Night and Day when you move from the Camera audio to the Rode. I was about to curse for making a video that starts with Bad audio .... but what a surprise ending. Thanks for creating the sharp contrast that helps people like me appreciate good sound recording and playback.
Excellent video! I litterally watched this because I wasn't sure if I needed that thing called phantom power? I'm glad I set everything up pretty much just like you! :)
Hello, everyone! I just bought and finished setting up this microphone, and I thought I’d address the main issue with the pop filter I had in case anyone ran into a similar problem. If you’re having trouble being able to maintain the vertical adjustments to the pop filter/can’t screw it in enough to stop it spinning in place once everything else is installed, there’s a ring-shaped plastic washer that goes inside the piece you screw that holds the filter place. I didn’t see any of the reviews or tutorials I watched mention this tiny piece, but finding this out saved me from having to order a new filter!
@@user-xh8dl3xd6q Thanks for sharing that info. I'm sure it will be helpful. It's been a few years now, and fortunately I have not had any issues with my set up.
I really shouldn't watch these. God I love unboxing a new microphone. Now I have to buy something. I already have the NT1. Grrrrr.... Nice vid. Maybe too nice... :)
Thanks to your unboxing video, I was able to put mine back in the box. I always have trouble getting the shock mount and pop filter put away in the box. Thank you!
I got my N1 about a month ago and really love it. It has that flat, fat sound that I was looking for. If I have a complaint, and it's only a small one, I find that the pop filter adds weight that makes it very top heavy either on a stand or even more so on a desktop stand - which is how I use it. I had to get a desktop stand with a very heavy base for it to be more stable. It helps a lot but extra care is still needed if you don't want it to tumble. I'm thinking that a pop filter that connects to the stand itself would have made things much better. I'm sure I'll find a way around this. But other than that it's a very good mic. I'm extremely happy with it.
It definitely helps to align the mic/ shock mount/pop filter combo over one of the mic stand legs, for better balance and support. Glad you are enjoying your mic. TIP: Be sure to use the little protective bag to protect the mic when it is not being used. Just remember to remove it when recording... and I always do a quick "mic check"recording, to make sure everything is connected and good to go before proceeding. Enjoy!
Great video...I've had my NT1 for about 12 months...it's great...flat response and uncolored...slightly different pop filter though...oblong shaped metal one
Thank you so much for this video , I'm getting started soon as a voice actor and this really helped me a lot ,I'd like to ask you how to avoid damaging the microphone ? I've seen a video in which he specified that you could damage the microphone when you plug it in and I want to avoid that
So glad you found it helpful! Not sure how you would damage the mic when you plug it it. Mine works perfectly, as I connected it in the video. I use it several times a week. As soon as I'm done with it, I put the little black dust bag on the mic to keep it dust free, and I unplug the usb that connects the interface to my computer. I keep the mic in the same safe place, so all I need to do is just plug in the usb and open Garageband to record. I always do a test recording before every project, to make sure it's working properly after connecting. I suggest you test a few settings... MOSTLY I use Garageband legacy 👉 podcasting 👉no effects then I export the MP3 .. (on occasion female narrator or female narrator noisy) Just test to see what settings work best for you on your app. Best of luck with the voice recording!
Thanks for the positive feedback 🙏 Yes, the copper washer comes with the mic stand. I believe there was also a plastic washer as well in the mic package. (Mic was separate purchase from the Røde kit). I included purchase links in the description section below the video.

Hi, could you tell me about the brass washer you are attaching between the shock mount and the boom arm please? What is it exactly? I suspect I need one because my shock mount doesn’t seem to sit on my current stand with the mic clip. Thanks!
Hi.. If I remember correctly, my mike stand came with 2 washers.. a plastic one and the brass one. The plastic one is the same size, but I just chose to use the brass one. You may want to watch my other video to show how I assembled the stand with the original clip and what came with it (then I removed the clip and attached the shock mount. You may just have to remove one of the washers and put another as I did. ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html Maybe a separate issue... but Røde NT Kit came a with little rubber "blue ring" and the instruction says "If your mic is loose when connected, insert the blue ring into the microphone plug.

My first mic too! :) I'm using M-Audio interface. It's an old model, which I got from a friend. There are some decent-priced new interfaces available online.
I think the prices will vary depending on the seller. And of course different sellers may offer different deals at different times. I suggest you Google it to see where you can get the best deal. Whether locally or online. Best of luck with the search.
