RØDE Complete Studio Kit with NT1 Studio Condenser Microphone & AI-1 Audio Interface for Music Production, Vocal Recording, Streaming and Podcasting

All I can say is, rated on value for money and quality, this microphone is superb. Well built and easy to use, the quality of the audio it captures is stunning. In addition, the Audio Interface is easy to use and precise.

After years of recording music with a blue yeti, I upgraded to the nt-usb, which is great for what it is but not really professional level. I then saw this and because of the way it comes bundled with everything you need and is very, very cheap for a studio quality microphone I decided to give it a shot. I expected the price to be indicative of its quality, but it’s not at all. This has far and away surpassed the expectations I had for it and is a great mic. Now I just need to save up for a Neumann…

I get asked all the time what I recommend as a Voiceover starter package - RODE is GREAT - such low self noise and a good quality sound on most voices. I actually use the NT1A and keep the NT1 as spare - contrary to popular belief the NT1A actually sounds better on some voices. The interface in this kit is "OK" but I prefer the Scarlett, so I sold it on eBay for a good price. I really only wanted the mic anyway and the price of this bundle at the time of purchase was fantastic. Oh yes, if you are a voiceover then you absolutely do need a properly treated recording area if you want to get a good quality sound - the mic is only half the solution.

It’s a good mic, doesn’t need much sound work to get a very nice sound. Using this professionally and happy with it so far.

Very high quality products!

If you're looking for a Mic and can afford it, just get it. Amazing sound and built to last. Such a difference from my Samson C03U. Point to note - if you're looking at using for voice over / YouTube stuff on a computer you might want to get a short XLR cable. The one in the box is 20ft - great they include it but it's a lot of cable to have bundled up if you don't need it.

The interface didn’t work and I have had nothing but trouble I had to send it back to Rode at my own cost and still haven’t heard anything from the very disappointed with terrible customer service.

Would suggest a second interface for a headset if audio really matters to you, running the mic and a DT880 through this interface for about a few years has been pretty great though.

Simplesmente o melhor kit custo e beneficio da Rode. Microfone sensacional, super limpo, sem ruido algum e com uma construção para durar a vida inteira. O amplificador e a interface são sensacionais, com excelentes dacs bem implementados no produto. Simplesmente o melhor kit para quem quer iniciar no ramo. Se não for o melhor, é um dos melhores microfones para a sua faixa de preço e vindo ainda com uma interface magnifica dessa, é outro nível. Rode é Rode. Aliás, vale lembrar que são 10 anos de garantia.

The mic and other stuff are high quality from the 1st sight. It's a pity that I put the mount up-side down at first, so couldn't use it properly for a few days. Just try with different set ups:) Recording wise, cannot say much but it's easy to use. One up point is that it can replace the headset for remote work, and you can hear others from the speaker (which will not be picked up by the mic), so as to free your head.

Ive been using this for a month now. Very satisfied with the purchase. Mic is really good. Very sensitive though, so you might want to take a sound shield with it. The Audio Interface is nice and cute. A little sturdy too. Go for it.

Il prodotto non delude le aspettative, avevo letto parecchie recensioni prima di acquistarlo e devo dire che confermo le opinioni positive condivise da altre persone. Tutti i componenti forniti nel kit Rode sono di altissima qualità, anche il cavo di collegamento molto lungo e in gomma morbida. Il preamplificatore AI 1 in dotazione è tutto in alluminio, molto pesante e robusto. Ottimo anche il funzionamento, senza alcun disturbo sulle uscite audio e con i led indicatori ben visibili. Unico difetto, a mio giudizio, il fatto che non si possa utilizzare l'uscita cuffia contemporaneamente alle uscite posteriori perché vengono escluse automaticamente se viene usata la presa frontale. La qualità audio del microfono non lascia spazio a interpretazioni, è assolutamente ineccepibile, almeno per questa fascia di prezzo. I toni alti sono ben composti e cristallini, ma mai invadenti o fastidiosi, nemmeno con le consonanti sibilanti. I bassi sono corposi, e rendono la registrazione della voce estremamente fedele. Il microfono è molto sensibile, quindi nelle registrazioni in studio vanno evitati tutti i rumori di fondo, anche quelli di minima intensità (ventole dei pc, ecc.) perché si sentirebbero sicuramente nella registrazione.

Después de comprarlo, solo puedo decir que es excelente. La calidad de audio es sensacional, la calidad de construcción es buena (aunque la montura es plástico) y tiene un aspecto muy bonito con su interfaz XLR-USB a juego. Respecto al sonido, es un sonido muy neutro sin ese brillo tan pronunciado que tiene la versión NT1-A. Al ser un micrófono de condensador, coge mucho ruido ambiental, aunque el suelo de ruido propio es básicamente nulo. Aún así, con bajar la sensibilidad y poner algunos filtros en OBS, se puede grabar sin ningún tipo de molestia. Inicialmente iba a comprar otra interfaz (Focusrite Scarlett solo, junto con este micrófono de forma independiente), pero la AI-1 cumple perfectamente, va a juego con el micro y ofrece básicamente las mismas características por un precio menor (en este bundle). Cómo nota aparte, he de decir que la salida de auriculares es también buena y puede sustituir a la salida de 3.5 de la placa base con un sonido más limpio y potente (en mi caso tengo unos Seinheisser HD 58x y una placa con un buen sonido, pero ni punto de comparación).
