Thanks for all you do Tammy (even the scary voice at the end!) :) I think the Rode Podmic is dynamic, so wouldn't need +48v phantom... no?

[@thejhreview]

Actually I do run my Podmic thru the maonocaster lite.I run an xlr cable from the Podmic to the mic input of my Presonus pre amp and then run the supplied xlr to line cable from the output of the preamp to the maonocaster.Troublesome set up but it works

[@guberization]

I think I love you and your sense of humor! 😍😍😍😍

[@jorgeestrada4112]

I love the review! Makes me want to get one😮‍💨🤙

[@TexasJackdaw]

Always entertaining and informative, Tammy. It looks like a great little unit. I hope the bad text wasn’t too bad. 🙏

[@kenbest7660]

Good review as always.

[@onlymyopiniontech]

It looks like a good option. I have the Maonocaster lite but I haven’t had time to tinker with it much. Thanks for the review and I hope the bad phone call wasn’t too bad. Have a great day and be safe out there!

[@TexasJackdaw]

Hey Tammy, my friend. I hope you’re doing well. Looking forward to new content from you. 🤟

[@kikercreative]

That is pretty cool. My friends and I do a little podcast now and then using the Podtrak 4. This looks like a good alternative. Thanks for the in-depth review!

[@Spamps]

Wow what a great piece of equipment especially if you are on a budget. Awesome video Tammy!

[@MichaelNoland-TheBottomLine]

I’ve been using the Scarlett 2i2, and it’s worked out so far for me. Nice sound effects, though! Nice scary voice! Use it in your next Halloween video! ;-D

[@timwindsor03]

Incredible video TAMMY. Thanks for sharing. Hope it wasn't too bad of news. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an awesome day. Much love. Huge hugs

[@musasoyyo]

Thank you for the video and the review, great option. Just wanted to be clear in one thing the Podmic does not need phantom (48v) power since its a dynamic microphone, the phantom power should only be used for condenser microphones (such as the audiotechnica AT-2020). Dynamic microphones such as the Rode Podmic, Audiotechnica AT-2040 and Shure SM7B don't need phantom power, some of them (the SM7B) may need a "soundbooster" (it's not the same as phantom power) such as the Cloudlifter but that's it, they don't actually need phantom power.

[@njet212]

From the B-Roll she use somekind of attenuator ( cloudlifter / fethead sort of ) thats why she said use phantom power. And yes, Rode Podmic is dynamic and it does not need phantom. Make me wondering, is it because she use attenuator on Podmic so she could achived low noise floor? so she should not need to crank the gain way too high compared without using attenuator

[@aeSUAmiuzik]

G'day Tammy! Thnx for informative displays that was awesome. Only trouble, imma beginner singer kareoke LIVE and I was told by a famous KZbin to use the v8 sound card 'coz I'm new plus it suits my Kaeoke LIVES. After watching u, imma a lot confused which way imm do🙆‍♂️. What do u think i should do coz i have no idea now please? TIA🤷‍♂️

[@takstarofficial6448]

Nice video!

[@DavidSmith0712]

Hi Tammy awesome review the voice sound at the end pretty cool

[@TransplantHelper]

What app are you recording to with you iPad. I’m still watching so you may mention it. Great video

[@lavrodem]

garageband :)

[@FlyZoneFpv]

Great review Tammy . I definitely need to get one thanks.👍🏼

[@musacman57]

Great little unit

[@tammysypniewski1891]

😉Thanks for watching!

[@lavrodem]

I recommend TAKSTAR MX1 PRO Professional ....

[@jeezaderon]

Nice. Looks awesome however I already have the Maono caster AU-AM200

[@MotherAlsaud]

I love your channel and I’m new to this tech stuff but I wanted to know if you had a shure mic smb7 would that type of microphone be able to connect to this device that you’re reviewing🥰🥰

[@BadKarma714]

How many audio interfaces do you have lol 😂 good video

[@tammysypniewski1891]

2. Sold the Behringer.

[@tanham007]

OMGGGGG I LOVE THIS!!!!!!

[@b4ugo]

Quick question before I order it (and the mic, both through your link) do I need to order anything else to get both working? Going to plug it straight into my Sony ZVE10, also I live the Godox ML60 you suggested

[@viplivesmatter]

Dear Sweet Tammy, I was ready to buy Maonocaster Lite after watching your video and now I dont know😂 This one seems great! Anyway, a youtuber told me “the radio mic sound comes really in the compression”: this means that I have to set up the right compression to sounds like a radio when I go live? How can I do that with this device? Thanks 🙏❤️

[@Dmogul]

Omg this video lol great one ☝️, and great product

[@pediapulmo]

how is this different from the takstar mx1 plus? aside from the usb a to usb c instead of the usb a to a micro usb, which one would you prefer over the two? thanks!

[@CreativeRome]

That's cool 😎

[@AmyiReport]

Hi Tammy, I bought this sound card after I watched your video. I absolutely love it. However when I connect this sound card to my camera, it produced a humming / hiss sound. But if I connect this sound card to an iOS devices like iPhone or iPad, I don’t have this issue. Please advice. I can’t get any support from the Takstar company since they are located in Asia. Greatly appreciate your help..

[@MyMuse1111]

Streamcaster? Ehat to use thru my phone?

[@sebaszwarc6028]

That last sound was like Tammy being seducing demon :D

[@Peter_Carroll]

If you are using 48 volts phantom power on the Podmic I assume you are using a Cloudlifter or similar. Does this device have enough power to drive a Podmic or similar without a cloudlifter? Thanks for the review.

[@tammysypniewski1891]

Yes I’m using a FetHead. Yes you can run it without one but it’s very quiet

[@tanham007]

Hahahahahaahaha! Laughing so hard at the end!!!!!

[@pavelavietor1]

hello cool . saludos

[@maxnezok]

I CAN HEAR THE WIND OF YOUR MOUTH !!! PLEASE PUT DE NYLON POP FILTER TAMMY !!!

[@tammysypniewski1891]

Not in the off axis position. I didn’t hear any plosives. But thanks

[@IbraheemALBalushi]

The device does not support a USB mic, having a dongle does not give a good quality some times "Blue Yeti"

[@tammysypniewski1891]

No usb mics. Though you would plug those right onto the computer. This is for more pro mics with xlr connections

[@IbraheemALBalushi]

@@tammysypniewski1891 I have found a USB to XLR cable, that would help, I think I will go for this device, thanks.

[@mareklaszczych6752]

U r crazzy woman!:) How are you Love?:)

[@Herfinnur]

It’s funny that men just sound bad when you pitch up our voices while women sound smoother and fuller than almost any man

[@BadKarma714]

[@challengedornot1324]
