Ive watched quite a few of your videos and i must say. You make all your videos with such quality that when i saw your first video i was thinking to my self, "This guy defiantly has at least 100k subs" then i look at your actual sub count. I am damm impressed keep up the quality videos :)
@@Podcastage I want to use this with my Playstation Gold headset so I can use the Golds on my Xbox (without having to purchase another headset). Will this do the job?
Scratching Beyond The Surface So two years later do you still use your original V boom mic? Because I’ve been wondering about it’s lifespan before buying.
Didn't even realize he was using this mic the whole video... god DAMN it's good. Obviously it clips some but he was basically shouting into it, I won't be talking that loud anyway. Can't wait to pair it with an SHP9500 when they arrive :)
I would say it could sound close to a Snowball with some audio editing. You can hear it clipping a couple times when he talks louder, but that can be fixed pretty easily in Audacity.
a couple time? he clips non-stop.. it's dumb.. he makes this mic sound like shit.. no idea why youtubers allow that to happen in every damn mic test video out there.
I'll be honest, I was skipping through the video to the point where you were testing the audio quality of the mic because I thought: "surely he is using his own mic right now." I'm amazed at how great this mic sounds!
Would love it if you did a bit more on background noise cancellation. I’m a remote worker looking for great in ear audio for music plus a great noise cancelling mic. Seems to be a difficult combo on a budget.
Broooo, I managed to snag the unopened V-Moda Crossfade LP2s (retails ~$150) for $20 but I was disappointed it didn't have a proper mic for streaming. This is a game changer. I'm sold because the quality in this video is insane.
lol that tape moment hahaha wow. that mic really sounds clean. as clean as any of the 100USD presenter mics I've seen from other manufacturers. I've noticed a bit of clipping. Holy crap that has some awesome build quality! When you moved the mic to adjust it, I barely heard any handling noise and any volume drops. 10/10 would love to have one. definitely loving these over modmics.
+LouisM Yeah. In the supplemental article I write, I point out that the signal is really hot and that there is a bit of clipping. My input gain was set at 5% for this. You can fix it by moving the mic slightly farther away though. =)
OMG! the V-Moda BoomPro sound quality is incredible! it's even beating ModMic in every aspect! Cooler Master MH630 is the King of Headsets of 2020! I have HyperX Cloud Mix, I love it! but after suffering from the low mic audio for a long time I found it comes with a defect mic! so whom suffering from this issue it's a mic defect you should replace the mic under the warranty before it ends like what happened to me!
I feel like I'm not the only one watching this, after buying the Playstation Platinum Headset because wow was that mic a disapointment for the price. The even sadder part was that I have a H4N Zoom microphone I use via USB on my PC and quality is amazing. Plug it into the PS4 and it randomly higher pitches everything. Sounds like voice changer, even though that's on the PS3. Sony let me down on that, but thank you so much for the upload.
Gonna be using this mic for my HyperX Cloud Alphas, since it has a removable 3.5 4 pole jack! :D Thanks for the video. It sounds amazing for the price!
Hi bandrew, the Caribbean islands crew here....can't compliment you enough with your tests and reviews......so, we are requesting a test of budget shotgun microphones, in order to identify the ones that are not, but are pushed off as shotgun microphones.....and we need your recommendation on a good, inexpensive shotgun mic.....thanking you in advance......we look forward to it
4:12 ---OMG!! I wanted you to test out the V-Moda mic EXACTLY like that to test how it would do when gaming with Bluetooth Earbuds!! And you did it!!! \0/ 4:12
Hey, there! I really appreciate your review and testing of this mic. I decided to go ahead and get it. I was wondering how you were able to cut out the noise it produces in playback. In your video, the white noise seems pretty much non-existent, however when I listen to myself in recordings, I have white noise issues.. Any suggestions?
No. Just the integrated one in my Motherboard and/or GPU. Maybe therein lies the problem, though... Interference from other things inside the computer? Idk..
WARNING: Plugging the audio jack of this mic into an external DAC and the mic into the mainboard will cause grounding loop noise in the headphones! I'm going to try a ground loop isolator, maybe it'll help.
The mute-switch on mine stopped working after 1 year of use 👎, which is too bad as I love having the mute switch / microphone kill-switch, and the mic quality is very good. Hopefully V-Moda can fix this in future products.
Thank you for sharing your experience with the build quality of this mic, it's super helpful for other people researching. I hope th ey resolve it for you and hope it's fixed on future iterations.
