NT1-A Complete Vocal Recording : Fantastic

10 years ago

I bought this mic as I was getting right down into the noise floor of my other microphones doing some extremely quiet sound effect recording.

This mic really blew me away, the noise floor is incredibly low and the sound isn't too coloured making it an ideal foley microphone!

The kit comes with a pop filter which is integrated into the shock mount cradle. This can be removed by unscrewing the lower wingnut-style bolt. The cable feels decent quality too and is on my rack in the studio as one of the go-to quick-grab cables I use in a flash on inspiration.

My only criticism would be the lack of hardcase like the MXL990.
