RØDE PodMic Broadcast-quality Dynamic Microphone with Integrated Swing Mount for Podcasting, Streaming, Gaming, and Voice Recording,Black,XLR

I bought this mic after wanting it for over a year now and it sounds amazing truly podcast quality but there are things you will need too get it running well and without a problem mostly also this mic is super heavy like you can feel the quality just from holding it alone. You are gonna need an xlr cable duh and also a audio interface again duhhh but don't cheap out on these unless you want to get a gain booster which are hard af too buy like finding one in stock that won't break the bank will be like finding a grain of sand. Also get a good xlr cable most aren't expensive and mine was 4 pounds and feels good and won't break. If you are in a windy environment get a pop filter to put over it as the internal pop filter is crap and basically not even a feature. Also if you already have a boom arm or any kind of mic arm it should support it as it supports both 5/8" and 3/8" threaded mic stands so no need for a new one or a janky or overpriced adaptor. My only complaints are the fact they advertise a pop filter built in which I'm sure there is too a degree but it does nothing compared too a real one. And also how on my boom arm it doesn't like too screw on securely as the built in shock mount or stand can turn allowing the mic to move where ever needed means I tighten it as much as I would like but it's not a deal breaker. Overall an amazing microphone and sounds incredible for the price(excluding cables and interface and maybe gain booster if needed) and the fact that with some simple EQ it can sound just like the SM7B which seems too be the standard for mics like these I don't know why when this thing exists. So in short in my opinion (baring in mind i came from a blue snowball condenser mic) this thing is insanely good for the price and I don't think I will ever swap mics now. So if you can afford it get it unless you find something you like more. But if you want a good quality and amazing sounding mic for under 100 pounds then this is the one for you but please do listen to sound tests before you decide as not everyone likes the same sound I like :)

The RØDE PodMic delivers excellent, broadcast-quality audio that is warm and rich, perfect for podcasting and streaming. The build quality is superb; it is very solid and feels professional and durable—it's built to last. However, as a dynamic microphone, it is a low-gain mic and requires a powerful audio interface. For reference, I use the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen and have to turn the gain almost to the maximum to achieve a proper recording level. Buyers without a strong interface (or a separate Cloudlifter/Fidelizer) should be aware of this requirement. If you have the proper gear to drive it, this microphone is a fantastic investment and easily worth a 5-star rating for the quality of sound it produces.

Good mic, don't really get any accessories to connect to boom arm. its also heavy so be aware of that. Sounds good and can see why its a very popular Podmic.

I can't say enough good things about this mic, from the moment I unboxed it, the build quality impressed me considering its price point. It feels sturdy and strong. The sound quality is nothing short of exceptional, my voice comes through rich and clear, with a warm tone that truly enhances my recording experience, this is coming from a Shure sm7b, where my online friends noted that my microphone quality had improved since changing to this mic. despite the lower price point, Its general usefulness makes it a good all round microphone and i would encourage anyone to buy this microphone before considering a higher price point

I ordered this mic during black friday for a very good price considering how good it is. But when it arrived the box was damaged as if it had been thrown onto the floor. The mic itself had a lot of noise because of this, so i contacted amazon and managed to get a replacement. The replacement, yet again, experienced the exact same issues, after some more contacting customer service, they said 'we will give you a partial refund' , great I thought. But turns out, partial meant £14, so now i am stuck with 2 broken microphones. Enough of that, the mic itself is built really well and came in very plain packaging, would say this microphone would be worth it as it sounds very good. However I would try to ensure you are at home when it is delivered so that it doesn't get destroyed during delivery.

Great microphones for the price. Lovely sounds, really easy to work with The only reason I returned these was because I didn’t have the number of inputs I thought on my mixer. Works seamlessly with the rodecaster series of products

Best Mic i have ever had. Built to last and better the a very famous known brand. Excellent sound quality

easy to connect just need an audio interface and xlr cable, very small and out the way whilst still maintaining key features to good audio. oddly enough im a big fan of the simple silver and black old school radio colour scheme look to it.

Ce micro est excellent ! Il a fait franchir un palier qualitatif à mes vidéos ! Il faut juste s’habituer à son fonctionnement (micro dynamique), mais le son est top !

Basta prenderlo in mano per capire che è un prodotto di un’altra categoria. È tutto in metallo, non dà per niente quella sensazione “plasticosa” tipica di tanti microfoni economici e, a livello di costruzione, trasmette affidabilità. Sul risultato finale c’è un abisso rispetto ai microfoni integrati nelle cuffie o a quelli di marche poco conosciute: la voce viene più piena, più controllata e con un carattere decisamente più “da studio”. Per podcast, streaming e registrazioni vocali è una scelta molto centrata, soprattutto se cerchi un suono pulito e consistente senza dover impazzire con mille accessori. Non è il top di gamma assoluto, ma secondo me è uno di quei prodotti che, se sai un minimo cosa stai facendo (posizionamento, distanza, un’interfaccia/Preamp decente e qualche accorgimento di base), può tranquillamente arrivare a risultati davvero professionali. In pratica: costa il giusto, suona bene e sembra fatto per durare. Pro Qualità costruttiva eccellente, tutto metallo Grande salto di qualità rispetto a microfoni “da cuffie” o economici Voce ricca e controllata, molto adatto a parlato Montaggio comodo grazie alla staffa integrata Contro Per tirare fuori il meglio serve un minimo di competenza (setup/posizionamento e una buona catena audio)

Great sound pickup
