RODE PodMic USB and XLR Dynamic Broadcast Microphone is a cardioid dynamic broadcast microphone with XLR and USB-C outputs for podcasting, streaming, interviews, mobile video, and creator production. It offers XLR, 24-bit / 48kHz USB-C, a headphone output, internal pop filtering, internal shock support, and onboard APHEX processing in USB mode. Available in Canada from Filmgear Canada, Vancouver's podcast, creator-audio, and cinema-sound equipment specialist.

Product Overview

This broadcast audio tool is selected for the exact model and production role named in the listing. The PodMic USB combines a dynamic cardioid capsule with traditional 3-pin XLR and a digital USB-C interface. RODE lists a 20Hz to 20kHz response, 24-bit / 48kHz conversion, 148dB maximum SPL, an integrated swing mount, a 3.5mm monitoring output, internal pop filter, internal shock mount, and software access to compressor, noise gate, high-pass filter, Aural Exciter, and Big Bottom processing. Choose the connection path before purchase because XLR uses an external interface or mixer, while USB handles conversion, monitoring, and software processing inside the microphone.

Key Features

XLR and USB-C Recording

Connect to a professional interface or mixer through XLR, or record directly to a supported computer or mobile device through USB-C.

Integrated Voice Control

Internal pop filtering, shock isolation, close-address cardioid pickup, zero-latency monitoring, and a swing mount support spoken-word recording.

APHEX Processing in USB Mode

RODE software can control high-pass filtering, compression, gating, Aural Exciter, Big Bottom, gain, and monitoring for digital sessions.

How It Compares

Choose PodMic USB when one microphone must support both an XLR studio path and a direct USB creator setup. Choose a condenser microphone for more room detail, a lightweight USB desktop mic for travel, or a shotgun / lavalier system when the voice is recorded away from a desk.

Compatible Accessories and Related Gear

Audio interfaces, mixers, recorders, computers, USB-C mobile devices, headphones, boom arms, and RODE recording software matched to XLR or USB operation

Who Is This For?

For podcasters, streamers, voice-over artists, educators, gamers, interviewers, and creators who want one robust spoken-word microphone for USB and XLR systems.

Who Should Choose Something Else?

Choose a boom or lavalier microphone for subjects away from the desk, a condenser for more room and vocal detail, or an analogue-only microphone when USB monitoring and processing are unnecessary.
