Hey y’all, I had a few people comment on the microphone being in the incorrect position, this is true but I purposely did this to show the name of the new “Podmic USB” over the older “Podmic”. Although they come in different colors, as a precaution I wanted the microphone name to be shown. Point that bad boy towards you in real uses case scenario🤣. I love the accountability 🫶🏾
Thank you so much for making this comparison video. It’s the only one I could find. I have been using the blue yeti nano on my channel’s voiceover and can’t get it to work for me to save my life so have been holding off on a purchase and saw the pod mic vs mv7 on my feed. It was perfectly shot and edited! Thank you.
Awesome! I too was looking for a head to head comparison and couldn’t find one, so I decided to make one myself . Glad to hear the video is helping folks see the difference b/w the two . Spend the $200.00, download the RØDE Connect software and I promise you won’t regret it . Good luck with the channel 👍🏾
I’m not sure. Not sure why you would considering that these are broadcast microphones. They’re meant to be seen in the shot along with the person speaking unless you have a producer or co-host who you cut to from time to time.
They both sound about the same. As I mentioned in the video, what made me go with the PodmicUSB was of the USB-C cables and the RØDE software for sound mixing and recording on a laptop. Shure’s MV7 sounds great but it’s going to need an update soon b/c of the outdated micro USB cable and limited software.
Cool. top quality video here!. I need a Mic to record better quality pitch videos for my biz. Wanted to go with the MV7 but it looks like the Rode has the better features for my needs! Thanks for the video that helped me with that decision!
Wish there was sound bite differences between the 2. Also using the app to change how you want your voice to sound would have been cool. Nice video though. Thanks
@@swnup I wasn’t complimentary enough so let me say the reason I say I wanted more is because your video did it’s job which was to make me consider this mic and it made me want more lol
Ah, got it 😂. Honestly, I tested both of them and I promise you won’t be disappointed with the RØDE mic. It’s future proof with the USB-C and it’s cheaper. 🤝🏾
Thank you for this review! I've been holding off on purchasing the MV7 (because of the Micro USB connection) in the hopes that a comparable product with USB C would come out. The Rode Podmic USB as far as I know is the only mic that directly competes with the MV7 and your video is the first that I've found that compares them.
Same! Anything with a micro HDMI or micro USB I’m like, why 🤦🏾♂️? When this mic was announced and I saw that it had a USB-C connection I immediately said take my money. This mic sounds great in both XLR and USB and for voice over for content creation or Zoom calls this works great . Thanks for watching 👍🏾
Good vid, just one thing though, rhe podmic usb isnt side address, it's front address. Saw clips of you talking into it from the side with the front end of it pointed to the ceiling. Hope this helps. Great editing btw, very slick. Good vibes all around.
Good catch and thanks for keeping it positive. I talked into the mic frontward facing in a practical use, I did it that was to show off the branding for the video . I wanted the Podmic “USB” showing b/c I didn’t want people to get this one mixed up with the regular Podmic if they decided to purchase . My love bro 🤝
@@Daxverse I think either is fine now that Shure introduced the Shure MV7 Plus with USB-C, but RØDE’s software and ecosystem is still far superior for people looking for pro and beginner level audio interface management for podcast, live event & beyond. I’m going with RØDE just b/c of that.
@@swnup any thoughts on rode xdm 100, Im gonna record for my games comments style videos in an untreated room and I have a deep voice , hoping to get the help from you, cuz I'm super confused on which one to choose
@@Daxverse Never used it but I see it’s in the same price point. Honestly I think the RØDE mics is still the best option b/c it’s robust software. It’s more bang for your buck.
Good questions. I guess it depends on what you’re trying to achieve. When you say “music sounds” are you planning on playing music through speakers in a room in which the microphone would be catching and recording that sound? If so, it’s good enough to start but there are microphone that do that better. A condenser microphone may work better for the situation I described, but again I’m not sure of what you’re trying to achieve . Condenser microphones isolate the sounds in front of it and cancel out the sounds around it. Hope this helped
I have issues with this mic USB on with Mac Studio on Ventura. Mic goes in and out and when using effects in the connect app the mic completely goes out for at least 10-15 mins
I just got a new M1 Max MacBook Pro this week and too had issues, but it seemed to be with the Røde Connect software and not the mic for me. After a quick uninstall, restart and install it seems to be working now . Maybe uninstall & and install and restart might help .
@@swnup that’s was the issue with me. I did the uninstall and reinstall with several restarts. Now the mic cuts in and out with the software on or not🤦🏽♂️
@@rashedmango9753 Got it. The “advance setting” just allow you to fine tune your voice setting more than the basic settings. If you’d like, RØDE’s software is free to download on Win. & MAC. Give it a look. 👍🏾
Correct . I show this angle to show off the branding and “Podmic USB” distinction being that the regular Podmic is almost identical . Appreciate you watch 👍🏾.

Really cool video. Such a unique way of making reviews, and I love the color grading on this!
Thank you! Had fun making it. Maybe a color grading tutorial 🤔

@@swnup Thank you so much I will order it today and pray for the best until I learn how to use it. Thanks again.
Does the Podmic USB offer a “far” setting like the MV7, so you can film a talking head video with the mic out of frame?
I’m not sure. Not sure why you would considering that these are broadcast microphones. They’re meant to be seen in the shot along with the person speaking unless you have a producer or co-host who you cut to from time to time.
Both are great, RØDE just won me over with the USB-C & RODE software.
I absolutely love you video, it's just so visually pleasing, the best way to watch a review - thank you - this made my decision clear :)
I had the same questions you probably had before making this video . Happy it helped! Thanks for watching 👍🏾
Please, please, please don't use background music when you're reviewing microphones.
Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.
Underrated channel ❤ the Cinematics and video quality top notch!!!!!
This comment came right on time. Much appreciated. Thanks for watching 👍🏾
Underrated, beautiful video and comparisons, new subscriber.
Wow, thank you. Welcome to the team!
Awesome video. I'm picking one of these up. Great work!
Thanks . I use this mic for almost every video now .
In your honest opiniom which sounded the most natural and you liked the most?
I gave my honest opinion in the video 😂.

Yeah I agree. I provided the XLR sound bite, but definitely could’ve provided more examples. Thanks for watching 👍🏾

@@swnup def sounds like it’s a legit option. I have a yeti that I bought years ago. I don’t use it much so it’s time to buy something new

May I ask you to make a tutorial how you mix the background music?
Thanks man
Thanks for watching.
Great videoss ! But may i ask if the rode podmic usb has mute button on the mic like shure does?
Yup it does. By pressing the volume button it mutes the microphone.

If I use Podmic usb to record the music sound from the speaker, do you think it is suitable, or do you have other recommendations

@@swnup the mix started working again today after the e new connect update but I still can’t use the effects in connect the cuts out 😮💨
Yes sir 🔥🔥🔥
Can you do an advanced sitting video
Advanced sitting? Explain 🤔
@swnup you said you won't go through advanced sittings in this video for the connect app
@@rashedmango9753 Got it. The “advance setting” just allow you to fine tune your voice setting more than the basic settings. If you’d like, RØDE’s software is free to download on Win. & MAC. Give it a look. 👍🏾
Might have to cop me a rode mic boy 🎤
The podcast boy .
The rode usb podmic is not in correct angle.
Correct . I show this angle to show off the branding and “Podmic USB” distinction being that the regular Podmic is almost identical . Appreciate you watch 👍🏾.
This video served no purpose.
Make a better one 😉.
How’s that video coming along?🤔 you’ve had 30days @hellolau
