[@SeoulForeigner]

You can't go wrong with a Røde microphone. I have bought two and they are absolutely wonderful.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

We agree!

[@SteveEast]

I use an SE electronics V7. Dynamic mic, xlr to audio interface. It was around $100. It’s often really noisy outside my house, with dogs barking, traffic and music (I live in Mexico)… and it is really good at only picking up my voice and not too much background noise.

[@valdar27]

I was a bit anxious to see this come out just now, as I bought my new mic yesterday - but luckily I haven't missed the mark with it

[@numberoneappgames]

awesome mic review. Love how ya'll have all mics and know how each one works!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Thanks so much!

[@FrankieOver50]

I have five of these mics (although I have the original version of the Rode Micro not the II). I still haven't used my Samson. AT2020+ USB is the one I use the most. I've had it for 8 years and I still reach for it all the time. I love it so much I bought the XLR version to go with my Rodecaster. The others I have are the PodMic and the VideoMic GO

[@DempsDesigns]

Very helpful video! Thank you

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Happy to help!

[@mikezupancic2182]

I bought the DJI kit and its anazing. The single Tx is great and connects via bluetooth to things like the DJI Osmo Action 4, but with the other stuff you can connect to your phone or any other camera.

[@DaltonMyWorld]

Thanks for the help

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Thanks for watching!

[@cybergigafactory]

Are these USB mics also usable on an iPad Pro? I have a razor seiren mini and it records at very low volume. I search for a USB mic that can record with more volume or has a dial for that.

[@DebyColes]

Do you have any recommendations for a set of wireless microphones that have a USB-c output? My phone doesn't have an audio socket. Thanks

[@GodfactsPodcast]

Q2U is still the budget king. 2 for $140 is crazy cheap. Sounds great

[@TheMagicMinute]

I use a Samson Q9U with XLR into a Wavelink. The mic was on sale at 99 and can be used with usb. It’s a gorgeous sounding mic

[@slightlyopinionated8107]

Samson*

[@TheMagicMinute]

Yes. Typo. Thank you

[@ItsRyukin]

Well, I didn't expect a Comica Boom X-D2 to be mentioned in this vid at 14:24. It's quite a budget friendly "broadcast" quality wireless mic, I'd use it with my Sony camcorder. It sounds great and like with other wireless mics "on set" this can be clipped and on a go anywhere. It comes with supplied accessories in the box, Which is a good thing. I don't have to buy a separate lav mics or units, They are all just give in the box. And I'd also use it to scream at the "built-in mics" for no reason. xD And I don't know why but that was when I wasn't recording a KZbin video.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

We like the Comica system for the price point, especially on sale. If it gets up to the $200 price range, there are some better options.

[@Sterling-Beck]

Hey! Love the video!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Thanks for watching!

[@Pickle_Gamer_real]

What boom stick do you use

[@sdtimeless]

The Sennheiser Mke 200 looks great but the low end is not present and the mic sounds ‘tinny’. You can correct that with a low end eq bump but it adds extra work.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Great insight. We feel like it lacks the low end as well, but still sounds solid for the price!

[@KC-RallyPlanes]

Is there a good waterproof microphone out there. I’m starting to livestream from airports and would love something that I could leave exposed, no matter what the weather

[@TheMichaelTech]

Kraid, can we get a preview of your setup for these videos?

[@CityWalks3216]

Great idea I need that 😊

[@ThinkMediaTV]

That would be a great video! We will work on it!

[@ShipToShoreCruiseNews]

How about wireless lapell mics?

[@carlosIC]

Was hoping to se something from Ulanzi

[@brotherfredrickbeats]

I use Samson Q9U but i experience some clicks in my audio what could be the problem?

[@S.Swaray]

Greetings to all members of Think Media! I want to express my gratitude to Mr. Omir for helping me acquire the excellent Deity V lav microphone. It's great to see that you've updated your list for 2024, showcasing the latest and best microphone options available.🎉

[@itspaulinesplace]

Welcome to KZbin I subscribe

[@JeromeChong97]

I use the AT2020USB +

[@ThinkMediaTV]

One of our favorites!

[@inlinesix6694]

sooo i just need a mic to do commentary either over pre-prerecorded stuff or in a live recording while sitting at the desk. i dont have any audio equipment or cameras, just a macbook pro and pc. which one would be best for that?

[@ThinkMediaTV]

We would recommend the AT2020 USB+ or the Samson Q2U!

[@edwardvega2749]

I just got a DJI pocket 3 for concerts and I think the DJI mic 2 can’t handle the bass of the speakers any suggestions to fix this or which microphone I should use ? Thank you

[@edwardvega2749]

I did use the DJI mic 2 and it was bad

[@kyle_munoz]

You CANNOT enable 32-bit float on DJI Mic 2 without the receiver or a compatible action camera. Just a heads up before anyone buys it with the expectation of that ability.

[@johnclay7644]

informative audio related content

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Thanks for watching!

[@jaysondronaarts]

What Mic Can you suggest that can be used in online podcast as well as in vlogging?😅

[@ThinkMediaTV]

The RODE Videomic Go 2 is a great options for this!

[@jaysondronaarts]

@@ThinkMediaTV Thanks a lot

[@Tanner_Teves]

Don’t get the Rode VideoMicro II if you plan on shooting outside. With any wind it does terrible and has a weird popping/clipping issue (even with the dead cat on it)

[@Joyboys_Logbook]

Alternative?

[@Tanner_Teves]

@@Joyboys_Logbook The Sennheiser MKE 200 does much much better in the wind and is the same cost.

[@Joyboys_Logbook]

@@Tanner_Teves thanks!

[@Tnarg-the-clown]

Im not sure but it seems like think media doesn't read the comments, what do you think?

[@ThinkMediaTV]

you're right

[@cruze86]

the problem with xlr mic is that you can't record the audio without audio interface which is much expensive for youtube beginners.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

True, which is why there are a lot of great USB and 3.5mm options on this list as well!

[@jaysondronaarts]

The RodePod mic cannot be connected to computer directly?

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Not with the original PodMic. It only works with an XLR interface. They do have a PodMic USB version, but it is $200, not $100.

[@jaysondronaarts]

@@ThinkMediaTV Thanks a lot

[@Sean2stacks]

Where’s Omar!?

[@ShangHungxxx]

Other people gotta eat too man 😅

[@JadeWells2908]

I miss Nolan

[@ThinkMediaTV]

So do we 😔

[@Fabu_roman]

CORRECTION: PODMIC HAS ITS USB VERSION AS WELL !!!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Right! But not for the same price. The USB version is $199.

[@Fabu_roman]

@@ThinkMediaTV you right! I forgot the title of the video "UNDER 100"

[@Fabu_roman]

@ThinkMediaTV yes, my bad!!! I forgot the main title of the video. 😅

[@Togoinforiche]

😂😂❤

[@CrispySkates]

@Kitinsfoodandtraveltrip thought of you ❤
