Podcasting Power Tools

Looking for the best podcast microphone?  Aren’t we all!  Recordinghacks.com just posted recorded audio samples from ten popular broadcast microphones and hopes to select the best microphone for podcasting based on reader votes.  Based on the photos, his selection includes podcasting microphone favorites like the:

Heil PR-40 Microphone

 

Shure SM-7b Microphone

 

Electro-Voice RE-20 Microphone

 

Electro-Voice 635 Microphone

 

Sennheiser MD421-II Microphone

 

AKG C 4500 B-BC Microphone

 

Neumann BCM-705 Microphone

 

Shure SM-57 Microphone

 

Electro-Voice RE27N/D Microphone

There is also one other microphone that I didn’t recognize.  This is a great roundup of podcasting microphones and Matt has all the audio files arranged for blind voting.  I can’t wait to hear which microphone corresponds to which audio files.  My favorite podcast microphone audio file was pretty easy to pick.

Hit up the link below and vote for the microphone that sounds best to you:
