Create Professional-Sounding Podcasts
Whether you're taking your first step into podcasting or upgrading your setup, the Zoom ZDM-1 Podcast Mic Pack gives you the essential tools to capture professional-quality spoken-word audio. The kit combines the ZDM-1 large-diaphragm dynamic microphone with ZHP-1 closed-back headphones, a TPS-4 tabletop tripod, a custom windscreen, and a 2-meter XLR microphone cable, giving you a complete recording setup for podcasts, interviews, livestreams, voiceovers, and content creation.
Broadcast-Quality Vocal Sound
The ZDM-1 large-diaphragm dynamic microphone is designed to capture clear, detailed vocals with tight bass and smooth high frequencies that complement a wide range of voices. Its dynamic capsule and 50 Hz–18 kHz frequency response make it well suited to close-mic podcasting and other spoken-word applications.
Supercardioid Pickup for Cleaner Recordings
The ZDM-1 features a supercardioid polar pattern that focuses on the sound source while rejecting unwanted sound from the sides. This helps minimize background noise and keeps the microphone focused on the person speaking, making it a strong choice for podcast studios, home recording spaces, and other environments where controlling ambient sound matters.
High SPL Handling
With a 135 dB maximum SPL, the ZDM-1 is built to handle high sound pressure levels without unwanted clipping or distortion. That gives the microphone plenty of headroom for dynamic vocal performances and other loud sources.
Designed to Reduce Unwanted Noise
The ZDM-1 incorporates an internal shock-absorbing mechanism that isolates the microphone capsule from handling noise and ambient vibrations. A built-in humbucking circuit also helps reject electromagnetic interference from power lines, computer monitors, cell phones, and other electronic devices, helping you capture cleaner audio in real-world recording environments.
Built for Daily Use
The ZDM-1 features a robust all-metal body and grille designed to withstand regular use in the studio or in the field. The included pivoting microphone stand mount and threaded European mic stand adapter give you flexible mounting options, while the custom windscreen provides an additional layer of protection for your recordings.
Professional Monitoring
The included ZHP-1 closed-back headphones provide detailed monitoring while you record and edit. Featuring 40 mm neodymium drivers, a 10 Hz–20 kHz frequency response, and 68 Ω rated impedance, the ZHP-1 gives you a dedicated monitoring solution for your podcast setup. Its 3-meter single-sided cable provides plenty of reach around a desktop recording environment.
