| Video Discription | In this video, we'll compare the two best podcasting microphones for beginners - the Samson Q2U and the ATR2100x. Samson Q2U - https://bhpho.to/30r9CYR ATR2100x - https://bhpho.to/37DJZXd 3x Criteria For Narrowing Down Our Choices 1. Dynamic vs Condenser Dynamic microphones with cardioid polar patterns (or pickup patterns) are ideally suited for home recording (which is where most podcasters record their episodes). Condenser microphones are more sensitive, pick up a lot of background noise, and are only useful in professional recording studios. For that reason, we don't recommend the Blue Yeti USB microphone (which is a USB condenser microphone). 2. Under $100 While more expensive podcasting microphones can make your podcast sound amazing, you don't need to break the bank to get high-quality audio recordings. In fact, you don't have to spend more than $100! There are some great, low price options in the beginner podcast price range. That's why microphones like the Rode Procaster, Shure SM7B, and Heil PR40, should be considered investments for later down the road in your podcasting journey. We also can't recommend the Audio-Technica ATR2100 anymore, seeing as it's been discontinued and replaced with the ATR2100x (more on that in a minute). 3. Plug And Play When looking at entry-level podcast microphones, ease of use is critically important. You should be able to plug the microphone directly into your computer without needing a bunch of extra gear. For that reason, Rode Podmic is also out of the running. It's an XLR only microphone, so you'd also need to purchase an XLR cable and audio interface to record with it and that pushes the budget over $100. That leaves us with just two options - the Samson Q2U and the Audio-Technica ATR2100x. ===COMPARISON=== 🎤 Accessories that come in the box for each microphone (03:20) Samson Q2U - Mic Stand - Micro-USB to USB cable - XLR cable - Pop filter/windscreen (helps cut down on plosives) Audio-Technica ATR2100x - Mic Stand - USB-C cable - USB cable - XLR cable (You can pick up a $3 foam cover on Amazon if you end up choosing the ATR2100x - https://amzn.to/2C7DbV1) 🛠 Build Quality (04:37) Both microphones have a lot of the same features - Headphone jack for zero-latency monitoring - XLR and USB connections - Volume/gain controls 🎧 Audio Quality (05:43) This is the side-by-side sound test. Click the time stamp to go directly to the test. ===FINAL RECOMMENDATION=== With nearly identical features, sound quality, and accessories, we think the Samson Q2U is a steal compared to the ATR2100x and is our go-to microphone for new podcasters.