Dingus i got this mic coming tomorrow to connect to my crossfade wireless to play BF1. How isit? also going to connect my cayin C5 amp into the controller then passing into headset
+Podcastage Somewhere around $50 or $60. However, maybe switching it up to Best Headsets under x amount of dollars would be a good idea. Either way, thanks for considering!
I got fed up with conventional "gaming headsets", that compromise too much in sound quality or the mic. The best I had so far was the Hyper X Cloud 2, but they were still way too bassy for anything but gaming with explosions and whatnot. So, I paired the Boompro with a pair of Audio-Technica M50xBTs (the newish Bluetooth version. It has a 3.5mm input vs. the older wired version that has a semi proprietary 2.5mm jack, so note the Boompro won't work on wired M50x's out of the box) and now I have great sound, and a good mic too! Plus I can unplug it and go wireless for music. They're my everything headphones.
Noob question here: Would I need an external sound card or some sort of phantom power since my iMac (desktop mac) has both a mic and a headphone input? I ask this because I tried a logitech headset which, by itself didn't work. With a cheap external sound card I could hear myself, but just barely and only when the gain was turned all the way up, which added a lot of hiss. I really just want a decent headset inexpensive headset for youtube audio, but I'm willing to purchase extra hardware if required. Thanks - very helpful review! (Thumbs up'ed).
awesome vid! i do wana say that you should (in my opinion) also do a keyboard sound pickup test thing while you're not talking. because if i'm skyping someone i'm not CONSTANTLY talking, you know? but that's just my opinion. this was still a great video either way! keep it up man! :]
This or the Samson C01U Pro? The main use will be gaming and I'll ocasionally record some audio for UA-cam math tutorials. I do have a mechanical keyboard and my pc can get loud sometimes, so keep that in mind. Also @podcastage thank you for all the work and effort you put in your videos, it really shows. I'm glad I found this channel.
I don't recall off the top of my head which one picks up less background noise. I PERSONALLY would pick the c01u pro because it's just a better mic, but that's up to you.
Hey, i've heard about some problems with this mic. One of them is having a loud buzzing when connecting the headphone cable to a DAC and the mic to the PC. The second one is that the cable used in this mic makes the headphone sound a lot worse than the original cable. Can you confirm any of this?
+Shiv Lala Yes it should work with it as long as the package you order for the boom arm, or the shockmount comes with the 5/8" to 3/8" mic stand adapter. Both packages came with it for me, so it should work for you too.
+ЋeChairGamr™ You got it exactly right. It's Andrew but with a 'B' in front: BANDREW. =) And I only guarantee a video every Tuesday which I still release every Tuesday. But I have been releasing videos on Friday & Sunday as well. But those other two days are not guaranteed. With this Polling system, I may have to take a few Friday & Sunday's off because people have voted for a few $200+ microphones....so....that means I'm going to be BROKE. HAHA! So yeah. Tuesday, and sometimes Friday & Sunday.
+Podcastage Hey! I just discovered your channel a few days ago and for a (relatively from what I know) new youtuber, I must say I am super impressed. All of your reviews are super professionnal, very clean and scientifically driven. And even though you seem to know quite a lot about mics, you impose the same treatment for each new mic you're reviewing with rigourous and basic - but efficient - methods, and only judge them at the end. And I love your enthousiasm, plus the videos are super good quality. In two words, good job! All of that to just ask you something that might be useful for you too: Why don't you do like in a guy's channel called "Z-Reviews" (very good channel) where the dude reviews (I couldn't have guessed, really, haha!) stuff (mostly high end audiophile headphones and speakers) that subscribers lend to him (he gets an headphone for like a week and then sends it back). Since a lot of the headphones that he is reviewing are rare and quite pricy, he doesn't need to sell a kidney in order to make all of these reviews, haha! And also he gets to review a very large diversity of products thanks to this method. And that's where the first part of my comment comes in hand: you're growing fast, with good quality and trustworthy content. So I guess It'd not be hard to put in place the very same system. I even have already seen a guy in one of your videos in the comment section saying that he could lend you his mic asking for a review. I'm a genius, I know.
Hey there! Would the boom pro works nicely if on the right side of a headset? I have a Oneodio headset with 6.3 on the left and 3.5 on the right but I'm afraid the mic will not pick up sound correctly when plugged on the right side. Thank you for your attention :)
Is this a ctia or omtp output? I'm asking because the dualshock 4's for the ps4 are omtp which negates a lot of the mic cords using the apple standard (ctia).
