Rode PodMic W

Sounds really good, picks up the voice well, may need some EQ to fine tune but shapes well enough.
Built very well, the form factor including the mount is small which is really good including the the way the XLR cable protrudes.
The white colour is really nice, I was going to but the regular version and paint it in white, but here we see rode done that for us.
It is missing a suitable popfilter designed just for this microphone, the foam windscreen defeats the purpose of this microphone and you have to rely just on your technique when speaking in to prevent plosives.

Røde has released their podmic in this brilliant white and black. Looking at the specs and listening to the mic, they have tweaked the frequency range of this mic, giving it a more "broadcast" sound. As what you would expect from Røde, the podmic white has a solid feel to it, and built to a very high standard. Priced at intro level, its definitely punching well above that price point. Far more than a "beginner" microphone, the podmic is used on some of the most popular podcasts on the planet. Highly recommended.
