External Microphone For Podcasting

If you know, you know. This microphone is the best you can get. I use it for podcasting as well as some video work. Invest in your equipment.

Great microphone for podcasting, enhance the presence for a better deep voice.

this is a must have when connecting your cell phone to a external microphone.

It can be used as an external mic with great preamps, a podcasting mic, an audio interface for making music and live-streaming, a field recorder for ambient noise and foley. It’s so versatile and sounds amazing. The X/Y capsule has great bass and makes my voice sound even better than real life! Turns on quickly to capture sounds fast, and accepts larger memory cards. All around, a great purchase.

I bought this to use for podcasting on my iPhone.  Its a great microphone for someone like me who doesnt want to mess around very much in DAW after recording, since you can change the compression, gain, and 5 channel EQ in the microphone itself However, and this isnt Shures fault (hence no rating deduction), this microphone does not work in VOIP on iOS mobile devices.  Skype, Discord, Anchor, FaceTime, even phone calls, it does not work.  Just a heads up in case you were buying this for that reason.

As a retired author with an interest in podcasting and an earlier career in broadcasting, I am thoroughly impressed with the Rode Podcasters professional sound quality and production ease. A former broadcast professional, like me (1970s network radio) or a retired amateur, like me, will be happy with this microphone. Not really a complaint but this Rode microphone is heavy. Sturdy, but heavy.

My wife needed an upgrade for her online coaching/podcasting. This microphone ticked off all the boxes. It sounds great. a headset attached to it sounds great. No back lash or ghost sounds. Looks good, Nice and heavy. Great value for the money!

Off and on for a decade, I thought about making a Podcast. So when I saw this microphone at a good price, I decided to give it a shot. I record of an iPhone 6s Plus in GarageBand, then use iCloud to move the files to the Mac, where I use GarageBand to do final production. The Polsen microphone gets the job done. If I really do get into Podcasting, I will get a second microphone that is USB. For just playing around to learn about Podcasting, this is perfect. Would also be great for any audio voice recording - say interviews for print journalism or to record living history type memories.

That is exactly what I was looking for - a simple, easy-to-setup and use, high-quality microphone for podcasting, video recording, and meetings.

I'm very pleased with the performance and quality of this microphone. I need a good quality microphone to record voice overs for videos and some podcasting. The AT2020 provides top quality audio. Installation and set up on my Mac was simple and fast. The unit feels very well made, solidly built.
