This powerhouse combines the best-selling PodMic’s sound quality with a range of next-generation features, including high-quality analog-to-digital conversion, advanced DSP, and compatibility with smartphones and tablets.
It also has a zero-latency headphone output, onboard volume control, and support for the whole RODE software suite, including RODE Central, RODE Connect, RODE Capture, and UNIFY, making it the most flexible microphone ever.
