Rode PodMic PODMICUSBW

I used this mic for a couple of months and it worked well at the start, but recently the volume has become very low. I tried adjusting settings and troubleshooting but nothing helped. It’s disappointing because the quality was good in the beginning, but the performance dropped over time.

Good Mic. Leaving this review as none of the picture reviews had the white version. I’m using the PSA1+ mic arm with it.

Wanted to love this as it is a good pricepoint and it is very compact. It worked for a day then I noticed it wont wake up after my computer sleeps. It will not pickup any sound. I had to restart the rode connect app for it to start picking up audio again. I tried to completely reset the device, reupdate firmware and reinstall all the rode apps. It will show the device but now it wont even show it is connected in any of the apps. Tried different PC ports as well. I will be returning as I shouldn't be having this much troubleshooting for a new device. I was going to replace a Blue Yeti X and it never had these issues before. Will be going for a different brand. This seems like an app/driver issue.

Received it with a little scratch marks, which means it had been opened before. Easily noticeable as it’s white. Bought it at INR 23699.

OKAY. If I were reviewing just this microphone, I would have 0 complaints. It's perfect from top to bottom. However, I do have 2 complaints that have knocked this down a star. 1) The microphone came with very minor marks which makes me wonder if this was opened or if it missed inspection somehow, or was used. It is white which does make it a little obvious. 2) This is an expensive microphone. I do not intend to buy another one and certainly will not get just to have it in another color. Why did I order a white microphone and it comes packed with a black pop filter? Do I need to buy the matching color separately if I want it to match? Was this a mistake? If it isn't, this is ridiculous to me. If I ordered a white-bodied microphone it should be standard issue to come with a matching pop filter. If this is a money grab, it right pisses me off for such an expensive product. Even 30-dollar shoes come with properly matched shoe laces.

Bu 2. Rode mikrofonum usb c li olmasına kesinlikle güvenmeyin ses seviyesi aşırı düşük kalıyor ilkini bunun için iade etmiştim bozuk olabilir mi diye 2.de de aynı sorun devam ediyor ses kalitesi güzel olsa bile uygulama üzerinde ses ayarını fullememe rağmen ve mikrofona 2 parmak mesafeden kayıt almama rağmen ses 3 metre öteden geliyor gibi bu kadar para verip 3. Parti yazılımlarına muhtaç ediyor sizi hal böyle olunca kalite diye birşey kalmıyor ortada... ham ses almaya çalışacaksanız kesinlikle başka mikrofonlara yönelin rode markası hayal kırıklığından başka birşey değil (teknik destekle 2 saat bu sorun hakkında konuştuk çözümsüz kaldılar) asla tavsiye etmiyorum birdahada rode markasına bulaşmam...
