RODE Microphones ロードマイクロフォンズ PodMic Podcast Dynamic Microphone PODMIC

I was overjoyed by the quality of this microphone. Since it was a used item I was very pleased to see that the physical condition was very good. The quality of the sound was much higher than I had expected.

初めてのマイクとして購入しました。当初は将来的な買い替えを視野に入れたつなぎとして購入しましたが、実際に使ってみた結果、今ではずっとこれでいいかなと思えるくらい気に入っています。 デザインはシンプルで美しく、ビルドクオリティも高くて安心感があります。音質についても申し分なく、価格を考えても満足度の高いマイクだと感じました。 注意点として、このマイクはポップフィルターが内蔵されている設計ですが、そのまま使うとポップノイズが気になるため別途ポップフィルターを併用することを強くお勧めします。 ちなみに、ダイナミックマイクなのでゲインが足りるか少し心配していましたが、ゲインを最大付近まで上げれば十分な音量が取れました。（MOTU M2にて）

しっかりした作り。ソリッド感がたまりません。 見た目がカッコいいのでストリーマーなどマイクが画面に映る人にはより良いのでは？

初めてのダイナミックマイクなのですが、コンデンサーと比べ暖かみのある声に聴こえるようです。 友人達からも、声優しくなったねと言われ凄く嬉しかったです！ 見た目も凄くかっこいいので使い続けようと思います！

見た目が良い。しかもダイナミックなので扱いも楽。頑丈。 ただし音質は5000円のマイク(AKGのダイナミック)から3倍良くなるわけではない。 VCでは誰一人マイクを変えたことに気が付かず。 無圧縮の録音を自分で比較してもまぁ優劣というよりは好みの差だなという感想… でもこっちの方がかっこいいので良い。 音質だけを求めるならもっと安いやつで良いと思う。

I like everything about the mic. The sound. The build. Feels really great. The only problem I have with it are the plosives. Like what the reviews youtube say, you'll need to either put on a mic sock, or place it off axis from your mouth. Or both.

価格も安く音質も良いのでこの価格帯では最も良いです ウィンドスクリーン(ポップガード)は別売りの同社製品のWS2がピッタリサイズなのでそちらもセットで購入をお勧めします 当然ですが、XLRケーブルやオーディオインターフェース、マイクスタンドやマイクアームも付属しておりませんので別途購入が必要です ※注意: この製品はダイナミックマイクなのでゲインが高く出来ないオーディオインターフェースを使用している場合は音が非常に小さいので注意です。音が小さくて気になる場合はゲインの高く出来るオーディオインターフェースかクラウドリフター等のインラインプリアンプを合わせて購入しましょう！ ストリーミングで使用される場合はAG03やGOXLRMINI、WAVEXLRなどが良いと思います

通話だけでここまで必要かという問題は置いておいて、素人耳には音質も良く満足しています。突然マイクに拘りたくなる時期に突入してしまったのですが、こちらで落ち着きそうです。 以前はコンデンサマイク (Blue Yeti nano) を使用しており、打鍵音などを拾いすぎていたのですが、こちらのマイクにしてその問題は解消しました。ゲームでの使用や、静かな環境を用意できない素人はダイナミックマイクを使うべきだと思います。 クリアさという意味ではコンデンサマイクの方が上かもしれませんが、落ち着いた音で聞きやすいのではないかと思います（ほかの方のレビューにも同じことが書かれていました）。 ポップフィルターやショックマウントが内蔵されており、実際録音した音を聞いてもポップノイズや振動音などは感じません。別途購入の必要がないのは嬉しいポイントですね。 また、スピーチ用に周波数特性がチューニングされているそうです。私はAG03用のソフトウェアでイコライザをかけていますが、変に調整するよりはデフォルトの方がいいかもしれないと思うくらいです。 コスパ二重丸のマイクとはいえ、オーディオインターフェースも購入するとなると2万円以上になります（AG03だったら3万……）。少し拘って長く使いたいという方にはおすすめですので、是非検討してみてください。

The build quality, the sound quality, the appearance, are amazing.

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 :)

I absolutely love this mic, it has completely transformed the way my voice sounds on podcasts and voice-overs—it’s warm, clear, and has that rich broadcast tone you'd expect from much more expensive microphones. It feels incredibly solid and well-built, with a heavy all-metal body that screams quality. I’m using it with an audio interface, and once it's properly dialed in, the sound is crisp with minimal background noise, even in a less-than-perfect room. No need for an external pop filter either—the built-in windscreen does a great job. If you're confused about which microphone to get, check this out. First let's look at Dynamic vs. Condenser Microphones **Dynamic Microphones** * Great for podcasting, voice-overs, and live performances * Handle loud sounds well and are less sensitive to background noise * Very durable and can take a beating * Don't pick up fine audio details as clearly as condenser mics * Example: Rode PodMic **Condenser Microphones** * Best for studio vocals, singing, or acoustic instruments * Very sensitive and capture more detail and high frequencies * Can easily pick up room noise, echoes, or background sounds * Usually require phantom power from an audio interface or mixer Now let's check out USB vs. XLR Microphones **USB Microphones** * Plug directly into your computer's USB port * No extra equipment needed—great for beginners * Usually limited to using one mic at a time * Less flexibility to upgrade your setup later * Example: Blue Yeti **XLR Microphones** * Use professional 3-pin XLR cables and require an audio interface or mixer * Provide better sound quality and more control over audio settings * Allow you to upgrade different parts of your setup over time * Require more setup, but offer better long-term value and performance * Example: Rode PodMic with Focusrite Scarlett Solo I hope this helps :)

Heb verschillende mics in studio, dynamisch en condenser. Wilde deze testen ook voor zang. Zonder meer goed, weegt wel bijna een kilo, maar kwaliteit. Zeer tevreden. Verbaast mij dat hij zo klein in prijs is

This is the mic for me. Simple as that. To expand on that first sentence a bit, I've tried quite a few other microphones, but have never felt they captured my voice quite right. The Rode PodMic does just that, and at a price that can't really be beat. I purchased the PodMic for the first time back in '22-'23, but was on a mic-hopping journey, so sold it around that time to try others. While listening to recordings over the years (from this and other mics) I realized the Pod was the one for me and my voice, so I bought it again and have been using it since. Its also a very high quality, well constructed little microphone, feels like an absolute tank. Not only feels that way, I have dropped this thing from about 6' on accident, and it still sounds perfect. Anyway, as said in the first sentence, this is the mic for me. Is it the mic for you? Can't say, but at this price you might as well grab it and give it a shot.