@@galaxistarofficial Prices will definitely vary out there, but I think you will be very happy with your purchase. I love mine so much, and use it almost daily. Don't forget to cover the mic with the lil dust cover, when you are not using it. 😉
You could certainly try. It may be tricky with the cable connected to the mic though, so maybe if you prop up the shock mount on top of something, so that the cable will be uninhibited? Having it on a regular stand may prevent vibrations that may occur from having it on a flat surface. There are also boom arms that attach (clamp) directly onto your desk, so that may be an alternative. I prefer the mobility of the upright stand, as I use my mic in various areas of my home. It was well worth the 28 euros I spent on it on Amazon.
8:06 Did you notice the shock mount goes slightly downward? you'd think it's supposed to go straight sideways, but the bolt can't seem to go straight sideways as I expected?
I guess slightly. I assume because of the weight of it (good quality/metal 😉). But readjusting the shock mount, and tightening the bolt from time to time helps.
Hi.. thanks .. here's my long-winded answer since I'm not a pro 😉. The mic socket has pins. The end of the XLR cable with the holes connects to those pins. The end of the XLR cable with the 3 pins, connects directly into an Interface If you don't have an interface, I added an Amazon link in the video description section, which shows some options (I'm still using my old M-Audio interface in the video). Connect the USB part of the interface to your MacBook Air...using a "USB C hub" I believe it's called (my old MacBook Pro in the video has 2 USB connectors built in). Please let me if know if this helps and answered your question.
Hi... No.. I purchased the mic stand separately. (ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html) Last I checked it was not in stock, but, the store link is in description of the video, or you can just google "mic stand with boom arm".

@@epicrealm101 hey there .. so currently I only do videos on products that I've personally purchased and use. (I don't currently own or use a mountek mic).
Hello .. as far as I know, you need a computer, an interface (like my white M-Audio interface) and DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) like GarageBand, to use the Røde NT1 kit. I've included links for the NT1 kit and other accessories below my video to make it easier. Without computer, check this one below.

Please help regarding the yellow golden thing the washer that u put inside the shock mount & to the stand because i don't have that & my shock mount is not going inside the micstad I tried alot but it's not working 🙏 please help 😭
The copper washer came with my "Heldenklang" mic stand. Actually my mic stand also came with the plastic version of the copper washer (same size) but as the copper was sturdier, I used that. Just check to see if any of the washers attached to your mic stand or in the original box fit. If not, you can probably measure, (or take the shock mount with you well protected) to a hardware store. Maybe electronic store would have it too, not sure. Heres my mic stand video ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html The plastic washer (at 4:20 timestamp) in the video, should work if you have it. I measured mine... it is approx. 3/4 inch or 1.905 cm. Hope you find one that fits!🤞
Most mics come with this brass component or similar. It is a 5/8 inch to 3/8 inch adapter. These are standard sizes in the industry, and any music store will have them. Otherwise, look on eBay etc.
Sorry I went through the video once again... I have Audiophile grade speakers so when you shift from Camer Audio to the RODE Audio , it feels like a Genie has appeared in my room but then I heard the Outro Audio. The Intro and the Outro Audio needs a huge Boost .... get a better sounding/quality and some other track. Make sure that it sounds better or equivalent to your voice on RODE NT1. The Intro and the Outro Audio are the Hooks into the mind of the Audience. Apologies if I went too far... but I am known to be a harsh critic.
No need to apologize. But for me and my needs, it's not that serious LOL. I'm just thankful to have a good solid mic, that gives me good sound (compared to what my camera did before). I'm sure the sound would make a difference if the mic were in a more enclosed area... in a sound booth it would for sure, but I use mine all around my home, depending on where/what I am filming. So the acoustic will vary. And I am ok with that.
Hello Once again... Just curious to know how long does the RODE NT1 last for ? I am a bit new to the Microphone world. I have got a Wave 3 today and planning to get a RODE NT1 shortly. Will be doing a direct comparison between the two and keep one of them with me. My purpose is to record my voice only (I am not a singer) .. just wanna record some youtube tutorials and silly thoughts on my computer.
Hi.. let me start with.. I am no pro... just a regular mic user like you. Having said that... I've had and use my RØDE NT1 weekly, for the past 2+ years... mostly for my UA-cam Videos. I love it and I cover it with the protective bag whenever it's not being used. I keep it out of "harms way" so that, along with the fact that it is made will good quality metal, I anticipate it will last a long time. Assuming nothing goes wrong with the mic internally.
