Rode Professional Microphone

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.

The RODE NTG3 Mic Recording Kit is an exceptional investment for any audio professional or enthusiast seeking top-tier sound quality. From the moment I began using this microphone, I was blown away by its performance and versatility. The NTG3 microphone itself is a marvel of engineering. Its broadcast-quality sound is clear, rich, and detailed, capturing audio with remarkable precision. The mic's RF-bias technology ensures superior resistance to moisture, making it a reliable choice for challenging environments, whether you're recording outdoors or in humid conditions. The low self-noise level is impressive, allowing for clean and professional audio recordings every time. The build quality of the NTG3 is equally impressive. It's solid and durable, designed to withstand the rigors of field recording and studio use. The microphone's sleek design and lightweight construction make it easy to handle and position, enhancing its usability across various applications.

This mic is just incredibly awesome!!!! Out of this world! Yes it's huge but so its quality of recording. Looks very professional, because is a professional microphone. Before I bought it I read, and read and watched lots of videos about this microphone; and all reviews said that the quality of recording and versatility of recording modes is superb, but it's too huge and though sturdy, the controls were wobbly. But when I recieved it it was out of my expectations. I expected the size of the mic, but I was overwhelmed by the quality of recording, it's cristal clear. In my mic the controls aren't wobbly, still plastic controls though.The awesome thing of this microphone vs other professional USB mics like the Rode Podcaster is the versatility of recording patterns. Like the Rode it also has a zero-latency headphone jack, with volume control, and with cardoid mode. Unlike the Rode it is not only a cardoid mic, it is also a omnidirectional, bidirectional and STEREO mic. Also unlike the Rode it has something very very important; adjustable gain. Also has an included yoke stand. Best of all is cheaper than the Rode. Conclusion: Buy it.I recommend buying in bundle with SHURE SRH240 headphone, a deal only offered in B&H.

This adapter paired with the Rode Go II Microphone system is a great way to get professional sounding audio on your Insta 360 One RS videos. And it stays invisible. See attached Photo.

This makes the sixth Rode microphone I own. It feels solid and sounds amazing! Easy to use and produces professional audio reproduction.

Amazing headphone in a great price range. I am not as familiar with sound technicalities but this is definitely a big step up from the Rode Videomic Pro in terms of build quality and audio quality. It is not as convenient to setup to the camera that so it's really meant to be used in more professional situations.My run and gun solution is to plug it into an iRig Pre directly into my Panasonic GH3 using a audio splitter. Search up irig pre xlr hack and look at the dslrnood link. It saved me from having to buy a $ juiced link or a recorder.So this microphone is not as easy to use as the DSLR specific microphone like the Rode VMP so I use it for more professional situations.

I am an audiobook narrator and use this for my Rode NT1-A microphone in my personal professional studio. It was easy to assemble and is very sturdy, not flimsy like others out there. I like the height adjustable feature too. I highly recommend!

used on a Rode microphone-very little signal loss.

I bought it to improve my sound in my microphone rode

I like this microphone. I use it with the Rode Wireless system and I'm happy with the result.
