PodMic USB Dynamic Broadcast Microphone With XLR and USB Connectivity for Podcasting, Streaming and Content Creation (White)

Good Mic. Leaving this review as none of the picture reviews had the white version. I’m using the PSA1+ mic arm with it.

Excellent microphone

Hello, I received the microphone listed as “as new”, however the USB-C port is not working at all. The device only works via XLR. This issue was not mentioned in the product description, so the item is not as described and is defective. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to return the item, but I would like to request a partial refund or another suitable solution. I can provide photo or video evidence showing the issue if needed. Please let me know how you would like to resolve this. Thank you.

Over the moon with this. Not only can I connect this to my rodecaster. But it also connects to my phone so when I want to record voice overs I can plug it straight in . 10-10

This was very good for the buck right, it was a nice crisp mic, no hissing, was USB-C so connect with your iPhone, no interface or 48V required, it even had XLR connection, it was robust made out of metal so I think it would survive drops, was so easy to set up and use with my laptop the compatibility is good, you can adjust the settings easy. But, only a year later it stopped working and the USB-C port fell out. Sad but it was nice while lasted.

Wanted to love this as it is a good pricepoint and it is very compact. It worked for a day then I noticed it wont wake up after my computer sleeps. It will not pickup any sound. I had to restart the rode connect app for it to start picking up audio again. I tried to completely reset the device, reupdate firmware and reinstall all the rode apps. It will show the device but now it wont even show it is connected in any of the apps. Tried different PC ports as well. I will be returning as I shouldn't be having this much troubleshooting for a new device. I was going to replace a Blue Yeti X and it never had these issues before. Will be going for a different brand. This seems like an app/driver issue.

OKAY. If I were reviewing just this microphone, I would have 0 complaints. It's perfect from top to bottom. However, I do have 2 complaints that have knocked this down a star. 1) The microphone came with very minor marks which makes me wonder if this was opened or if it missed inspection somehow, or was used. It is white which does make it a little obvious. 2) This is an expensive microphone. I do not intend to buy another one and certainly will not get just to have it in another color. Why did I order a white microphone and it comes packed with a black pop filter? Do I need to buy the matching color separately if I want it to match? Was this a mistake? If it isn't, this is ridiculous to me. If I ordered a white-bodied microphone it should be standard issue to come with a matching pop filter. If this is a money grab, it right pisses me off for such an expensive product. Even 30-dollar shoes come with properly matched shoe laces.

Bu 2. Rode mikrofonum usb c li olmasına kesinlikle güvenmeyin ses seviyesi aşırı düşük kalıyor ilkini bunun için iade etmiştim bozuk olabilir mi diye 2.de de aynı sorun devam ediyor ses kalitesi güzel olsa bile uygulama üzerinde ses ayarını fullememe rağmen ve mikrofona 2 parmak mesafeden kayıt almama rağmen ses 3 metre öteden geliyor gibi bu kadar para verip 3. Parti yazılımlarına muhtaç ediyor sizi hal böyle olunca kalite diye birşey kalmıyor ortada... ham ses almaya çalışacaksanız kesinlikle başka mikrofonlara yönelin rode markası hayal kırıklığından başka birşey değil (teknik destekle 2 saat bu sorun hakkında konuştuk çözümsüz kaldılar) asla tavsiye etmiyorum birdahada rode markasına bulaşmam...

If you’re looking for a studio-level dynamic microphone for content creation, podcasting, Discord calls, or even professional voice work, the RODE PodMic USB is a phenomenal option. It delivers incredible sound quality out of the box—very crisp, well balanced, and with a rich, “full” sounding profile that brings a very pleasant warmth to your voice. What really impressed me was how close it can get to the legendary Shure SM7B (which runs for around $400) with just a simple EQ. The PodMic already sounds great with its punchy lows and clear mids, but with a small adjustment, you can bring out even more depth, giving it that classic SM7B-like sound profile. While it’s of course not identical, for roughly half the price, it’s remarkable how comparable it is for most use-cases. Another great feature of this mic is the dual-connectivity—you can use it through USB or XLR. This is really convenient if you don’t want to invest in an audio interface yet, but still want studio-level sound quality. This setup future-proofs the RODE PodMic beautifully—if you upgrade your gear in the future, the microphone effectively upgrades with it. When using USB, you also get zero-latency headphone monitoring with a dedicated volume knob, as well as access to internal DSP for further tuning via the Rode Central app. Now, let’s talk aesthetics. This thing is absolutely beautiful. It looks extremely premium on camera—the contrast between the dark grille and the clean white body gives it a very pleasing, modern aesthetic. It feels very solid and well-built too. Whether you’re new to the audio space, or already an enthusiast, the PodMic USB offers fantastic audio quality at a pretty competitive price-point. Highly recommended—it’s become my go-to for everything. I’ve also attached a photo I took of the mic below: (or maybe above depending on where you’re viewing this.)

المايك بطل جاني مثل الوصف ونفس اللون اللي ابيه 👍🏻
