I have to mention the workhorse that is the Shure SM58, just in case you’re looking for a high-quality podcast mic that’s more mobile. We’ve organised this Best Podcast Mics roundup by cost to make your choice as easy as possible. Here’s our full guide to Condenser Vs Dynamic Mics in Podcasting for a deeper dive on the subject. ![]() These are broad generalisations though, and there are always exceptions. Condenser mics, on the other hand, are often capable of recording a more crisp and detailed sound. Dynamic mics are often more durable and can handle high volumes without distortion. Both types of mic have their potential pros and cons. The terms “Condenser” and “Dynamic” refer to two different ways microphones are built, and function. Some podcast microphones actually do both, though, so you can have the best of both worlds! Should I Choose a Dynamic or Condenser Mic? If you buy an XLR mic you’ll need some additional kit (like a USB Audio Interface, Mixer, or Podcast Recorder) to run it into, whilst USB mics work right out of the box. XLR mics are considered to be the more professional, but many USB mics are good enough to go toe-to-toe with them these days. ![]() XLR and USB simply refer to the type of cable a mic plugs in with. We update this post periodically to reflect changes in technology, our recommendations, and because we’re always learning new things. ![]() Our ‘Best Podcast Microphones’ guide was originally written in 2013.
