Hello, Rode, and thank you for USB Microphone! I've just recorded music (guitar/flute/voice) and was surprised with quality. (Reading forums and understanding that it's a home-demo-setup and not a recording studio, I was ready for much-much-much less quality.) Just wanted to ask - do your microphones work with "USB hubs" where you can plug in OVER 9000 additional USB devices? And if you need some feedback or just an ideas - podcast APP for android would be awesome! Thank you!

[@bluebull852]

He said, that multiple usb microphones directly(probably same with any better quality hub) to the computer, may or may-not work. Which I think is diplomatic for won't?!
Anyway if you have tried I would like to hear the results.

can i use my yeti mic with this

[@espinillasypuntosnegros1715]

Is there an audio quality difference between XLR and USB?

[@toompros]

not much

[@zezesilver]

Instead of releasing another broadcast mic, I woulda liked to see a new USB dynamic mic from Rode

[@shawntaburgess447]

What cord would I use to connect my rode dynamic microphone to my laptop

[@rodemic]

If you're using a Dynamic XLR mic you'll need an XLR cable into an interface (like the AI-1). If you're using a USB Dynamic mic, the included USB cable is all you'll need.

I have a noob question, is it possible to convert a usb microphone to XLR?

[@TheHypeCom]

jeoso borda no, that’s not possible, since the usb microphone gives out a digital audio signal, while xlr connectors only transfer an analog audio signal

At the end of February Rode wrote to me with an Email that in mid of April the mics will be available in Germany / Europe, today at 18 of April they write to me "we are expecting stock to be available in store in the coming weeks.“. O.k. rode since beginning of the year you are not able to send mics to Germany / Europe / USA. And i often asks about the exact date when they will be in Germany. Sorry Rode to make big marketing campaigns you have time and money but to bring the products to the stores you its not possible for you. To wait 6 Month! for a product i ordered in my store in January its very bad. If you are a fan from podmic i give all users the advice don’t order this mic you will not get the next month…. Its better to buy other mics.!!!!!
