    • Rode NT1 (5th gen) is versatile, phenomenal. Parkdeals reliably delivered.
Model: NT1 5th Gen Color: Black
The reputation of this mic's line is already legendary...and well deserved. It comes excellently packaged from the manufacturer. The external shipping packaging was designed to protect it well and minimize shock to the mic, which I really appreciate. When I ordered it, the length of time for receipt was longer than I had hoped for because I was anxious to get it, and I was concerned about that, but it did arrive two days EARLIER that promised, which I was happy to see. If it had been shipped closer to the order date, I would have been ecstatic, but the monitoring software indicated it didn't go out for days...if I hadn't been antsy, this would probably not have bothered me at all...I still received it before it was promised. So I'd be inclined to order from these folks again. The mic is absolutely impressive. Sensitive to all the right sounds without excessive noise floor. Recording quality is phenomenal...unbelievable. It is insanely easy to use with a 32-bit float supporting software through a USBc cable (provided). It also comes with an XLR cable for folks with more professional equipment. Remember to download the ASIO plug in from rode.com. It is attractive, looks like it belongs in the studio, and fits precisely into the Rode boom (a separate purchase) which is solid and strong enough to support it properly and silently in any position I'd need. The mic also comes with a dust cover so I can protect it when not in use, an added touch that those making every attempt to take care of their recording equipment value. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase Rode products from this merchant again! ... show more

    • Best NT1 yet! Love it
Model: NT1 5th Gen Color: Black
Love the tone, 32 bit float in USB. Just wish it had a headphone input for direct monitoring in USB. Total beast in XLR though. Great for my voice-over workflow. Just know you will need acoustic treatment in your room if using for voice over work, or a a closet with room enough for both you and your clothes! Performs well above the price tag! ... show more

    • Great microphone
Model: NT1 5th Gen Color: Black
The media could not be loaded. Great microphone, incredible quality people always point out my great microphone quality when playing games saying it sounds very professional and incredibly clear. I would say this is a great option for someone that doesn’t want to go to XLR cause the USB output is very similar to the XLR output when it comes to clearness just slightly different when it comes to quality but very similar. If you know that you’re going to go with a XLR setup I would say get one of the other NT1 options as they deliver the same or similar quality for a cheaper price but if you know you will use the USB version its a incredible option and probably one of the best USB microphones you’ll ever find. I’ve had the microphone for about 4-5 months and have not had a single negative experience with it. ... show more

    • Favorite Mic In My Studio (Classic Look + Modern Tech= Brilliant Sound)
Model: NT1 5th Gen Color: Black
Bought this to upgrade my studio. I podcast and record music (trombone, guitar, voice) from time to time. This is my absolute favorite microphone. I've used mics of all different price points. This mic sounds great and gives a timeless look (music fans should see just how much music has been recorded on the classic Rode NT1). ... show more

    • Fantastic sound quality after a bit of fiddling
Model: NT1 5th Gen Color: Black
I've been using this with the USB-C connection and it's got really striking quality but default settings leave it inaudibly quiet. Setting the volume to 95 in the Windows sound settings seems to be about the sweet spot but be prepared to play with it a bit. Other than that, it's been very much just plug and play. ... show more

    • The best XLR mic for the money.
Model: NT1 5th Gen Color: Black
I bought this for my son because he is a voice actor. He used a blue Yeti for years and wanted to upgrade to something better with XLR capability. This was his choice. He uses it for professional voice acting in video games, his pod casts, and his streaming. Its simply the best for the money and it has a great recording sound. ... show more
