User questions & answers

Question:	Does rode honor the 10 year warranty extension on microphones purchased from this amazon who calls themself "the rode store

Answer:	My microphone did not come with ableton lite, however there are some adapters, such as the solo scarlet that comes with several software choices.
Question:	Como se conecta a la computadora
Answer:	Cómo cualquier otro micrófono con conexión XLR, necesitarás una interfase o una caja que provea phantom power y una conexión estable. Es mi recomendación para sonido claro y profesional. Chequea más detalles en YouTube.

Product description

The NT-USB is a highly versatile side-address microphone that is ideal for recording singing and musical performances in addition to spoken applications such as podcasting and voice-over. It is fully compatible with all mainstream recording applications on both Windows and Mac OS based computers, as well as the Apple iPad using Rode Rec, Garage Band, or any other recording app that accepts an external microphone. Use on the Apple iPad requires a suitable USB connection adaptor, such as the Apple Camera Connection Kit. The body of the NT-USB features a zero-latency stereo headphone monitoring (3.5mm) jack, which allows you to monitor the microphone input in real-time, along with dials to adjust the monitoring level and mix between the computer/iPad audio and the microphone input. A premium pop-filter is included, which fits onto the base of the mic, positioning the filter the ideal distance from the capsule to minimize plosives (hard 'B', 'T' or 'P' sounds that produce a harsh sound) during singing or speech. Also provided is a high-quality stand mount with industry standard 3/8" thread, desktop tripod stand that allows the NT-USB to sit at a comfortable height on a tabletop, and a pouch for storage of the microphone when not in use. Compatible with both Windows and Mac computers, as well as the Apple iPad via the USB camera connection kit (available directly from Apple) Gain setting: When the gain is set too high, the microphone will be too sensitive and can pick up room noise that can even be heard as a hiss. When the gain is set too low, the microphone will be barely audible. Compatible with the SMR shockmount & WS2 foam windshield.

• Buy only from Amazon.com (labelled ‘shipped and sold by Amazon.com’)
• High quality studio microphone with the convenience of USB connectivity
• Pop shield, Tripod desk stand, ring mount, storage pouch and 6m (20’) USB cable included
• 3.5 millimeter stereo headphone jack for zero-latency monitoring

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this screw on to a microphone stand? or do I need to buy a shockmount? if so, which one
Answer:	This should screw on to any standard mic stand. I purchased this folding mic boom arm with my Rode and it works with no problem. "NEEWER Microphone Suspension Boom Scissor Arm Stand" You shouldn't need a shock mount unless you want one.
Question:	Is the rode compatible with Mixcraft? Also is there a delay when you are monitoring your mic input
Answer:	In Windows 10 this becomes an audio input device and it has worked with several applications I use - Zoom, Camtasia, Techsmith Relay, Audacity, and a few others. I use it almost daily.
Question:	Will Rode provide a warranty from this seller
Answer:	We are a RODE USA authorized dealer, so if you buy from will get the RODE warranty.
Question:	Excuse me. Do the Rode NT-USB USB include the microphone windshield
Answer:	Hello, Yes it does come with the pop shield that is made specifically for the NT-USB. It works great.

User questions & answers

Question:	Would these sound great as audience mics
Answer:	Not as hand held. These are a mount and cover a stage type of mic. I love them to get my wife's choirs covered as they pick up everything. Hope this helps!Jeff
Question:	can they be used for asmr making？Are they Binaural Microphone
Answer:	These are not binaural microphones; however they could be use as part of a binaural rig if you have a dummy head or some other similar apparatus in which to mount them that would mimic the spacing and shape of human ears.
Question:	I do not and have never had something to records with. If i were to buy these mics what else would I need to record. Like cables and equipment
Answer:	To record with these mics, you would need two balanced XLR cables. You would also need some sort of pre-amp into which to plug them which is capable of supplying phantom power. You would also need a recording device. Many recording devices include preamps and phantom power so that you can run the XLR cable directly into the recorder. As a baseline for a quality recording device, consider something like the Zoom F4 or the Sound Devices MixPre3 or MixPre3M. Zoom also makes less expensive devices, but the preamps really lack in quality by comparison.
Question:	How well would these work in video production
Answer:	It would depend upon what you intend to shoot. The best uses for the microphones would include things such as choral or acoustic music in a controlled environment. If you intend to capture ambient or general sound such as machinery, ocean waves, dogs barking, cars driving by, these would be quite sufficient. If you intent to capture dialogue, I would suggest either a worn mic, a handheld mic (if you don't mind it being in the shot), or a shotgun mic (with or without a handheld boom). For the M5s to work well for dialogue, they would need to be so close to the speaker that they would necessarily be in the shot on a stand as these cannot be handheld without serious handling noise. You would need something much more directional to get decent sounding speech.These microphones arranged properly basically pick up the same sounds that our ears do in real space--but that doesn't always quite work for video. In real life, our brains do a fantastic trick of filtering out all of the background or unwanted sounds so that we can zero in on what we are trying to hear. Video confuses that process in our brains, so we have to take a different tact. We have to capture sound that actually isn't perfectly true to life, but makes it seem that way when we watch the video.I don't intend to be patronizing with this response; I just want you to get what you really want.