Podcastage you also nearly reached 2k subs congrats man u should get sponsored by a company or something cause this is your work and you deserve to be paid for your good work (THANKS FOR MAKING THESE VIDS) wish you the best of luck :)
computer man Thanks so much. I don't think I have anywhere near a following that would justify sponsors investing in me. Sponsorships also just make me feel icky when I have to actively promote their products. When I was in a band, I had pickup and string endorsements and that just meant if people asked I would tell them what I used. I wouldn't have to go around and say "HEY EVERYONE LOOK AT WHAT I'M USING!" ... but if I want to make this into a job down the line, I may have to suck it up. Regardless. Thanks so much!
Quintin Fertig That's what's so cool about audio. There aren't any absolutes. It's all up to personal interpretation and personal preference. It's SO COOL! =)
Would this work for Philips Fidelio X2s? With the Mute and Volume Wheel for PS4 and Mobile Gaming?Or are there better Headphones for PS and Phone that Dont need An AMP?I mainly play R6.
+Rhobert Rocker Audio was not edited. It was plugged directly into my computers single TRRS 3.5mm jack and recorded to quicktime with no adjustments made.
-Pro Mark: mod mic has worse sound quality and stupid mounting -Rick Budzak: The m50x's are overhyped headphones, go buy the Status audio cb-1's and this microphone.
I have a pc with a Asus maximus VIII hero motherboard. Do you think i will need to have a usb sound card or will it directly work with my motherboard? Also, is there a way to have better quality noise isolation on this mic?
I'm honestly uncertain if you will need a USB Soundcard. You may not. You can always buy a USB Soundcard if the performance is not up to the level you want. And there isn't any way to get better isolation since it is an omnidirectional mic. The other optino is a Unidirectional Mod Mic 4.0
Hey Bandrew, so i got ths mic and i was wondering there was a way to make the mic sound better in a game voice chat or Discord. Maybe you could make a tutorial.
Shahzad Khan I understand that. But I don't know what the voltage output of the mic input is. Without that information, I don't know how the mic input performs.
Only if the headset has a detachable 3.5mm cable that connects to the headphones. I do not mean a 3.5mm port that you plug the microphone into. This will be a 3.5mm port that you plug a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable to connect it to your computer with.
Podcastage yes, but i have a headset that already has a mic on it, the mic broke on it. So if i plug this in to a headset that has a built-in mic will it still record my voice my voice?
I prefer the audio generated by the mod mic. Also, you can add the mic to ANY headset you want. I don't own a PS4 or know anything about it so I have no idea which one works with it or anything. I just know when running through computer, I like MODMIC4.0 better.
i just got the philips fidelio x2 sounds great btw, and the V-Moda Boom mic is on they way to me via mail i should get them in 2 or 3days. what amp/dac Sound card for the mic input do you recommend? your setup sounds realy good. i game on pc
I got one today. it doesn't pick my voice unless i hold it really close to my mouth any advice guys :( ? (IM USING A GAMING PC) do i still need a sound card, doesnt the mother board have a built in sound card?
What am I supposed to set as the default to device to use this microphone. I have my headphones working but can't figure out how to use the microphone.
I ended up figuring it out. I had to go into the recording section instead of the sound section. Just out of curiousity, what is a TRRS input? I have it plugged into my Creative Omni Soundblaster 5.1 dac amp
+DagicCross Based on the removability of the cord, I would say it should work. But...some headphones have a really strange plug on them that limit what shape rubber grip of the 3.5mm plug can be. But to me it looks like it would work. But once again...this is pure speculation. I don't want to say 100% yes because I have never held those headphones in my hand and tested them...I'm basing this on pictures online.
+Podcastage Thanks for that quick answer! I'm still doing some more research, It is not necessary getting the M50X but I needed a good pair of studio headset with a good mic on, what do you recommend? Most importantly it needs to be comfortable for the purposes :)
DagicCross Lucky for you I just found a solution. Get a really nice pair of headphones that you want, and then get the Omni Directional Mod Mic. =) Mounts right to the headphones and sounds AWESOME!
Man, this thing sounds wildly inconsistent sometimes. On my main desktop plugged into my headphone port, this sounded extremely muffled and kinda terrible. On my notebook/tablet, it sounded clearer, and it sounded much better with a USB sound card.
