RODE NT-USB+
Studio-grade USB-C condenser mic with RODE's Revolution Preamp, internal APHEX DSP and zero-latency monitoring - plug-and-play on computers and phones.
4.3 / 5
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Highly recommended
Strengths
- Rich, full vocal sound with strong presence - reviewers rate it above the Blue Yeti class
- Revolution Preamp delivers very low self-noise for a USB mic
- On-board APHEX DSP (compressor, noise gate, exciter) processes audio without taxing the computer
Watch outs
- No on-mic gain control or mute button - level changes happen in software
- A cardioid condenser picks up more room noise than a dynamic podcast mic in untreated spaces
- Costs more than most single-purpose USB mics
- Capsule Condenser (side-address), studio-grade
- Polar pattern Cardioid
- Frequency response 20Hz - 20kHz
- Resolution 24-bit / 48kHz analogue-to-digital conversion
