Joby is still better-known for its GorillaPods than any of its audio gear, but it's aiming to change that with a significantly expanded lineup. The company has introduced several microphones built for creatives like podcasters and streamers, and it's clearly chasing after incumbents like Blue and Rode. The Wavo Pod (pictured above), for instance, is a USB condenser microphone aimed at would-be Blue Yeti buyers. The simple upright design and boom support will seem familiar, but Joby is counting on the 24-bit/48KHz sampling (versus the Yeti's 16-bit/48KHz), an included pop filter and a lower $100 price to sway customers. It's available today.
