Thanks! I think you’re right it’s going to be quite the competitor. I really do like this little mic. I’m going to have to put it up against my Shure SM 7B and see what kind of quality difference I have. If that little $99 mic meets the quality of the $400 mic I’ll be surprised. 😁

In the UK we have gone back into a full lockdown so I can't access my office for the moment to bring a mic home, so I bought one of these mics to use at home for the moment and it sounds fantastic for its price range. The build quality is excellent too. A real gem of a find.

Love your enthusiasm and transparency with feelings concerning the mic, refreshing. I am curious about your setup with the MixPre. Can using the headphone jack as an input source ultimately cause damage to the microphone? I like the form factor and can totally appreciate the USB value, but my connection preference is XLR or 3.5mm connection as you did in this demonstration, but want to be sure it does not cause problems in the future. For what it's worth, it sounds fantastic!

Nice review Kevin. I got one of these for a one off voice over job. I wasnt totally impresssed once i plugged in the headphones. I seemed to hear every noise outside my room (not soundproofed) and even the taps on the keyboard. I'm no sound engineer but given the pattern is cartoid only, I thought it would be a tighter field. Would what I can hear from the headphones also record in the DAW (I'm using logic pro x). I'm sure there are settings to filter unwanted sounds out but I just needed simple. It's whole mystery world to me.I guess I'll have to give it a physical trial

What a wonderful tutorial! Extremely professional! Sir, I have a question. Is there any possibility that we can use Zoom H5n Pro to record the voice from this RØDE NT-USB Mini instead of using a PC? In other words, does Zoom H5n Pro has the input capability to accept USB microphones as well, just like Zoom H5n has the XLR-inputs capability for the XLR microphones? Please reply! The reason is that I feel upset when Windows 10 gives me nightmares setting up USB microphones.

I think before going after a new microphone, you can take steps to kill off that noise. Something as simple as sound blankets on the floor and walls around you will really really help kill off all the reverberation. Also, if you can mount the mic off the table and near your mouth, you’ll be able to drop the input volume of your microphone,Get less background noise, thank you won’t hear all those keyboard and mouse clicks. Try that and let me know how it works out.

As in bipolar pickup pattern (front and back)? If so, then no. If you mean to ask if it is usable for two people placed in front of it for a single mic recording, then yes; just be within a 90° spread in front of the mic for best results. However, this mic is incredibly quiet, which means your environment needs to be quieter than the self noise of the mic to have that truly low noise floor.

The microphone can be selected as a sound output source in your OS (I've tried on Windows and Ubuntu; likely also possible on Mac), and all the computer's audio will be fed through it.
