The RØDE Wireless GO transmitters (TXs) in your Foveo SimplicityCam Kit were set to independently record backup audio files when turned on and connected to the Receiver (RX). Backup files are useful for restoring broadcast recordings which may have been disrupted during the original live stream.
In brief, to upload audio files from your Rode Wireless GO transmitter(s), install the RØDE Central app, connect the transmitter(s) (TXs) to your computer with the supplied USB-C cable, select the recording you want, and click Export to save it as a WAV or MP3 file.
Step-by-step instructions:
- Download and install RØDE Central: If you haven't already, download and install the RØDE Central application on your computer from the RØDE website. Note: You may need to ask your corporate IT administrator to download and install the RODE Central application.
-
Connect your transmitter: Use one of the supplied a USB-C cables to connect the first of your two Rode Wireless GO transmitters containing the recordings to your computer.
-
Open RØDE Central: Launch the application on your computer.
NOTE: RODE Central may prompt you to update the firmware on all three of your wireless units (1 x RX and 2 x TX). After updating the firmware for your Transmitters (TXs), you MUST manually re-enable the back-up recording feature (more instructions here). -
Select your transmitter: In the RØDE Central window, click on the name of your Wireless GO transmitter listed on the left-hand side.
-
Review and select Recording(s): Your onboard recordings will appear, sorted from newest to oldest. Select the desired recording.
Tip: Click on the file name (or date) that looks like it may be the recording you are looking for (it is likely one of the most recent recordings; however, it's possible your recording has a date and time stamp that is wrong). Listen to parts of each likely file to identify the correct one before exporting it. -
Export the audio file: Click on "Export" (in the top right corner). If you are unsure how to export, check out this helpful YouTube video.
-
Choose export options: Select your desired format (WAV or MP3), and specify the destination folder on your computer (we recommend MP3).
-
Complete the export: Click on "Export" again to save your audio file.
Note: If you are working with a Foveo Care Specialist to restore the audio, upload the audio file(s) you just downloaded to Foveo's Dropbox.
