  • Can you write me a product review of the
The Rode PodMic is a dynamic microphone, the holy grail for many podcasters and streamers. Priced at around $99, it promises broadcast-quality audio at an almost embarrassingly affordable price point. But does it live up to the hype? Let's dive in. First Impressions: The PodMic feels like a tank. Its sleek black metal body and sturdy mesh grille scream quality. It's surprisingly heavy for its size, which inspires confidence in its durability. The included swivel mount offers decent adjustability, and the internal pop filter is a thoughtful touch. Sound Quality: The PodMic shines in the sound department. It captures voices with remarkable clarity and warmth, thanks to its tight cardioid polar pattern that effectively rejects background noise. It's particularly flattering to speech, adding a touch of richness without being boomy. Compared to condenser mics, the PodMic is less sensitive to sibilance and plosives, making it more forgiving for less-than-perfect recording environments. However, the PodMic is a low-output microphone. This means it requires more gain to achieve the same volume level as other mics. This can lead to increased noise if your preamp or audio interface isn't particularly clean. Features and Ease of Use: The PodMic is a plug-and-play XLR microphone, meaning you'll need an audio interface to connect it to your computer. No fancy buttons or dials here – it's all about pure, unadulterated sound quality. This simplicity is refreshing, but some users might miss the bells and whistles found on pricier mics. The Nitty-Gritty: While the PodMic is fantastic for its price, it's not without its quirks. Here are a few things to keep in mind: Requires an audio interface: No USB option here, so factor in the cost of an interface if you don't already have one. Low output: You'll need to crank up the gain, potentially introducing noise. No monitoring: No built-in headphone jack, so you'll need to monitor through your recording software. Limited accessories: The basic package includes only the mic and mount. You'll need to purchase a pop filter and mic arm separately for optimal results. Verdict: Overall, the Rode PodMic is a fantastic value proposition for podcasters and streamers on a budget. Its broadcast-quality sound, rugged build, and simple operation make it a compelling choice for anyone looking to up their audio game. Just be aware of the low output and XLR requirement before you dive in. Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars ... show more

  • A nice compact and great sounding microphone without needing a cloudlifter
the rode podmic is small and compact, hefty and sturdy, and produces a great sound out of the box and elevated with some simple & basic filters. I've had the rode podmic for a while now and use it as my everyday microphone while at my computer. Doesn't come with a stand but from the design I don't need a pop filter so there are tradeoffs but I love this mic and would buy it again for whatever reason if I needed a quality microphone. ... show more

  • The BEST $99 XLR Mic Out There Currently. Don't Think..just BUY!
Update: 2024 and this thing is going strong. I've gotten so many compliments in games like Valorant and in Discord of how good my mic sounds. A great purchase! Pros: -Build quality. This thing is SOLID! There's no plastic on this thing..all metal. No cheapness here. -Sound quality of this mic is truly great especially paired with a mixer with great pre-amps. -Aesthetically the design is very pleasing. Kinda gives off a retro look with modern spin in my opinion. -The price to performance is truly amazing for what you get with the quality. -The form factor is great and compact. Cons: -The mic has a built in pop filter, but its not the best. -Weight. Since this thing is built like a tank, smaller/cheaper boom arms might struggle to stay in place. Final Thoughts: This thing is truly amazing in every way. Not sure if im blown away by it due to it being my first XLR Mic. Or the fact that I have this paired with a GoXLR and the pre-amps on it/EQ settings makes this thing sound amazing. I've received several compliments on my voice when talking in game on this mic. Some noting how clear, punchy, and streamer like I sound. Though I've listed some Cons, there's really none in my book. I wasn't expecting the built-in pop filter to do anything super. If there was one con I'm not a fan of is if you should get a pop filter cover, it takes away from the aesthetic of the mic. Since the mic is pretty compact, the pop filter makes it seem you have a black blob on a mic arm. Again, this is pretty minor all and all. Gotta say i'm definitely a fan of Rode now coming from a Blue Yeti USB mic. Well down. ... show more

  • Great mic
The build quality is solid, and the mic sounds good with no EQ. Great for voice and I've even used it for acoustic guitar. Wouldn't be my first choice for instruments but it will get the job done. Highly recommend for podcasts and voice overs.

  • Affordable, Profession, and Super Cool Looking
Great quality! For $100 you can't go wrong (XLR-only) It is gain heavy for me but easily compensated for in other ways in spite of that. It is heavy compared to some others I have used, I was worried I would have to buy the same brand arm, but I was able to put it on my current one just fine actually. My current one is honestly a low quality one, too - so don't panic if you have a flimsy piece of hardware, it can probably keep up. Sound is great, lot less background noise issues and voice is more clear than prior mic. Love it! ... show more
