Legendary microphone that sounds great on some voices with the proper wind protection. Good enough for a few decades of US Presidents.

James Barnes uses Zoom H4n Pro for Who's Piloting this Podcast? PodKit Member

I tried some other soundboard options, including a blatant knockoff of this product, but Rogue Amoeba’s software embodies the “just works” philosophy. Flexible, uncrashable, and simply easy to use.
