Johnbee58 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I ordered a Rode NT1A and it should get here in a few days. Should I have ordered an NT1 instead? I know there are several people here who use Rode mics. My Avantone CV 12 that I've been using since 2015 doesn't seem to give me what I want and I'm thinking of selling it. I have an old (cheap) Apex condenser that I recently dug up that sounds better and I'm hoping the Rode will finally be the mic that "loves my voice". ?John B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Carpenter Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Hi John, I have 4 rode mics. Original NT2 from 1997. An NT2a, and now the NT55 pencil condensers. Love them all, highly recommend any Rode, great Aussie company, and the chap that owns Rode has been around music all his life, and his Dad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Dickens Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I like my NT1A. I have gotten one of the best Doumbek sounds out of it I have ever heard. No kidding. Most of what I've heard sounds like someone slapping a cardboard box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnbee58 Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 Thanks for the feedback, guys. I'm sending the Rode back because it's no better than the Apex 435 I already have. I thought I'd try it mostly because Sweetwater ironically allows a 30 day refund on mics. I find that odd, especially given the current situation, but they do. ?