The mic stand with boom arm was purchased separately. The mic stand came with both a plastic and copper washer to attach the rode mic with shock mount. Hope that's what you mean. Here's the link for the mic stand unboxing video showing everything included. I also included an Amazon link for the mic stand in the description section of this video. ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.htmlsi=rOmO_2nUs6eE8hNo
Hi.. the price may vary depending where you buy it and the contents of the kit may also vary, so just double check what all is included in the kit currently available. I have included the links in the description box below the video for the Rode microphone kit and also a link for the separate mic stand. Click the link based on the flag for Europe or United States. Based on what they have now, the prices are good.
Where are you purchasing it from? I bought from a local retailer. Just make sure it is from a reputable seller. The metal structure of the mic and the accessories is nice and heavy, and they have the RØDE logo.
@@MocasWorld Thanks Mam Iam live In Mecca Saudi Arbiyaa And I ordered this stuff Amazon Online. Which will reach me soon ان شاءالله More Thanks for help me
What is the mic stand you are using? I don't have any yet, do you think I can record from the sitting position just by placing the mic onto the desk in front of me?
I have a Heldenklang mic stand with boom arm (Here's my video on that ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html). Might be tricky to have the shock mount lay flat on a desk with the XLR cable attached in the mic. Maybe you could prop up the shock mount with something to allow the cable to hang somehow... until you get a mic stand.
The link for the one I purchased through amazon.de (germany) is www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07Y1XLGN2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 See if they deliver to the US, but shipping may be more. Or Maybe search "Heldenklang microphone stand with boom arm" on Amazon.com to see what if it pops us. If no luck, search for "Microphone stand with boom arm" Some stands connect to a desk and some like mine are upright vertical stand. Good luck!
@@jmoxie4425 I'm not 💯 sure as I'm not a pro at these things.. but I assume it would work. I don't think it has to be "m audio" though. That's just an old one I had. I think any interface would work. If you can, ask at local tech store or if you buy off Amazon, you can "ask seller" before you purchase... just to be sure.
It came with my Heldenklang microphone stand. I think it had 2 washers... a plastic AND the copper one I used to attach the shock mount. (Heres my vid for mic stand ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html )
Can someone come explain to my why the pop filter is completely different and online it ways it was discontinued?. Was it discontinued and made its return?
@@MocasWorld that’s what I’m thinking because it’s not like this is fake or anything it’s still sold by the same company and still has the same mic the only difference is the pop filter maybe they switched it because this pop filter sounds more professional
I'm just using GarageBand on my mac. I suppose you can use any similar software. You'll just need an interface device to connect the mic to the computer, if you don't have one already. I'm using an old M-Audio interface as shown in the video.
It's an interface... Connects microphone with computer and GarageBand (or whatever you use to master your recordings) mine is an older M-AUDIO interface, but there are several brands available out there.
No... you have to get that separately. My M-Audio is an older model. You can google "audio interfaces" to see what is currently available. I believe Røde also sells their own interface.
I purchased my microphone stand (which came with the copper washer) from Amazon.de. to use with my RODE NT1 KIT. Here is the link for it amzn.to/3bBukzj You can also search online for other microphone stands.
@@_callme_han_6766 I imagine any hardware store/department might have it. Maybe just take a quick photo and also measure the opening beforehand, so you get the correct size. Unless you don't mind taking the mic with you. But if you have a mic stand, it should have come with a washer for connecting any mic. :)
The Heldenklang stand I bought on Amazon.de, is "not currently available" (I just checked). You can just search on Google or Amazon for "Boom Arm" or "Mic stand with Boom Arm" and see what might work best for your needs. Just note that, some boom arms attach only to a desk, and are not on a regular mic stand. www.amazon.de/-/en/Heldenklang-Microphone-Stand/dp/B07Y1XLGN2/ref=pd_rhf_se_p_img_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=BKCRDVBVJW3CGWWA370D
@@stevetrams4242 Take the washer that that you are using now to a hardware store and see if they have a copper washer that same size.

I just know that my copper washer works fine and I don't have the issue you're describing. If that doesn't work, you may have to contact Røde or directly. Let me know if my suggestion with the copper washer helps.
@@stevetrams4242 ahh ok. I misunderstood your first post then. Do you have the exact same round pop filter as I have in my video... My pop filter attaches to the shock mount with a wide black oval-shaped knob at the base of the pop filter. And then the top round part of the filter and the extendable adjustable rod part of it screws into the round receptor. None of those require a washer and if you tighten it it should stay firmly in place. If you still can't get it to work I suggest contacting the retailer directly for guidance. It may be defective or missing a part. Let me know the outcome pls, in case someone else contacts me with same issue.
