RØDE SC4 3.5mm TRS to TRRS Adaptor, Smartphone

Product Information

USB-C – USB-C is a more versatile connection than USB-A in several ways. It allows for a faster data transfer rate, as well as a higher power link, meaning faster charging and the ability to run more power-hungry devices. USB-C connectors are also smaller than USB-A. They are increasingly utilised in computers and mobile devices, as well as microphones and other audio devices. Most microphones have either a 3.5mm, USB or XLR audio output (or a combination of these)for connectingthemto different devices. USB outputs are usually found on microphones intended for use with computers and mobile devices, like the RØDE NT-USB and NT-USB Mini, VideoMic Me range or Wireless GO II. In short, a balanced audio cable cancels out the noise and gives you more clear audio signal. This will give you 4dB extra headroom in audio mixing and mastering.

First, it’s important to know a little bit about the different types of cable connections you’ll come across in this list, what they’re used for, and what type of devices they’re commonly found on before diving in any further. The SC18 is a USB-C to USB-A cable. At1.5-metres long, it’s ideal for connecting USB-C devices such as the NT-USB Mini or RØDECaster Pro to devices with a USB-A input. SC19 – Lightning Accessory Cable (USB-C to Lightning)XLR outputs are used for microphones intended to be plugged into professional audio equipment like mixers and audio interfaces, such as our studio and shotgun microphone range.

These TRS-to-TRRS connectors minimize signal loss and noise and you will get clear audio without losing audio quality. To help you decide which one is right for you, we’ve put together the ultimate RØDE cable and adaptor guide, so you can get recording in no time.
