I Podcast as my job and bought this as an occasional mic if I have guests and as a backup to my main mic, a Shure SM7b, in case of breakages or emergencies where I couldn't use that. Side by side, this mic is just about 99% everything I get from my Shure, it's got all the clarity and warmth and just sounds great and for the price, phenomenal. I use this plugged into a Focusrite 18i20 and have the gain up to about 75% which is a fair amount, but puts it easily in reach of just about any interface without the need for any extra gain from things like cloudlifters etc. and even at that high gain, the mic remains completely silent and noise free. It's a nicely made, all metal construction, though it is actually quite light weight. That's a little disconcerting, but handy given the fact it will be held on any cheap boom arm or mic stand you might want to pick up for it.Honestly, for the price, I think this mic is unbelievably good. If my Shure ever does break, I'll replace it with one of these, hands down, no problem. Since starting my podcast, I've used a variety of mics in all different price ranges, including a Rode NT-1, Rode Procaster, Shure sm-58, Shure SM7b and now this. The SM7b is obviously the pride in my vocal mic box, but this comes a very, very close second. Considering the price difference, it's just not worth it, buy this and be happy saving a ton of money, it's a cracking little mic.

Got to say I was surprised at how light this mic is but the sound is excellent. I got the red version (great that they do so many colours) which looks really nice, as I say a bit lighter than I was expecting but a good performer, nice tone (favours the low ends) and handles plosives pretty well (depending on your mic technique), like all dynamics, requires a bit of gain but boosting in your DAW produces excellent results with no audible hiss. Will probably use a Fethead (or budget version of Fethead that I have) just to boost it a little. All in all a very good mic at an excellent price, by the way the mic is a 'end address' mic (if that matters to you). great value and a very good sound to it. Recommended.

Ita a good bang for the buck, a little too much low end, and also keep in mind that there is no shock mount, so any slight taps or touches on it or the table is very noticeable and loud through the mic.The internal pop insulation is fair, but not gppd enough to stop pops from about 3 inches from the mic. BUY A SEPARATE POP FILTER. I recommend 100%.Overall its a nice build.

I really like this microphone. It's clear and is good at picking on your voice and not picking up background noise (I have mostly condenser mics so wanted something like this). It sounds good and clear for speaking and singing (I would recomend this for singers, I know it's aimed at podcasting but perfectly capable of getting very good professional sounding singing results). I would say it's great if you have an untreated room. It's crazy you can get a mic this good for this price.The only negatives I have is that it is advertised as having an internal popshield and it isn't great, If this wasn't advertised as a feature I would have given this a five star review (most mics need a pop filter). It really isn't good at stopping plosives on it's own, epecially not for its intended audience. A foam windscreen for this would be a great accessory for Sontronics to make. I do recommend using a pop filter with this mic. It also really picks up bumps to your mic stand so be careful! Having said the negatives these are only very small points and I think it's excellent microphone overall.After using it more I have given it an extra star because it really is great.BARGAIN!

Package seems to be opened and cable not included

Super micro, avec un vrai rendu radio

I use this mic to record tutorials and host classes. It is nicely soft with a very good noise profile.The mic needs a shock mount because it is not internally well insulated.Love this mic - also it is very light kinda feel cheap but that is rather nice to the mic arms !

und Home-Broadcaster entwickelt wurde, und es hat definitiv seinen Platz in der obersten Liga verdient - 5 Sterne all the way!Erstens ist das Design des PODCAST PRO einfach atemberaubend. Mit seinem leicht vintage-inspirierten Look ist es zweifellos eines der am besten aussehenden Mikrofone auf dem Markt. Es ist sowohl in schwarz als auch in einem auffälligen metallischen Rot erhältlich, und seine visuelle Ästhetik ist definitiv Teil seiner Attraktivität, insbesondere für diejenigen, die sich beim Podcasten filmen. Aber keine Sorge, dieses Mikrofon ist nicht nur ein hübsches Gesicht - es ist auch ein leistungsstarkes Arbeitspferd, das seinem "Pro" -Namen gerecht wird.Die Klangqualität des PODCAST PRO ist hervorragend. Es eignet sich hervorragend für gesprochenes Wort und ist auch anständig für Sampling und grundlegende Aufnahmen. Die superkardioiden Muster sind ideal für die Aufnahme einer einzelnen Stimme, sie reduzieren unerwünschte Geräusche, die von den Seiten oder dem hinteren Teil des Aufnahmeraums aufgenommen werden, und betonen angenehm die mittleren Frequenzen, die am besten für die gesprochene Stimme geeignet sind.Ein weiterer großer Pluspunkt ist die Lebenslange Garantie, die Sontronics für das PODCAST PRO bietet. Dies zeigt das Engagement und das Vertrauen des Unternehmens in sein Produkt und bietet den Nutzern zusätzliche Sicherheit.Natürlich ist kein Produkt perfekt und das PODCAST PRO ist da keine Ausnahme. Die superkardioiden Muster könnten für unruhige Podcaster oder Streamer, die dazu neigen, sich während der Aufnahme zu bewegen, ein Problem darstellen. Zudem ist es wichtig zu beachten, dass kein Desktop-Ständer im Lieferumfang enthalten ist.Trotz dieser kleinen Nachteile, ist das Sontronics PODCAST PRO ein hervorragendes Mikrofon. Es bietet ein großartiges Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und ist definitiv eine lohnende Investition für alle, die sich ernsthaft mit Podcasting oder Home-Broadcasting beschäftigen. Sein stilvolles Design, seine Vielseitigkeit und seine herausragende Klangqualität machen es zu einer Top-Wahl in seinem Bereich.

Hatte vorher diverse andere Mikrofone getestet und dieses hier hat mich letztendlich überzeugt. Es ist ein dynamisches Mikrofon, die Stimme war klar aufgenommen ohne Rauschen. Die Stimme klingt recht warm und eher Basslastig. Auf keinen Fall blechern. Man kann es mit dem Shure sm7b vergleichen von der Aufnahmequalität. Geräusche aus der Entfernung werden nur sehr leise aufgenommen, hat den Vorteil dass man nicht gleich hört wenn die Frau ins Zimmer kommt. Ich kann sogar ohne Headset also mit Boxen(stehen am Monitor) spielen wenn ich reagate nutze. Müsste auch mit voicemeter gehen aber ich nutze noch pedalboard2. Es hat ein XLR Anschluss also benötigt man ein XLR Interface. Ich nutze das Behringer UMC202 HD und zusätzlich ein Triton Fathead da die Verstärkerleistung des Behringers nicht ausreicht. Mittlerweile würde ich eher ein besseres Interface kaufen und so den Fathead einsparen.
