Rode M1-S 5-stars Reviews

First microphone

Having relied for years on a microphone built into my gaming headset I decided to take a gamble and buy the Rode M1-S, this was the first professional microphone I bought and the intention is to use it for youtube vid recording and singing, so as you could imagine there is always going to be some anxiety to be felt when buying a microphone, as you're not sure which mic is good.

The first impressions of the mic was that there was a bit of weight to it, as I was not expecting it to be as heavy as it is. The design is solid and seems to be built to take punishment (drops to the floor etc) The set up with my Native Instrument Komplete Audio 6 was simple (don't forget to get an XLR cable). The sound quality is amazing, there was no background noise just crystal clear recording, was incredibly happy with this. Overall I am very happy with this microphone.
