Question about RØDE VideoMic NTG

Since the microphone automatically recognises TRS and TRRS connections, this should not be a problem.

Shouldn't be a problem, but do you really need a directional mic for the field recorder? The directionality is quite pronounced, mounted too far out on my rig, it picks up the sound from the background instead of from the interviewee opposite.

Yes, you should be able to "plug it in".
