RØDE PinMic Song

Hey Chad,

I didn't get a call back from Craig at Rode (not that he had to), but I'm fairly sure he got my message about your video. You're featured on the video side-bar of the January 2011 "Rode Work" email newsletter.

There are a couple of other videos too, including one from someone named "Guy".

Enjoy the increasing view count on your video. You deserve it.

Andrew

Thanks for the info Andrew. How do I subscribe to that "Rode Work" newsletter?

Not sure, but I bought some of their mics. :-P

If you register online for the extended warranty, that may well do it.

Hey Chad. How did you get your PinMic? I've had one on order for months and now RODE is saying 30th March!!! Why is it not available?

Chad Johnson · March 1st, 2011, 02:10 PM

I got mine when they first came out before Christmas I think. Maybe early January. Have you tried DVeStore? I think the hurricane in Australia messed up a lot of delivery times.

That was the fun to watch. ...to project that much excitement about a microphone is legendary. Loved it.

Chad Johnson · March 7th, 2011, 11:04 PM

Thanks Craig! It was a fun project. Mostly just an experiment that got way out of hand.

Cheers.

Loved it, I'm looking for one of these now too!
Rode pay attention!

Viral marketing works wonders.

These look really nice, they sound good too.
But how does someone react when you put a pinmic through their expensive clothing?

Chad Johnson · March 12th, 2011, 12:57 PM

Kevin, nobody has complained yet. Maybe someone with silk on would have an issue. I have PinMics as well as traditional lavs, so I can adapt to the situation. There is no one mic, including lavs, that fits all situations. I have 7 lavs! 2 x ME-2, a COS11d, a Tram TR50, a Rode Lav, and two PinMics. Between those I'll figure it out. But in my experience, I find people wear cotton most often.
