Do I need a wireless mic for podcasting, or is USB fine?
Reviewer consensus
Reviewers across Podcastage and The Podcast Host agree that for stationary single-host podcasts, a USB/XLR dynamic like the Shure MV7+ or a USB condenser like the HyperX QuadCast 2 delivers better sound than wireless lavaliers. Wireless systems like the DJI Mic Mini are the consensus pick when you're recording video, moving around, or capturing multiple speakers in the field.
