RØDE SC3 3.5mm TRRS to TRS Adaptor, Modem

Product Information

If you just want to increase the length of your TRRS cable, the PM10EC6 is the cord for you. This male to female TRRS extension cable adds 20 feet to your connection, perfect for situations where you need some distance between your phone and the device it’s plugged into. I bought a OMTP to CTIA adapter which makes it worst. There is no documentation on my Dell specifying which connection the TRRS is. 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 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. The SC17 is a 1.5m-long USB-C to USB-C cable designed to connect RØDE microphones with a USB-C output to USB-C compatible devices. The SC17 is also Hi-Speed certified, making it ideal for connecting the NT-USB Mini or RØDECaster Pro to devices with a USB-C input, such as computers and tablets. The SC16 is a 300mm-long USB-C to USB-C cable designed to connect RØDE microphones with a USB-C output to USB-C compatible devices. SC17 – USB-C to USB-C Cable (1.5m) Here are some permitted and prohibited combinations. This is not considered to be complete. Permitted connection 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. TRSWill I eventually fry my cell phone/tablet if I keep shorting the cables like I mention above? I haven't tried it for more than a few seconds at a time. Headset/Earbuds works pretty well, but Line in is converted to mono. I tried Line in (as experiment to see if I get stereo), no audio makes it to Audacity. I’m very familiar w/Audacity, know that is configured correctly.

Lightning – Utilised exclusively by Apple products, Lightning is an 8-pin connector that carries a digital signal for power or data transfer. If you’ve owned an iPhone over the past 10 years, chances are you’ve come across this cable before to charge your device or connect it to a computer. On my Dell, when I plug in the TRRS cable, MaxxAudio pops up asking what I plugged in. The options are: Actually, the cable adapter (shown above) that Shure is including with many new digital MOTIV devices solves two problems at once. Here I will paraphrase Shure’s explanation from the user manual: 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) 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.

I recently got a Dell laptop with TRRS connector. I got a CTIA adapter with male TRRS that plugs into the Dell. On the other end there are 2 female 3.5mm connectors, labeled Earphone & Microphone. The earphones work fine in stereo. The stereo line in feed is converted to mono, merging both channels together. The older OMTP wiring standard calls for Tip to be used for left audio, Ring 1 to be used for right audio, ring 2 to be used for microphone, and the sleeve to be used for ground. According to my research, this older OMTP standard is found in old Nokia (and also Lumia starting from the 2nd generation), old Samsung (2012 Chromebooks), old Sony Ericsson (2010 and 2011 Xperias), Sony (PlayStation Vita) and the OnePlus One I used to own before migrating to a Nexus 6 for use with Project Fi. If you are using any digital audio device to record with your smartphone or tablet (i.e. via 30-pin, Lightning or USB OTG) including any of the many digital audio devices that work with Android or iOS that I have ever reviewed here in ProVideo Coalition magazine (or any future digital models), do not connect your earbuds/mic —or even a high-end Bose headset with mic— with TRRS to your smartphone or tablet while recording or otherwise using that digital audio device. You must use TRS headset only (or an adapter that makes it TRS) to monitor when you are recording from a digital source in the smartphone or tablet. Otherwise, in many cases, the presence of the TRRS plug will cause your phone or tablet to override the digital source, and instead of recording the pristine signal coming from your digital mic or converter, you will instead be recording from your earbuds with microphone. If you’re a creator, there’s a good chance you use multiple microphones to record with multiple devices in a wide variety of scenarios. This may mean the cable that came with your microphone doesn’t quite do the job in every scenario you need it to – either it’s not the right length, or the connection type is wrong for your recording device. Thankfully, we offer a range of high-quality cables and adaptors to suit a wide variety of applications.

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. 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.

Even more surprising to me: by connecting the free male RCA connector to any of the two connected ones, I get a huge boost in power (though not in all frequencies). I realize this is just shorting out two channels, right? The SC2 is a 3.5mm TRS to TRS patch cable used for connecting microphones or wireless receivers to cameras. The coiled cable means that the SC2 can easily extend from 170mm to up to 400mm. I am not a native speaker of English and I know some terms I use here might be wrong. If so, please edit the question to make it more clear :) 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. The Movo MC3 adapter enables compatibility between smartphones and audio devices like microphones and headphones. The 3-pole TRRS connector plugs directly into your phone’s 3.5mm port, while the device you want to connect it to plugs into the adapter’s TRS port.
