NT1-A Complete Vocal Recording : Low budget mic

12 years ago

The Rode Nt1-A is a perfect microphone for recording beginner.

The recording bundle is good at it's price/value relation.

You get a microphone with all equipment you need to start recording.

Including a cable, shockmount and pop filter.

The Nt1-A has a brilliant tone resolution, especially high freqeuencies are emphasized.

I use this microphone in my home recording studio for vocals and guitar amp recordings.

I don't like the way the microphone sounds on male vocals, because of the emphasized frequencies. So I just use it for female vocals.

If one would compare this microphone to a Neumann or something else in this price range, he would determine that there is a big difference in sound.

But in the price range from 150-300€, personally the Rode Nt1-A is my favorite vocal studio mic.