User questions & answers

Question:	well this work for my animation for lip sync and a use the program audacity and widows 10 well it work
Answer:	As a microphone and interface, it should work with any computer, digital audio software, and OS. Just be aware that it’s a condenser mic, and as such, very sensitive. That means if you don’t have a quiet room or sound proof booth, it will pick up outside ambient noises, many of which can be filtered out later with your DAW. However the kit is great, and the quality is top notch, and the price of the bundle is a huge cost savings. The only potential limitation is that it has a single mic/instrument input, which isn’t a big deal if you’re recording one track at a time. Even though it seems pricey, I’d recommend the road PSA1 articulating microphone arm. It works great in the inverted position, and the pop filter stays well anchored upside down. Also check out Reaper for your software! See my full length review on the product page for more details.
Question:	Can I use this for my mobile phone
Answer:	I think this is only compatible with MAC OS, and PC. The NT1 microphone could be purchased separately with the Rode iXLR to accomplish what you want here.
Question:	I use apple headphones. how do i connect these to listen to my voice - is there an adapter i should buy - or what headphones should i get? thanks
Answer:	Assuming the connector is 3.5mm, you would need a 3.5mm to 1/4” (6.3mm) adapter. The Rode interface will be able to power most easy to drive consumer and professional headphones for monitoring reasonably well.
Question:	Can this product still be used if your computer does not have a usb c port? can i use a usb c to usb type b cable instead
Answer:	The answer to your question is yes! The USB C connection is to the Rode interface, the other end of that connection goes to your computer and that can be the more common USB B connector.

Rode NT1 1" Cardioid Condenser Microphone

The NT1 is a 1" diaphragm condenser microphone developed with a focus on detailed midrange response, coupled with silky smooth high frequencies, and warm, round, bass reproduction to make the NT1 an absolute standout. The transducer itself is suspended inside the microphone using Rycote’s Lyre system, minimizing external vibrations at the capsule level. The capsule is then married to high-grade electronics that have been designed to provide the lowest noise level possible. The NT1 is an incredibly quiet microphone, measuring only 4.5dBA of self-noise. Its body is machined from 6061 aluminum and then nickel plated for resistance against corrosion. Finally it is coated in a durable, military-grade ceramic layer, using advanced electrostatic application techniques developed by RØDE to ensure an extremely hard wearing finish that is resistant to scratches or marks.

Rode NTG2

The RØDE NTG2 is a lightweight condenser shotgun microphone, designed for professional applications within the film, video, television and production industries.

Its full frequency response, low noise and audio transparency make it an ideal film, video, and voice over microphone, while its low weight (161gm./5.7oz. without battery) makes it an ideal boom microphone.

In addition to the native 20Hz-20kHz frequency response a selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz is available, which will prevent low end noise such as air conditioners and traffic from being recorded.

The NTG2 operates either from a AA (1.5V) battery or P48 phantom power which can be supplied by professional cameras, audio recorders and power supplies. The battery power option makes the NTG2 ideal for scenarios where the camera does not supply phantom power such as DSLR video.

The WSVM windshield is supplied to minimise light wind noise and plosives during recording. The optional 'DeadCat' furry is recommended for outdoor applications.

The RØDE NTG2 shotgun microphone is designed and made in Australia, and covered by RØDE Microphones' industry leading 10 year warranty.

Question:	Hi I want to know if it works 100% and if it comes with shock mount? THANKS FOR YOU TIME
Answer:	Yes and yes
Question:	Can it use phantom power from focuserite? And all go into a MacBook Pro? I'm trying to build a good studio thanks
Answer:	The NTK is a tube mic, and it has it's own power supply. The mic plugs into the power supply with a 7-pin mic cable, and then you connect the power supply to your mic pre, via a standard 3-pin xlr cable. No phantom needed at all.
Question:	can i use this mic in my studio...for vocal rec purpose,,,,,,,,,also say with wch system and mixer its compatible
Answer:	Definitely! It is primarily designed for vocal recording, providing a smooth and warm tone, perfect for both male and female vocals. Being that it is a tube mic, it has it's own power supply, so all you need is a mic pre and interface (or an interface with a mic pre). Do note that tube mics do have a warm up period, so you will want to turn on the mic for about 30mins prior to recording, so that tube is nice and warm.
Question:	Whats the advantage of the power supply over using phantom power from my interface
Answer:	It’s a necessity, not am advantage
