| Subject: | I do compair it to a u87 |
| Quality:
| Unless you drop it or abuse it some other way there's not much to go wrong with any good microphone just keep it clean and dry and don't use it for something it was not intended for a good mic will last longer then you do,I have approximately 50 microphones and only a couple really cheap ones went bad,Audix, Peavy are the only ones that went bad on me and they both are at least 25 years old.Keep it clean and handle it with care and you wont go wrong and I plan on buying several more Rhode condenser microphones in the near future. |
| Features:
| Yes I think so far I like it over my U87 because it sounds as good without the room noise you get with the U87 that air noise if you know what I mean, and mine is the old nt1 not the nt 1 a so if the NT 1 A is a improvement it would be the best mic in the world at any price. |
| Ease of Use:
| Plug it to a preamp and go, you don't need expensive pre's if you have good mic's that is the biggest hipe in the recording world a good beheringer or Art tube preamp is all anyone needs if they know what they are doing and have a great recorder some times you get as good a sound from the pre's on the recording board as the $3000.00 preamp believe me that's wasted money. |
| Sound:
| The tone is amazing like I said I like it better then my U87 or c400b, Audix and At 4033. It is just simply the best on most vocals but with that said all vocals don't work as good on any one Mic some times the old Audix sounds better or even a Shure Sm58 but that's the exception not the norm. |
| Value:
| Value in unbelievable at the price I paid, My Newman u 87 was $2600.00 and I gave 110.00 for this mic on ebay.The quality on vocals is just as good{Better} on vocals that's all I've tried it on so I cant say on anything else,I use small condenser or Shure sm57's on just about everything else in the studio and I do not use large condenser mic's on stage. |

| Quality:
| Haven't had it long enough to say one way or the other, but it looks sturdy. |
| Features:
| Lightweight, sleek, and gorgeous. All words I would use to describe this mic. I'm piecing together a low budget studio so I need the best gear for my buck. The Rode will not disappoint. I use it primarily for vocals but also on my electric guitar. It sounds great! Thumbs up to Australia. |
| Ease of Use:
| By having no low/high pass switches this mic is simplified to the maximum. Plug and play. The manual even has tips on mic placement for different applications. |
| Sound:
| Gorgeous dahling, gorgeous. |
| Value:
| One of the best mic's for the price. |

| Quality:
| Same as the guy before me, I would risk my life for this mic. |
| Features:
| Stupid zipper pouch, needs a carrying case. But the quality of the mic won't let me ding them a point for this. I'll just keep the box and store the mic in it when not in use. |
| Ease of Use:
| Plug and play. No EQ really needed to achieve a good sound if your room isn't awful. |
| Sound:
| This thing is amazing. Best mic in my locker. It does everything. Vocals, acoustic, you name it. |

| I love the quality and durability of this product. Just the fact that we are able use it on the road day after day, yep you hear right on the road not in the studio. this is where it get's the job done. |
| Features:
| I've been very impressed with the large area this mic will pick up. but I would love to have a metal case to protect it on the road. don't think the box will last too long. |
| Ease of Use:
| Just attach the mic base to the stand, stick the mic in the base, plug up and play no questions! |
| Sound:
| The tone and sound quality is awesome, from sweet vocal harmonies to clear tones of the instruments it's a winner. |
