I haven't tried the PD200X but it looks suspiciously similar to this mic from FiFine--th-cam.com/video/NM6gru-pbyo/w-d-xo.html If it is the same, it's OK, but I'd take the PD400x over it but not the PD100U
Does the dual output (USB & XLR) of PD400X operate alternately or can they be used simultaneously? If they can be used simultaneously, is it possible as a backup in case one of them encounters an issue? How about PD200X? Can the USB & XLR be used simultaneously? I appreciate your help.
You mentioned pd400 you can't tight the screw on the mount and 🎤 moves up and down. Is this that same case with the other 🎤 pd100u? That is a deal breaker for me.
Is the pd100 good for streaming, content creating and singing or should I spend more on another mic? If so, what mics do you recommend? Pd400x included.
I personally wouldn't go for the PD100U. You'd at least want a mic with a headphone input to monitor your audio. Samson Q2U, Q9U. Sennheiser Profile. Rode Podmic USB. Rode NT1-USB. Those are some alternatives I'd look at before the Maono
@@PhillipRPeck but personally you'd look into those mics before the maono ? mount aside. I'm more focused on the sound quality, build, functionality first and the other stuff next
@@F01L I like the Samson Q2U because it's been out for a long time. It's a known quantity in terms of quality and longevity. Rode has really good warranties so they stand behind their products so the Podmic USB gets a vote. Sennheiser is Sennheiser. That's why I put those on the list above the Maono. I don't know about the long term quality and durability of the Maono. I like the way it sounds, though.
I prefer the sound of the PD400X but it doesn't do well with handling noise or plosives. The Podmic isn't great in those departments, either, but it is a bit better and it's a bit less expensive (XLR-only of course).
Bro Im looking for a great (best) XLR mic at about 150-250$ I like the sound of the Shure MV7x but the plosives are just killing me I also like the sound of the Neat King Bee 2 but I feel like it's too heavy in weight what would you recommend me in that price range? I will be doing gaming commentary, no singing or musical instruments, TY!
There are so many great options and many that I haven't tried. If you like the King Bee, maybe take a look at the Lewitt microphones in that price range. They're a lot smaller but should have a similar, clean and crisp sound. Also the Rode NT1 is a great-sounding microphone at $250. The MV7X plosives are an easy fix if you pick up a SM7B windscreen (RK345). My pick would probably be the Rode
@@PhillipRPeck Thanks alot for the information and ur reply! I'll be looking into them, also 1 last question: Ur videos and mostly audio is of incredible quality, what software do you use for post processing, I assume u do that to make it sound even better right love ur channel!
What a quality of video and recording a hug from Brazil friend
i feel like the pd400x usb mode sounds very similar to pd100u
The xlr model sounds great, bar the plosives.
Yeah, it does sound pretty good
Nice video with nice microphone!! Thank you for your great review!
Actually thought the PD400X sounded better than the MV7 🤔Great review
I might be inclined to agree
Nice breakdown, Phillip!
Помогите выбрать что лучше, pd100 или xm8500?
hey guys somebody knows the size of the foam windscreen? I need to buy one that fits the pd100.
what's your take on the the maono Pd200x in comparison to these mics?

You can record simultaneously on the 400X, but I don’t know about the 200X as I don’t have that microphone
You mentioned pd400 you can't tight the screw on the mount and 🎤 moves up and down. Is this that same case with the other 🎤 pd100u? That is a deal breaker for me.
The PD100-U was more solid. It stayed in place better, shouldn't be a problem
What do you prefer pd400x? Or pd100u? Imagine its a gift
The PD400X is objectively better in every way, so if the price isn't a concern, that would be my choice
@@PhillipRPeck thanks a lot!!
Who is better
Pd100 or pd200

@@PhillipRPeck by "before the maono" does that include the pd400x ?
@@F01L Eh, it's fine. I don't like the yoke mount. It doesn't tighten enough to keep the mic secure

PD100U is ok for TH-cam videos and online meetings ?
Yeah, it'll get the job done. It's a lot better than a webcam microphone
PD400X vs Podmic ? Which one is better in your opinion?
I prefer the sound of the PD400X but it doesn't do well with handling noise or plosives. The Podmic isn't great in those departments, either, but it is a bit better and it's a bit less expensive (XLR-only of course).
I agree. All the reviews I have heard of the Podmic it sounds very bright & tinny. 400x for the win.
Thanks
PD100U is it good for recording vocals?
No it's a Podcast mic
@@therealyoungbafia Thank you brother.

@@DossaEZ Thank you. I do everything in DaVinci Resolve.
@@PhillipRPeck Gotcha, I personally edit in Sony Vegas but I don't think that's the way to go for audio post processing right?
I don't know anything about Vegas unfortunately. I'm sure it has decent plugins for audio. I don't do anything particularly fancy
RODE PODMİC USB PD400X ?
Hi! PD100U ok for discord ?
Thx for video !
Yeah, I think it would be perfectly fine. Thanks!