What do you mean.... How do you purchase the copper washer? If that's your question, the copper washer came with the microphone stand, which I purchased separately.

You wasted a whole minute of your own time to complain now 🤦🏼♀ Have a wonderful day anyway!

@@epicrealm101 hey there .. so currently I only do videos on products that I've personally purchased and use. (I don't currently own or use a mountek mic).
@@MocasWorld oh
Can I use that recording without computer? Please give me advice because I like the brand.
Hello .. as far as I know, you need a computer, an interface (like my white M-Audio interface) and DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) like GarageBand, to use the Røde NT1 kit. I've included links for the NT1 kit and other accessories below my video to make it easier. Without computer, check this one below. I have not personally used the wireless one myself, but it popped up when I searched now and it's Røde Brand. Let me know if you get it and if it works.

great video
Thank you for your positive feedback!🙏
Please help regarding the yellow golden thing the washer that u put inside the shock mount & to the stand because i don't have that & my shock mount is not going inside the micstad I tried alot but it's not working 🙏 please help 😭
The copper washer came with my "Heldenklang" mic stand. Actually my mic stand also came with the plastic version of the copper washer (same size) but as the copper was sturdier, I used that. Just check to see if any of the washers attached to your mic stand or in the original box fit. If not, you can probably measure, (or take the shock mount with you well protected) to a hardware store. Maybe electronic store would have it too, not sure. Heres my mic stand video ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html The plastic washer (at 4:20 timestamp) in the video, should work if you have it. I measured mine... it is approx. 3/4 inch or 1.905 cm. Hope you find one that fits!🤞
Most mics come with this brass component or similar. It is a 5/8 inch to 3/8 inch adapter. These are standard sizes in the industry, and any music store will have them. Otherwise, look on eBay etc.
Could you give me the measurements of the box, thanks
In inches 10.5 x 8 x 6.5 high
Sorry I went through the video once again... I have Audiophile grade speakers so when you shift from Camer Audio to the RODE Audio , it feels like a Genie has appeared in my room but then I heard the Outro Audio. The Intro and the Outro Audio needs a huge Boost .... get a better sounding/quality and some other track. Make sure that it sounds better or equivalent to your voice on RODE NT1. The Intro and the Outro Audio are the Hooks into the mind of the Audience.
Apologies if I went too far... but I am known to be a harsh critic.
No need to apologize. But for me and my needs, it's not that serious LOL. I'm just thankful to have a good solid mic, that gives me good sound (compared to what my camera did before). I'm sure the sound would make a difference if the mic were in a more enclosed area... in a sound booth it would for sure, but I use mine all around my home, depending on where/what I am filming. So the acoustic will vary. And I am ok with that.
hi
why do you use built in output and not have everything going through your interface?
what's the difference
Hi... I didn't have proper headphones to plug into the interface, so I had to use the built in output to hear the test recording.
Can we hear thru headphone & record internally at the same time?
Thanks. Mam. 👏
Hello Once again... Just curious to know how long does the RODE NT1 last for ? I am a bit new to the Microphone world. I have got a Wave 3 today and planning to get a RODE NT1 shortly. Will be doing a direct comparison between the two and keep one of them with me. My purpose is to record my voice only (I am not a singer) .. just wanna record some youtube tutorials and silly thoughts on my computer.
Hi.. let me start with.. I am no pro... just a regular mic user like you. Having said that... I've had and use my RØDE NT1 weekly, for the past 2+ years... mostly for my UA-cam Videos. I love it and I cover it with the protective bag whenever it's not being used. I keep it out of "harms way" so that, along with the fact that it is made will good quality metal, I anticipate it will last a long time. Assuming nothing goes wrong with the mic internally.
Lovely
Hello! Do you know if by chance an adapter for the microphone arm is included in the package? Or do you have to buy it separately?
The mic stand with boom arm was purchased separately. The mic stand came with both a plastic and copper washer to attach the rode mic with shock mount. Hope that's what you mean. Here's the link for the mic stand unboxing video showing everything included. I also included an Amazon link for the mic stand in the description section of this video. ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.htmlsi=rOmO_2nUs6eE8hNo
@@MocasWorld So in the box of the nt1 the mic adapter was not included
@@JacopoGianfreda Correct.. based on my kit that I purchased 3 years ago. That's not to say that more recent kits won't include it.
