Q: Is this microphone compatible with other RØDE products?
A: The RØDE PodMic is compatible with most RØDE digital voice recorders.

Q: Does this microphone have a pop filter?
A: Yes, the RØDE PodMic has an internal pop filter to minimize plosives.
Q: What accessories come with this?
A: All you get is the microphone on a y-mount. Nothing else. The y-mount itself is neat because there is no adapter required for most boom arms. It has both a 3/8 or 5/8 thread. Note: This mic is very sensitive to 'plosives' and despite being advertised as having a built-in windscreen, I would suggest buying a cheap foam windscreen or pop filter.
Q: What is the thread size of the arm attached to it? Is it 5/8 in?
A: The y-mount has BOTH threads available. You can either attach an arm with a 3/8 or 5/8 thread. Both sizes are built into the y-mount.
Q: Is this compatible with Mac? If so, how do I do it?
A: This is an XLR microphone which requires an XLR audio interface to be plugged into. As long as the interface you use is compatible with MacOS you should be able to use this microphone without any issues. Try the Scarlet Solo that Best Buy sells on their website.
