    Great quality Mic with GREAT sound!
    So i’m very new to this whole world of microphones and podcasts/streaming and such and i wanted to do it right. Started with a Tonor TC30 but quickly realized my voice sounded very flat. I moved onto the Rode xdm100 and i swear i tried my hardest to love it but the software wasn’t helpful at all and no matter what i connected it to, my audio was barely audible. I had to crank up the volume during playback and it just wasn’t working. After seeing and reading TONS of reviews, i was convinced that the Rode Podmic was the way to go. Finally, everything sounded absolutely perfect!! The mic is shorter than the xdm100 and way less bulky. It is literally the perfect mic for me, the key selling point is the usb c connection. I did not want to have to get an xlr connector and then pay spend more on an interface to just record my videos for my youtube. Super simple, plug and play and enjoy!!! 5 stars!!

    Style: PodMicVerified Purchase
    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.

    All sturdy metal with USB-C port and XLR connector.
    I had the Audio-Technica At2020 condenser microphone which is also Metal but doesn't compare to the built quality of the Rode PodMic.

    Rode connect app on (mac/pc/mobile device) allow to change the setting of the internal DSP.
    Changes are stored in the microphone and stay enabled even when connected with USB to a device that doesn't have the Rode App installed.

    This allow you to customize how this microphone sound and then connect it to your work Laptop even if the work laptop is "locked-down" and doesn't allow installing App.

    I also tested it with Ipad and Iphone and it work perfectly.

    I purchased this mic because I wanted a dynamic mic for developing training videos and online meetings. With several folks working from the same home the amount of audio manipulation to make a condenser mic work well (read quiet) was just too much.

    I tried the previous PodMic using XLR and did not like it. My audio interface was under powered and it just didn’t deliver the sound levels needed.

    I decided to give the XLR / USB mic a try because of the versatility and no need for additional hardware and points of failure.

    The mic sounds excellent right out of the box with zero processing and about 55db of gain (via USB).

    You can change the sound quality and tone with the software from Rode.

    However, to record videos using Camtasia you will need something like OBS to add about 10db more gain to have adequate volume.

    The build quality is exceptional and for the price it certainly punches above its weight on sound, quality, and aesthetics.

    One very pleasant surprise was the pop filter which is custom fit to the mic and replicates the looks of the mic. Looks outstanding and works surprisingly well. Handles plosives and sharp noises with ease.

    Bottom line: (Figuratively and Literally) this mic will make your audio sound more professional for a fraction of other offerings.

    Every once in a while you come across a product that absolutely exceeds your expectations.
    This RODE PodMic is one of those products. This is replacing a Blue Yeti that I could never get to work.
    I had some trouble getting this one to work. The world has gone to USB-c leaving me behind. Fortunately for me adapters are available. I had to try a couple of computer ports before the RODE came to life.
    It makes me sound better than I thought I sounded, I really like it.
    It pick up every squeak of my chair or any other noise I make. This is technique, my noisy habits will have to change.
    I was looking for a stand for my new RODE. The one that I liked is very expensive, available only after July 2025 ! It may be available sooner on Amazon.com if you were too look and didn't mind the price.
    You will not be disappointed with this RODE PodMike.
    I highly recommend it.

    Excelente micrófono en relación calidad precio. Se siente robusto y de muy buena calidad y el sonido que da es más que excelente para podcast y demás proyectos similares que se tengan, sólo hay que utilizarlo con buen cable, buena mezcladora y se obtienen excelente resultados. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.
