Using the Reporter
• The Reporter is a handheld dynamic microphone,
designed for use in the field of news gathering and
reporting.
• The Reporter features an omnidirectional capsule. For this
reason it is not always necessary to move the microphone
back and forth between the interviewer and the person
being interviewed.
• In a typical interview scenario the microphone should
be held at around chest height between the interviewer
and the person being interviewed, to ensure that
the microphone picks up the speakers in the immediate
vicinity clearly, while reducing the level of any
background noise.

Using the Microphone Flag
• To install your microphone flag, place the mesh head of
the Reporter through the ring on the flag, with the RØDE
logo centred. Push the flag down until it ‘clicks’ in place
into the groove on the microphone head. Ensure it is
properly secured by giving the flag a few light agitations
with your hand.
• To remove your flag, gently press the edges of the
protruding ‘tabs’ on the flag to give the ring some leeway.
Pull flag upwards to remove from the Reporter.
