Rode Nt 1A Microphone

I expected very good, but this is amazing, what it does for me....so clean, so smooth, such headroom. They really went to work on this one... ---the freq response is almost ruler flat unlike the NT-1A, so it is beefy and smooth on the lows, silky on the highs. The fuss about the NT-1A as harsh up high (though great for some people) has been addressed...the spectrum is like the supper pricey mics. The lack of little tuning bumps also means you can EQ it to sound like other mics, without the side-effect of a ringing response. You can make a nice crisp NT1-A! or a TLM-102-stalker by doing next to nothing.. so good.. ----the shockmount is compositive plastic, hi-quality.. no massive anchor of cast metal to tip over the tripod. The damping and vibration suppression testout (thump/spectrum testing) is way ahead of the stiff elastic-bungy type. The metal pop-filter? sweet! There is the personal match too, of course...this just works with me on voiceovers so well..

I purchased this with the Rode NT-USB Mini microphone and they function beautifully together. I had returned another company’s boom arm that was too stiff to be functional. This works great, is sturdy and is especially good for a limited space. Great flexibility and a good price.

I have a RODE NT-1 Condenser microphone, which is a very good microphone, with a very nice sound for human voices. However, I was having to use the NT-1 in a room that is not sound proof and the NT-1 is VERY sensitive to background noises. After much research I decided to order the Shure SM7B and I am very pleased. I combined the SM7B with a FetHead inline preamp feeding into my RODECaster Pro. The signal is very clean, dramatic drop in background noise pickup, and the SM7B has a superb sound for voices. Add in the form factor on a boom arm is much less intrusive in front of the face than the NT-1 with the pop filter in place is and it makes using the SM7B much nicer when the camera is turned on. All in all a very positive purchase, would not hesitate getting a second (or third) SM7B if I needed to do a multi person web cast, or recording.

I bought B&H's Rode NT-USB Mini USB Microphone Kit with Broadcast Arm and Closed-Back Headphones (BH #RONTUSBMINIB) and was fairly happy with it, but wanted to reduce sound transmitted through the desk-mounted arm. It seems that most shock mounts hold the barrel of the microphone, but the Rode NT-USB mini is a rectangular block rather than a cylinder. It bolts into this mount just fine though. The reduction in sound conducted through the arm is very noticeable. I don't have experience with other shock mounts to compare to, but this works better than I expected.

Works well with my RODE NT-USB! Easy setup!

One of the best stands you can get for the money. I use it with my rode nt usb mic for YouTube videos.

I love how smooth and easy this arm is to use. Works perfectly with my Rode NT-USB.

used on a Rode microphone-very little signal loss.

What can I say, it’s a Rode. There’s a reason why the NT-1 is one of the biggest selling microphones. The sound quality is superb. The cool colors are perfect for my daughter’s podcast. Really stands out. Great value for the money. Comes with everything you need. Great for vocals or whatever you put in in front of. Dry low self noise so you can compress it not expect noise. For the price, add one to your mic locker…you won’t be disappointed.

This was a premium with my Rode NT 1. It does a great job creating a dead environment around the mic in an otherwise overly live room. I needed to create a way to raise the unit up off my desktop to get it behind the mic. They do give you brackets if you use them, the who thing is kind of rickety since it is heavy and cantilevering it off my my mic stand was, well, Rube Goldberg. I had some 4x4 that I cut three six inch pieces off for the feet to stand on. Even painted them. Perfect.