As soon as I realized you were recording with this microphone from the beginning, I bought it.
Ye
obviously. this impressive. without any software , this mic beats all. probably blue snowball also

Quintin Fertig That's what's so cool about audio. There aren't any absolutes. It's all up to personal interpretation and personal preference. It's SO COOL! =)
Will the audio quality of the mic be affected if I don't use the TRRS splitter?
thank god, finnaly a review of this with a keyboard test!
0 dislikes, damn. I'm impressed!!
This helped me a bunch man. Thanks!
Would this work for Philips Fidelio X2s? With the Mute and Volume Wheel for PS4 and Mobile Gaming?Or are there better Headphones for PS and Phone that Dont need An AMP?I mainly play R6.
does this wire/ cable effect the sound? compared to the original cable?
+MultiWeirdthings Yes..because it provides a new microphone attached to it.
What is better
Bm800
Snowball ice
Vmoda boom pro?
Do microphones like these have playback on them? If not, is there a reliable way to get instant playback through a microphone?
No they don't. You would have to use a DAW to get live monitoring, and there will likely be some latency.
Thank you, last question How would I get audio and the mic together on the mod mic? For the vmoda it is one cable but the vmoda is 2.

Thank you for this review. This s ia nice puppy.
+Luoyisi Shimisi My pleasure. =)
Did you edit your audio? Or it just a good microphone? 🎮
+Rhobert Rocker Audio was not edited. It was plugged directly into my computers single TRRS 3.5mm jack and recorded to quicktime with no adjustments made.
some advice to use it with headphones that have a 2.5mm input, like m50x or hd560s?? please i really need it
I would love the know how it sounds if you have an electric fan that's pretty close to your face.
Hi, would i be able to use this on the hyperx cloud 2? If not, are there any really good alternatives without breaking the bank?
+IronMech Dragon Never used hyperx cloud 2 headset. So I am uncertain. This replaced the cable on a wireless/wired headset.
+Podcastage thank you for the answer! Do you by any chance have good recommendations of headsets to use?
does it work with Audio Technica ATH-ANC700BTBK?
you din't bring pizza pronto XD
(came back to compare after watching your Logitech Pro X review)
Yeah. Some of my older reviews lack certain tests.=(
Do a blue snowball mic review
+Pro VideoGamer99 I did the blue snowball ice, and the blue snowball is already on my poll www.geeksrising.com/podcastage
Will work with the Logitech g733?
Man that is great!
Oh man, I need something like this for my M50Xs :o
mod mic 4.0
-Pro Mark: mod mic has worse sound quality and stupid mounting
-Rick Budzak: The m50x's are overhyped headphones, go buy the Status audio cb-1's and this microphone.
yup yup. i got the status audio hd- one. super happy
Do you think that they would work with the Bose quietcomfort ii and a PS4 ?
Might be too late, but yes they do. You just need to get a 25-35mm adapter. It's super cheap and works good.
Do you use the Quietcomfort with a PS4? If so, how does it sound?
Everyone I know says the v-moda I have sounds better than the modmic 5 I had so I sent the modmic back.
Good review! :D
+Quintin Fertig Thanks Quintin, and thanks for the request.
will this fit my hyperx cloud's
Unfortunately not. It has to be a headset that allows you to remove the 3.5mm headphone cable. This takes the place of that.
I have a pc with a Asus maximus VIII hero motherboard. Do you think i will need to have a usb sound card or will it directly work with my motherboard? Also, is there a way to have better quality noise isolation on this mic?
I'm honestly uncertain if you will need a USB Soundcard. You may not. You can always buy a USB Soundcard if the performance is not up to the level you want. And there isn't any way to get better isolation since it is an omnidirectional mic. The other optino is a Unidirectional Mod Mic 4.0
Hey Bandrew, so i got ths mic and i was wondering there was a way to make the mic sound better in a game voice chat or Discord. Maybe you could make a tutorial.
Are you plugging directly into your computer? If so, try getting a USB Soundcard (preferably SYBA STEREO USB SOUNDCARD).
Podcastage I have a Asus Maximus Mobo, here's my pc part list, pcpartpicker.com/list/RGdHhq
The Motherboard has an Amp and Dac thingy.
Shahzad Khan I understand that. But I don't know what the voltage output of the mic input is. Without that information, I don't know how the mic input performs.
