Rode NT1-A Complete Vocal Recording Reviews
Fantastic mic for getting going
For the price, I gotta say this mic is perfect for anyone starting out with home recording.
Its crisp.. sometimes almost too crisp in the high-end. But generally wonderful. Especially for the price.
Great Microphone For The Price
For everyone that is looking for a good mic at an affordable price, this is the way to go in my opinion. Build quality sturdy, shock mount fairly good, sound airy. A good mic.
Great Microphone
The microphones works excellent, nice sound and quality.
Best low-price mic I have tried
I have used this mic more than any other mic. And I keep coming back to it, when I try other mics. Sometimes I even chose this mic, over other mics that are 10x the price. Extreme value for money. I will recommend it to anyone I meet!
Very happy with the performance for my first microphone
You get what you pay for
You get what you pay for, I would recommend this item to anyone trying to start their projects or set up their home studio. If you are a bit skilled with microphone technique and mixing, you can get a pretty decent sound., I would recommend this item to anyone trying to start their projects or set up their home studio.

Excellent
This is such a great microphone. The clarity is amazing. I have used it mainly for recording podcasts and it has improved the quality of recording immensely.
On a separate note, I bought it as a package deal with a stand and sound isolator, neither of which were fit for purpose. Don’t be tempted to buy things in these deals. You will be sorry you did. Better to buy separately. Great mic, though!
met all expectations
It is the best in its price range, clear sound excellent voice transmission
Great mic!
Great mic! It has nice and clear sound, I've been using it for clean vocal for a bit now and I like it.
Rode NT-1A Microphone bundle - fantastic
Wow, I was blown away at just how good this mic is for the money. I noticed a huge improvement over my previous mic. Great for vocals and instruments. It is very sensitive and can pick up background noise so ensure you have good sound insulation when recording. Solidly built, well-made and very recommended.
Très bon achat
Très content de la qualité de ce micro, conviendra à toute personne ayant pour but de se construire son premier studio.
Perfecf
I have found this microphone to be the perfect starter microphone. Works wonders on vocals with plenty of disparity between low end and high end. Also sounds great wired up to a guitar amp or as a drum room mic. I bought this a few years ago and see no need to replace it anytime soon.
Perfect for its cost
Great microphone for a very reasonable price.
Pros: Very little noise, excellent recording quality (for this price range), a full 10 years warranty.
Cons: Rather caustic upper frequencies
Best combination of price and quality.
Highly recommended!
Great value for money microphone
I use it for home vocals recordings and does the job perfect! Value for money in my opinion if your are not a pro and just want to complete you tracks with vocals in your home studio.
Perfect
May not be the most expensive microphone out there, but this is a fantastic piece of equipment. Great addition to my studio, very crisp and clear. 100% happy.
Complete Package with high qality
Very high quality sound rcording
Great value for money
Nice warm vocals. I use to use the AT2035, the Rode has a warmer and whole sound compared to the AT2035.
Good Sound
Good Mic, though I had some problem getting it to work The First Time. There was some low rumble noise, even on different interfaces and cables. It works fine now and is a good Mic.
The Stand and Pop-Shield could be improved, but work ok.
The Best Beginners Mic
This is a classic mic. If you are starting out recording, then I feel it is the best mic to begin with. A classic, easy to set up with a balanced sound, it is both evenly balanced and great value for money.
You cannot choose the field pattern but it doesn't matter if you are just starting. It has lush sensitivity for vocals and speech.
Rode are my go to company for mics. They make quality gear and I highly recommend having this mic in your tool kit.
Perfect microphone for versatile use!
From recording vocals, and guitars to sound effects, etc. this microphone covers it all. I am very happy with the accuracy and frequency response that it delivers. But the quality of the stand which is included isn't that good.
P.S. For working you will need 48 V phantom power.
