RØDE SC3 3.5mm TRRS to TRS Adaptor, Modem

Product Information

Trying to get your audio devices to work together can be a headache if you don’t know the difference between the connectors they use. Even then, there are so many different combinations of connection types. Mic in; Line in; Headphones (then Earbuds; On-ear; over-ear); Headset (with same 3 options above); External Speakers. By connecting one channel at a time, I got two channels that would give a very faint signal, almost inaudible, and one that would give a weak signal to one of the stereo channels only. This was the red connector in the TRRS cable (it's red-white-yellow, with white in the middle). The SC20 is a USB-C to USB-A cable used for connecting the Wireless GO II to a USB-A device. It is shorter than the 1.5m-long SC18 and is only included with the Wireless GO II (not sold separately). SC21 – Lightning Accessory Cable (USB-C to Lightning, 300mm) The SC11 is a TRS splitter cable for connecting two mono outputs to a single stereo input. It is particularly suitable for connecting two microphones to a camera, for example, dual Wireless GO receivers, or a Wireless GO and a VideoMic. SC15 – Lightning Accessory Cable (USB-C to Lightning)

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. The adapter cable will automatically disable the inline microphone that may be present on your earphones or headphones. The adapter cable ensures that the recorded sound comes solely from the Shure MOTIV device and not the microphone of your earphones or headset.A TS or Tip Sleeve plug has two conductors and can exist at least as 1/4″ and 3.5mm, and can be used with mono unbalanced connections, at microphone level, line level or speaker level. TRS A TRRS or Tip Ring Ring Sleeve plug has four conductors and is very popular with 3.5mm, and can be used with stereo unbalanced audio with video… or with stereo unbalanced audio plus a mono microphone conductor. The TRRS connector is extremely popular with smartphones and tablets, and to some degree with computers, including Chromebooks and Macs. Unfortunately, there are two conflicting standards associated with its use with stereo unbalanced audio plus a mono microphone conductor.

By connecting two at a time, I found out that the yellow and white connectors together get very noisy and weak signal. Now this is where I was surprised: using both red and yellow or red and white gives me a clear signal, although not as powerful as I get when connecting a computer's sound output to the same sound system (using s TRS-TRS setup). The SC10 is a TRRS to TRRS cable designed to connect the VideoMic NTG (which has an auto-sensing TRS/TRRS output) to cameras or mobile devices, but can be used with any TRRS device.

When toggling the pan settings in Windows, I noticed that both left and right channels output to my right speaker as if it were a mono speaker. The SC4 is a TRS to TRRS adaptor, designed to allow microphones with a 3.5mm TRS output to connect to deviceswith a TRRS input. This is ideal if you want to connect a RØDE VideoMic, lavalier or Wireless GO to a computer, smartphone or tablet. SC5 – 3.5mm TRS to TRS Cable for Wireless GO II (Not Available Separately) The SC21 is a 300mm USB-C to Lightning cable which is included with the AI-Micro. Similar to the SC15, it is MFi-certified, making it suitable for connecting RØDE microphones and devices with a USB-C output to iPhones or iPads with a Lightning input. SC22 – USB-C to USB-C Cable (300mm)

The SC15 is a Lightning Accessory Cable (USB-C to Lightning) designed to connect MFi-certified USB-C microphones to iOS devices. It is particularly suitable for connecting the VideoMic NTG to iPhones or iPads with a Lightning input. SC16 – USB-C to USB-C Cable (300mm) USB-A – You should be familiar with this type of cable. USB-A is one of the most common connections found on virtually every modern computer (and many other devices). Itiseasy to identify as itislarger than other USB types. You know the one – the classic rectangular USB cable. Similarly, the TCB2 allows use of both a microphone and headset, but the mic input is for XLR mics, not 3.5mm. This is great for linking more advanced, studio-grade microphones to your smartphone. The previously mentioned adapters were all designed to connect one device to another, but there are also cables that can connect three devices together. These cables are called “splitters”, or sometimes “Y-splitters” due to their distinctive shape. On my Dell, when I plug in the TRRS cable, MaxxAudio pops up asking what I plugged in. The options are:In some cases, compatibility between your devices is not the problem - it’s actually connecting them. A TRRS to TRRS adapter doesn’t convert your connection type in any way, but rather provides additional cable length, allowing you to reach otherwise inaccessible locations.
