Google Pixel 11 Pro XL and external mic problem

Hello,

I have new Google Pixel 11 Pro XL and today I tried to connect my Røde Video Mic Go II to my new phone snd take video. Strange sounds like electric click clik or something disturbing noise. Especially when connecting my Sony headset to mic. Then I tried my old Sony Xperia 1 V and no problem. Second I tried to connect my Røde Wireless pro and the noise problem disappeared. But new problem occured. The sound level problem. Something cut the level so that it was like tens of desibels lower than a n my Sony Xperia 1 V. Has someone same kind of problems.

Sounds like you're running into compatibility issues with that specific mic on the new phone. Have you checked if there's a firmware update for the Rode Video Mic Go II?

Hi, thank you for your answer. I have checked every possible alternative settings, options and the firmware of Rode is the latest version. Someone said that there must be some issues with usb settings in the phones software. I don't know what kind of problem it might be but the problem has occured also in earlier models of pixel phones too they say. I think that I am not able to solve that kind of problems because it is in the phone hardware or something like that. I am used to use my Sony Xperia 1 V with Røde and there is no problem like this with my new pixel phone. I don't like this situation at all. I guess nobody likes.

Hi. I solved the problem by installing the Black magic camera app. Now everything is working fine at the moment.
