The Best Shotgun Mic for Youtube in 2024 - Joby Wavo Plus

This week I review the Joby Wavo Plus. This microphone is a newcomer to the competition of best shotgun or super cardiod microphone for Youtubers, videographers, and smartphone content creators. Sporting a small footprint, lightweight build, and tons of features, this mic certainly packs a punch. I'll be rating the microphone's performance in four categories:

Vlogging: Is this a microphone that is optimized for youtube vloggers? Here I'm looking for small size and dependability.

Studio Recording: Will the mic easily fit into a studio workflow?

Audio Quality: this is obvious- does the Joby Wavo Plus sound good?

Value: Finally, at $200, is the microphone worth the money?

Whether you're upgrading your current setup or exploring options for superior audio, the Joby Wavo Plus could be the game-changer you've been searching for here in 2024.

Quick question. Do you set your in camera audio gain to 1 or lowest gain set? Also, seeing the -10/-20/ 0 gain option on mic, does it autocorrect levels in mic?

Thank u, i have 700 dollars, Chile, going for the rode pro and this one!

In your test the Joby gave more mids and clarity, while the Rode had more base, too much base for my taste, somehow muffled as others mentioned yet.

Great video! I'm considering buying the Joby, it all sounds very good

[AngelaZuniga]

I came here from your Rode Mic video and I think you sold me on this Joby one, I’m on the market for a shotgun mic specifically for vlogging. 🤔

[JamesMotis]

how would the joby mic be for sports video?

[RealFrostyDK]

In my opinion, the Joby Microphone produces superior sound quality. I am unsure whether it is specific to my headset or not, but I find that the Joby microphone delivers clearer audio compared to the Rode microphone, which tends to sound somewhat muffled and makes it more challenging to discern the words.
