Zoom P4 PodTrak - Podcasting Mixer and Interface

Product Information

I have both the Rode NT1-A, and the Shure SM58, but I use the Rode NT1-A, and the sound is absolutely encredible! It can make your voice less bassy and helps to reduce the proximity effect if that is what you want. Since the latest models of iPhone and iPad do not have a headphone jack any longer, this allows you to plug a cable into the lightning jack.

And each of those inputs has its own mic preamplifier and converter, and phantom power switch (for condenser mics).

Though the limiter function removes the worry that you’ll end up with distorted, clipped audio, it has a major downside.

Although that wasn’t the ideal start and made me question the build quality of the unit, as stated above the SD card door has been fine since.