Please how much is it
And where can I buy it
Hi.. the price may vary depending where you buy it and the contents of the kit may also vary, so just double check what all is included in the kit currently available. I have included the links in the description box below the video for the Rode microphone kit and also a link for the separate mic stand. Click the link based on the flag for Europe or United States. Based on what they have now, the prices are good.
What’s that little thing you used to put with your mic into the stand
Do you mean the little copper washer? It was part of the mic stand package, that I bought separately.
@@MocasWorld you bought mic stand from Amazon?
@@MocasWorld I think I bought the same one
@@RJ1Official Yes
I didn’t get the washer inside it though ?
Is there a difference between real and fake?
How to tell if it is a real product? Please help me.
Where are you purchasing it from? I bought from a local retailer. Just make sure it is from a reputable seller. The metal structure of the mic and the accessories is nice and heavy, and they have the RØDE logo.
@@MocasWorld
Thanks Mam
Iam live In Mecca Saudi Arbiyaa
And I ordered this stuff Amazon Online. Which will reach me soon ان شاءالله
More Thanks for help me
Nice 👀👍🏿🔥🔥🔥
What is the mic stand you are using? I don't have any yet, do you think I can record from the sitting position just by placing the mic onto the desk in front of me?
I have a Heldenklang mic stand with boom arm (Here's my video on that ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html). Might be tricky to have the shock mount lay flat on a desk with the XLR cable attached in the mic. Maybe you could prop up the shock mount with something to allow the cable to hang somehow... until you get a mic stand.
Moca! I want that same mic stand - any idea if I can get it in the US?
The link for the one I purchased through amazon.de (germany) is www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07Y1XLGN2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
See if they deliver to the US, but shipping may be more. Or Maybe search "Heldenklang microphone stand with boom arm" on Amazon.com to see what if it pops us. If no luck, search for "Microphone stand with boom arm" Some stands connect to a desk and some like mine are upright vertical stand. Good luck!
Very good. Anyone got a link for a stand with a boom in the back? I need one that can hold a boom.
hey what audio interface are u using in this video i would like to buy it whats the name?
I'm using "M-Audio" interface. It's an old one. There are several interface models out there. I think any of them would be fine.
@@MocasWorld do u think the M audio would be good with the rode nt1a mic too? Sorry I'm just not very experienced with these things
@@jmoxie4425 I'm not 💯 sure as I'm not a pro at these things.. but I assume it would work. I don't think it has to be "m audio" though. That's just an old one I had. I think any interface would work. If you can, ask at local tech store or if you buy off Amazon, you can "ask seller" before you purchase... just to be sure.
@@moniquemclaughlin-bolin9870 ok thank you sm
helpful tank
mhm ok
bro wheres the washer come from i didnt get one of those
It came with my Heldenklang microphone stand. I think it had 2 washers... a plastic AND the copper one I used to attach the shock mount. (Heres my vid for mic stand ua-cam.com/video/Yobkn_JboRs/v-deo.html )
Can someone come explain to my why the pop filter is completely different and online it ways it was discontinued?. Was it discontinued and made its return?
Sorry.. no idea why. I imagine each "kit" may be available for a limited time and the kit contents may vary from time to time.
@@MocasWorld that’s what I’m thinking because it’s not like this is fake or anything it’s still sold by the same company and still has the same mic the only difference is the pop filter maybe they switched it because this pop filter sounds more professional
just got mine.....What software do you recommend to use with this device?
I'm just using GarageBand on my mac. I suppose you can use any similar software. You'll just need an interface device to connect the mic to the computer, if you don't have one already. I'm using an old M-Audio interface as shown in the video.
Audacity software is free and great for voice over applications.
its not connected to a speakers?
The mic is connected to mac laptop using the interface. No additional speakers are connected.
hello what is the white box connected to the microphone ?
It's an interface... Connects microphone with computer and GarageBand (or whatever you use to master your recordings) mine is an older M-AUDIO interface, but there are several brands available out there.
does it come with the M-Audio?
No... you have to get that separately. My M-Audio is an older model. You can google "audio interfaces" to see what is currently available. I believe Røde also sells their own interface.
What is a good stand for the rode nt1a?
I purchased my microphone stand (which came with the copper washer) from Amazon.de. to use with my RODE NT1 KIT. Here is the link for it amzn.to/3bBukzj You can also search online for other microphone stands.
