Podcast Microphone Battle: Shure MV7 vs Rode PodMic

I've got two fantastic microphones to pin against each other today. The Shure MV7 and the Rode PodMic. Why the battle, you ask? Well, these babies are essentially cut from the same cloth. They both offer the versatility of XLR and USB connections, and the price point is basically the same. Shure and Rode are both very well known in the microphone industry, and I felt like it was worthy of a good ol’ fashioned rumble!Before I declare any favourites, I want to make it clear that what you're about to hear is my personal opinion and specific to my voice. Your voice will have different tonality, different inflection and different frequency “hot spots”, so use this as a guide.We start with some tricky sounds like those with heavy P's and B's to see how they handle plosives. I even treat you to a bit of singing because, hey, microphones are often used for that purpose, and I'm a singer myself.I read a passage from Gillian Flynn's "Gone Girl" to see how well these microphones fare for voiceovers and audiobook narration. These are crucial considerations, especially if you're a content creator.LinksRode PodmicShure MV7-----Bamby Media GearBamby Media ServicesYouTube ChannelEQUIPMENT WE USE TO PRODUCE THIS PODCAST (PODCAST PLATFORM VERSION)Rode Boom ArmXLR CablesRode PodMic USB XLR editionRØDE SC19 cableRode NT-USB MiniSatechi USB HubFocusrite Clarett+Sony ZV E10Elgato CamlinkAputure Amaran 200d LED Video LightAputure Light Box Min
