Product description

The PodMic is a broadcast-quality dynamic microphone optimized for podcasting. It has a rich, balanced sound, with an internal pop filter to minimize plosives and internal shock mounting to reduce vibration. The PodMic is optimized for use with the RODECaster Pro Podcast Production Studio, but will also offer exceptional results with any high-quality microphone interface.


From the manufacturer

PodMic Dynamic Podcasting MIcrophone
PodMic with AI-1

Offering professional quality, rich sound, high-quality all-metal construction and affordability, there is a reason the PodMic is the leading microphone used on podcasts and livestreams. Whether paired with the ØٷCaster Pro, or used with a high-quality XLR interface (such as the Øٷ AI-1), the PodMic excels in all voice recording applications.

PodMic

The PodMic features an effective integrated pop filter that reduces plosives, making the microphone very forgiving to use. Internal shockmounting reduces rumble and keyboard noises, and the dynamic capsule focuses on the sound of your voice, reducing room tone and other external sounds.

PodMic

Want that classic broadcast sound? A rich bottom end with a controlled proximity effect coupled with exceptional speech intelligibility makes the PodMic the perfect choice for all voice applications.

PodMic

The PodMic will deliver great results with any XLR mixer or interface, but it really shines when paired with the ØٷCaster Pro. A custom PodMic preset, coupled with the studio-grade APHEX processing give exceptional results that your listeners will love.

Excellent value. Highly recommend 👌 👍
Excellent value for your dollar. Highly recommend. Superb quality and build. For those curious about this mic, you will need an XLR preamp. This mic is very gain-hungry, so do your research on what a decent quality preamp is so you don't end up disappointed. I recommend the focusrite scarlet solo preamp at a bare minimum. You will want to set this mic "gain-rich" to get that "podcast sound." For those who have the extra cash, the optional WS14 pop filter is a helpful purchase for this mic. It does a great job removing the unexpected plosives when they happen.

    I absolutely love the RODE PodMic! From the moment I picked it up, I could tell this was a high-quality microphone. The weight alone makes it feel ultra-premium—like it should cost way more than it does. But the real magic is in the sound. Whether I’m live streaming or recording a podcast, the audio is rich, clear, and professional.

    The build quality is also top-notch. It’s incredibly durable, and I have no doubt this mic will last me a long time. The only thing to keep in mind is that you’ll need a preamp to get the best sound out of it. I highly recommend using a dynamite stick or one of RODE’s podcasting interfaces to really make this mic shine.

    Overall, this is an amazing microphone for the price. If you're serious about audio quality, the PodMic is a no-brainer!

    I really did my research before buying and I'm glad that I did. Was looking for a quality dynamic mic that I could use for my computer needs and wow, this thing really delivers! Warning, most inexpensive interfaces will need more power to adequately drive a gain-hungry dynamic xlr mic like this. I recommend an in line microphone preamp, sometimes called a "mic activator" for anyone who intends to plug this into a cheap usb interface.

    I've got it plugged into a Scarlett 2i2 2nd gen and it can just barely can do the job. I'll be picking up an sE Electronics DYNAMITE inline preamp soon so I can dial back the gain and get even more out of this little mic. Also, this mic is not meant to be used with phantom power, so make sure you turn it off when connected to your interface of choice.

    Quick notes on the mic itself. Build quality is impressive! It's really solidly built and quite heavy. I could bludgeon an assailant with this mic and bones would break before this mic showed any signs of damage. All jokes aside, the quality of the locking knobs and the swivel function are great. It does come with a built in pop filter but if you like to put your lips all the way up to the mic for that full and rich sounding proximity effect (think broadcaster's voices) you'll want to put an inexpensive pop filter or windscreen on the mic to eliminate the plosives. Also, this mic has been tuned for spoken word, meaning it's not ideally suited for singing or recording instruments. It gives your speaking voice a really nice 'slightly edited' sound that really compliments the natural tone of your voice. The mic also has an internal shock mount which you can feel if you shake the mic in your hands. It's not perfect but it does well to eliminate a lot of noises related to bumping the desk or boom arm as well as typing and mouse use.

    Would highly recommend!

    Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2025
    Verified Purchase
    This might be a podcast mic but it really kicks azz as a stage vocal mic as well. Bought it a couple months ago as a possible replacement for my SM58 and frankly never used the 58 again. Rugged build, fantastic open nearly-condenser quality sound with dynamic feedback immunity. It's a bit heavy so you might want to get a high quality mic stand for it if, like me, you're using it w/ a boom stand. Gain is a little lower than most dynamics I've worked with but nothing a decent mixer can't handle. Super happy with this purchase

    No puede esperarse menos de Rode. Excelente calidad e increible construcción por el precio. Depende de la distancia a la que lo vayas a usar, puede o no que necesites un cloud lifter o un pre-amp + phantom power.

    Yo lo uso con una Rodecaster Pro y necesito subirle los niveles bastantito para que se escuche bien a una distancia de algunos 40cm de la cara del usuario. Con un pre-amp (fethead) no es necesario subir tanto los niveles. Si lo usarás casi pegado al rostro de la persona, entonces no necesitas nada más.

    Mikrofon çok başarılı, USB destsği de olsa mükemmel olurdu. Pop olayını dert etmeyin, yorumları ve vidwoları izleyip korkmuştum ama pop patlamalarını yeterince engelliyor. Entegre shockmount da başarılı. Herhangi bir Preamp / booster olmadan direkt ucuz bir MAudio ses kartına takıp Phantom Power olmadan kullandım. Tam ses açınca dip ses biraz geliyor. Ama bir gıdım bile kısınca o da kayboluyor. Ses yüksekliği de yeterince iyi geldi bana. Daha da fazla gain gerekir bir gün diye Klark Teknik CT1 Mic Booster sipariş ettim. En uygun fiyatlı ve en başarılı güçlendirici de bu. TR de 300 TL civarı bulunabiliyor. Ben çok beğendim Podmic'i...