Heyy does the washer come in the box
If you mean the copper washer... no... that came in the mic stand box (Heldenklang), which was purchased separately.
@@MocasWorld ok ty...also do u know where i can get such a washer
@@_callme_han_6766 I imagine any hardware store/department might have it. Maybe just take a quick photo and also measure the opening beforehand, so you get the correct size. Unless you don't mind taking the mic with you. But if you have a mic stand, it should have come with a washer for connecting any mic. :)
is there a link for the boom arm?
The Heldenklang stand I bought on Amazon.de, is "not currently available" (I just checked). You can just search on Google or Amazon for "Boom Arm" or "Mic stand with Boom Arm" and see what might work best for your needs. Just note that, some boom arms attach only to a desk, and are not on a regular mic stand. www.amazon.de/-/en/Heldenklang-Microphone-Stand/dp/B07Y1XLGN2/ref=pd_rhf_se_p_img_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=BKCRDVBVJW3CGWWA370D
Ok I’ve done the tighten up on the shock mount but it keeps coming off
I used a copper washer that came with my mic stand (purchased separately). That may make a difference if you can get one at a hardware store.
@@MocasWorld my mic stand didn't come with a washer so I can just get a copper washer from a hardware store and it will work?
@@stevetrams4242 Take the washer that that you are using now to a hardware store and see if they have a copper washer that same size. (Keep your receipt just in case it doesn't help and you want to return it) I can't guarantee anything ...I'm no pro😉.. I just know that my copper washer works fine and I don't have the issue you're describing. If that doesn't work, you may have to contact Røde or directly. Let me know if my suggestion with the copper washer helps.
@@MocasWorld I don't have a washer I need one and the issue I'm having is not the microphone it's the pop filter that won't tighten
@@stevetrams4242 ahh ok. I misunderstood your first post then. Do you have the exact same round pop filter as I have in my video... My pop filter attaches to the shock mount with a wide black oval-shaped knob at the base of the pop filter. And then the top round part of the filter and the extendable adjustable rod part of it screws into the round receptor. None of those require a washer and if you tighten it it should stay firmly in place. If you still can't get it to work I suggest contacting the retailer directly for guidance. It may be defective or missing a part. Let me know the outcome pls, in case someone else contacts me with same issue.
is it including with the microphone stand ?
No.. the microphone stand is separate (the 4 items included are listed)
@@MocasWorld thanks !
Ho do i get the “washer” out of the mic?
What do you mean.... How do you purchase the copper washer? If that's your question, the copper washer came with the microphone stand, which I purchased separately. I put the link for the mic stand and other accessories in the description section below the video. I'm told the mic stand is not currently available but you can check if it's back in stock.
@@MocasWorld thanks for your respond I have found it out 💯
where to buy the M AUDIO..?
I've included links for M-Audio on Amazon in the description section below the video. Just scroll down right below the Rode Mic and Microphone Stand links.
@@MocasWorld Thanks
What microphone stand did you buy for this one?
Hi.. I put the links for the NT1 kit, mic stand and M-audio interface, in the description section below the video. But here is the link for the microphone stand (which came with the copper washer) from Amazon.de. amzn.to/3bBukzj
And holy crap you need to treat your room
They’ve downgraded the pop filter and mount. That sucks…
That's unfortunate. We can only hope that in the future they'll decide to upgrade the kit.
@@MocasWorld they now offer it as a $79 offering in addition. lol
It’s still a great mic to get started with though…
@@adriancarey Yes... the mic is great and the most important thing. Love mine!
Mic looks nice but it sucks
It's unfortunate that you feel that way. I had mine for a while and it still produces clear, high quality recordings.
The new pop filter feels cheap and is ugly.
Is yours different from mine?
@@MocasWorld in some regions the kit comes with a metal popfilter edit shortened text
@@taktoliYT The structure of my pop filter is very sturdy metal, and the pantyhose-like mesh works very well.
@@MocasWorld the other one is full metal
Waste of time video. 6 minutes before you get to the point.
You're certainly entitled to your opinion. Some people (like myself) are novices when it comes to this mic and the parts... therefore I presented each piece. The video title says "Unboxing, Setup & Review" 🤷🏼♀️ And you could have certainly scrolled to the more detailed part of the video, or moved on to some other video. You wasted a whole minute of your own time to complain now 🤦🏼♀ Have a wonderful day anyway!
Love it! You are still alive?
❣️ my Røde NT1 KIT .. Still going strong every single day! 😉
Great review. Please can you give me the link to the mixer you use