Will it work with a head set that already has mic
Only if the headset has a detachable 3.5mm cable that connects to the headphones. I do not mean a 3.5mm port that you plug the microphone into. This will be a 3.5mm port that you plug a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable to connect it to your computer with.
Podcastage yes, but i have a headset that already has a mic on it, the mic broke on it. So if i plug this in to a headset that has a built-in mic will it still record my voice my voice?
I don't know about that. I'm sorry. I would imagine it would work but I can't say with 100% certainty.
Podcastage okay thanks
@podcastage you did a video on the antlion modmic 4.0. which one is better?
modmic
Could you please explain your opinion?
I like the sound better and you can add it to any headphones you want. You don't need a headphone with a detachable 3.5mm cable.
what camera you use dude?
He uses a webcam
I have actually started using a canon 70d
Podcastage awesome setup!
Does anyone know if these VMODAs will fit inside the ATHM50XBTs. I know the headphone jack is some what recessed.. so not sure if this will fit. Help!
any headphone with 3.5mm input under 50 dollars?
Does it work woth a wored headset?
@Podcastage when you connect the mic , does it let you use the mic and the headphones together
Yes it should.
Can i just use this for having phone conversations on my phone via bluetooth?
If it fits in your phone. You would have to hold it if it not plugged in head phones
@podcastage why, I want it for ps4 gaming. Is there any huge differences?
I prefer the audio generated by the mod mic. Also, you can add the mic to ANY headset you want.
I don't own a PS4 or know anything about it so I have no idea which one works with it or anything. I just know when running through computer, I like MODMIC4.0 better.
thank you
i just got the philips fidelio x2 sounds great btw,
and the V-Moda Boom mic is on they way to me via mail i should get them in 2 or 3days.
what amp/dac Sound card for the mic input do you recommend?
your setup sounds realy good.
i game on pc
The Sabrent usb soundcard should work for the mic input well since it doesn't have a high voltage requirement.
Yo is getting dust in the mic bad for it, and how do I store it
I got one today. it doesn't pick my voice unless i hold it really close to my mouth any advice guys :( ? (IM USING A GAMING PC) do i still need a sound card, doesnt the mother board have a built in sound card?
go look at your audio setting in the control panel' make sure the recording level is not very low and also that the mic mute switvh is not on
They're out of stock on Amazon :(
What am I supposed to set as the default to device to use this microphone. I have my headphones working but can't figure out how to use the microphone.
Do you have a TRRS input on computer?
I ended up figuring it out. I had to go into the recording section instead of the sound section. Just out of curiousity, what is a TRRS input? I have it plugged into my Creative Omni Soundblaster 5.1 dac amp
TRRS is a single 3.5mm port that works as headphone & mic input.
Does this work without sticking it into a headphone? Like I was really interested to know if it works when you taped it to your glasses?
great video , do u think u can do a video with apple headphones and review them using its mic
+Pray Nicoya I suppose that's something I could do down the line.
I've found that the arm doesn't stay where I put it.
Would try this but my beats snapped in half
GwLEdits Because Beats are shit.
Will these work with my HyperX Cloud iis?
+CrouchHop Gaming Have never tested out the HyperX Cloud II. Will most likely be doing so next month though.
Podcastage Great! Hope you will be doing a video on it :)
does this mic with work the ATH-M50X? I asked so many places but still waiting for answer... :(
+DagicCross Based on the removability of the cord, I would say it should work. But...some headphones have a really strange plug on them that limit what shape rubber grip of the 3.5mm plug can be. But to me it looks like it would work. But once again...this is pure speculation. I don't want to say 100% yes because I have never held those headphones in my hand and tested them...I'm basing this on pictures online.
+Podcastage Thanks for that quick answer! I'm still doing some more research, It is not necessary getting the M50X but I needed a good pair of studio headset with a good mic on, what do you recommend? Most importantly it needs to be comfortable for the purposes :)
DagicCross Lucky for you I just found a solution. Get a really nice pair of headphones that you want, and then get the Omni Directional Mod Mic. =) Mounts right to the headphones and sounds AWESOME!
Man, this thing sounds wildly inconsistent sometimes. On my main desktop plugged into my headphone port, this sounded extremely muffled and kinda terrible. On my notebook/tablet, it sounded clearer, and it sounded much better with a USB sound card.
I think that the real issue is inconsistency in audio ports on motherboards.
Probably. This desktop has given me some trouble with noise/interference in USB as well. Just bought a Sabrent to see if the noise continues.
