SHotgun Mic has quite a bit to offer and is a really nice balance between what the Røde VideoMic NTG can give you and what the Pro+ offers. This mic doesn't only offer a 3.5mm connection... It is also a USB microphone! In addition to that, this is a Bluetooth-capable mic and has some effects/features that can be adjusted from the Wavo Pro dedicated app!
This mic offers quite a bit, but it's similar in price to the other mics in it's class... SO I OF COURSE DO A COMPARISON!!!!

Mic Comparison Include:
Joby Wavo Pro (Obviously)
Rode VideoMic Pro+
Rode VideoMic NTG
Saramonic VMIC5 Pro
Shure LensHopper VP83F
Audio-Technica AT875R
Oktava MK-012-01
Sennheiser MKH 50
Sennheiser MKH 416

I wanted to include some XLR mics and some more "expensive" mics just to show some examples of different ways you could go as well as what a "premium" product sounds like vs an On-Camera mic.

Check out the testing and audio samples and see if this is right for you! Every person has different expectations of audio gear. If the features are what you need, and you like the sound, then it is right for you!

Thanks for watching the Audio Hotline! I'll see you Audio Nerds next time!
