I had the pleasure to be hired by RoboRace to record sounds of their fully autonomous electric race cars. Yes, their cars can race on their own!!

To my surprise they filmed my work & placed me in this incredibly well done video.

New RØDE WU-2 microphone

April 26, 2021/ Watson Wu

RØDE Microphones has designed and made me new WU-2 microphones (yes, named after me).

This bad boy is a large diaphragm condenser mic based on the popular NT1 body but with upgraded circuitry etc parts to handle extremely LOUD recordings (gunshots and explosions). The cardioid pattern, ceramic finish mic responds to full frequency (20-20,000 Hertz) and can take beating up to 160 decibels. Instead of the side it is an end address style to point at something specific.

Thank you, RØDE!
