  • Are you picking up what I am putting down?
Color: PodMic Black
Rode is a well known brand and has been for many years. I expected a lot out of this microphone, and boy did it deliver. The microphone, out of the box, is a simple plug and play set up which make it very consumer friendly and easy to use functionality. The feel of the microphone screams a quality product with high durability in the event you knock it around, or worse, drop it. It has a full metal casing to protect the insides. The size of the microphone makes it easy to work with, though it is on the heavy side. The quality of the recordings are incredibly high. After utilizing this microphone and showing my recordings to friends and family, they were blown away at how professional it sounds. One drawback, and this is like this for all microphones, is the sensitivity of it will allow outside noises to be picked up and that may require some post-processing to eliminate. It is moderately decent at reducing plosives, but I would recommend a wind screen or pop filter for better elimination of that. Additionally, the price range for quality is hard to beat. Pros: Great construction and materials, easy plug and play, Excellent quality Cons: Heavy Overall: I have been impressed with this microphone, even more than my others that I own (AT2020), and will recommend and new comer or veteran to use it. 5/5 ... show more

  • Great mic, but needs a LOT of gain
Color: PodMic Black
This is a great mic for the price but you WILL need at LEAST 50db of gain to make it usable without having your mouth right on it. Make sure you have a good preamp/amp or it’ll basically need to be inside your mouth. Sounds great once properly amped, easy to set up, no delay (but that depends on your interface more than the mic), and it looks good. Kind of heavy which is fine for my use but I wouldn’t want to travel with this thing. Just overall a solid basic mic that does what a mic should do ... show more

  • Chic mic.
Color: PodMic USB Black
Really nice mic. Have been looking for a mic. I tried both the shure mv6 and logitech blue yeti. This rode podmic usb surpasses them both. Not as sensitive to picking up background sounds. Straight out the box and in usb mode works great. Lovely broadcast sound this gives. Excellent build quality. A bit on the heavy side. But atleast my mic arm can manage. So check the weight max for your mic arm if you plan to pick this up. ... show more

  • RØDE PodMic USB Review — The Most Versatile Mic Out Right Now
Color: PodMic USB Black
The RØDE PodMic USB is hands-down one of the most versatile mics I’ve ever used. Whether I’m recording straight from my iPhone 16 Pro, my Google Pixel, or running sessions through Ecamm, this mic delivers every single time. What blew my mind is the fact that it doesn’t even need phantom power. Just plug in a simple USB-C cable, and you’re recording broadcast-quality audio in seconds. No interface. No mixer. No excuses. Content gets DONE. The sound is clean, warm, and professional — exactly what you need for podcasts, voiceovers, livestreams, or mobile content creation. If you’re looking for a mic that adapts to your workflow instead of limiting it, the PodMic USB is the one. This is the creator’s mic — powerful, portable, and ready for anything. In real life. 🤞🏾 #kreatesumn ... show more

  • Top tier MIC, big fan
Color: PodMic USB Black
I have now been using the RØDE PodMic USB for a little over 1.5 years. I have tried the USB option but mostly rely on XLR as I have a GoXLR. This is a beefy MIC, I think if there was an intruder in my house...I may be able to defend myself with just this MIC. The quality is up there with some of the best for me. With enough tweaking with some audio setting you can sound just as good as the popular Twitch and YouTube content creators. I steam and play a lot of games and have had many people I sound so clear, and that It sounds TV (like a sports announcer) level of audio. Reached a whole lot of ranges of voices. Doesn't pick up to much background noise with some tweaking. Everything just fits perfectly. Also it's just sleek looking in general. ... show more

  • A high quality mic for people on a budget
Color: PodMic Black
I got two of these mics for myself and my co-host for our podcast, and I honestly couldn't be happier with them. They are very sturdy mics, and a lot heavier than I thought they would be. I was expecting a lot cheaper material considering how affordable they are. I started using them for podcasting but now I use them for just about everything with audio, including Twitch streaming. These are also excellent mics if you are unfamiliar with XLR setups and aren't a professional audio engineer but are looking to get a professional sound from your audio. I bought a Behringer audio interface and some amazon basics cables for my setup and it was very easy to get everything going and sounding the way I wanted. It also drastically helped with audio editing, switching from Yeti microphones, I don't have to do nearly as much manual work on audio to get it to sound great. I will say, the one thing I did have trouble with on this microphone is the gain. It took a while to adjust it to a reasonable gain level solely because you have to be VERY close to these mics for it to pick up and, admittedly, I am a very loud person naturally so I tend to keep myself a little further back from mics. This isn't really the fault of the mic though, so it is by no means a reflection of the product. Just something to keep in mind; if you are a naturally louder person, and have a louder or more projective voice... you'll need to do some extra testing with these mics. One more thing to add, my co-host has extremely loud S's, which this mic seems to not be great at naturally filtering out. Not unexpected but just note, if you or whoever is using this mic have loud or high-pitched S sounds, you'll really need to utilize a De-Esser in whatever recording software you use. (The mic is very good at filtering out Plosives on its own though, so that shouldn't be too much of an issue). An all-around fantastic product from Rode, and I hope they make some more mics for content creators that are in this affordable category. You've earned yourself a loyal customer! :) ... show more
