Popular condenser mic with shock mount, integrated pop filter, 20' XLR cable, dust cover, and instructional DVD.
To celebrate 15 years of the RØDE NT1 and NT1-A, RØDE Microphones has created a revised NT1-A package including a premium shock mount, pop filter, cable, microphone dust cover, and a bonus instructional DVD.
Originally released in 1995, the RØDE NT1 mic is found in professional and project studios the world over. Its combination of clarity, warmth, extended dynamic range and high SPL capability made it an instant classic with professional engineers and home recording artists alike.
Following heavy investment in precision manufacturing, RØDE revised the microphone capsule and electronic design of the NT1, resulting in only 5dB SPL (A-weighted per IEC651) of self noise. Released in 2003 as the NT1-A, it has since become one of the world's biggest selling and most recognizable condenser microphones.
Now RØDE has truly made the NT1-A the complete recording solution by including a premium shock mount with integrated pop filter, high-quality 6m (20') XLR cable, microphone dust cover and even a bonus instructional DVD. Presented by RØDE founder and company president, Peter Freedman, The NT1-A Studio Secrets DVD features a range of tips and techniques to help RØDE NT1-A owners get the most from their new microphone.

- Large 1" (25mm) capsule with gold plated diaphragm

Simply can't be beat in this price range. It's a good mic, and not just "for the money" either.
My college had a couple sets of these and I liked their smooth sound so much I bought two. I use them predominatnly to record orchestral and/or choral music in a church, meaning that low self-noise (they test at about 6dB, which is waaaay low) is a huge plus -- no hissssssss in the quiet parts. The included shockmount in the package is a huge plus, too, although the pop filter assembly is a bit cheesy if I'm honest -- with the filter plus mic, it gets quite heavy for the little hinge that moutns to the mic stand, so you either have to crank down on the wingnut or accept that it will droop.
Rode build quality is very impressive. The nickel will probably show scratches easily...
The best thing about this mic is that for the price you're getting a fantastically quiet large-diaphragm condenser that blows any others at this price range out of the water. It's not a flat frequency response, though, as it's got a bit of a bright personality with a boost at and above 2khz.

inferior to cheaper alternatives
Compared this to Behringer B-2 Pro, true - NT1a is less noisy, but is inferior otherwise, fewer features(none), frequencies are just dull and muffed sounding.

Comments about Rode Microphones NT1-A Condenser Mic Bundle:
I got this mic last Christmas, and have since recorded an EP and a bunch of demos with it. It's obviously not the best mic for every application, but for someone on a tight budget you can definitely use this worry free on most sources.
Buy it, you won't regret it.

Comments about Rode Microphones NT1-A Condenser Mic Bundle:
I just bought this micropphone yesterday, and today is the first day i have plugged it in! I have been looking for a solution for recording guitar. I use 2 SM57(s) on the horn and pan them both left and right for a full mid sound. By doing this, i realized that i was missing bright clearity on top. I added this mic to float between the 2 SM57(s). This microphone did not only catch the high end, it gave me a very nice warm low sound. I have only used this microphone once, however, i enjoyed it so much i had to right a review about it!
A must have for a home studio!

I fall in love with this mic. Really simple to use, awesome response, a must in any home studio.
Out of the box, I recorded vocals for 2 songs of my demo album, in about an hour.
The Bundle is awesome high quality... wanna know how awesome is this mic...it comes with a 10 years warranty.
Comments about Rode Microphones NT1-A Condenser Mic Bundle:
Like I said JUST BUY IT.
This is my 4th NT1 I have purchased. We use them mainly for choral group recordings and they work fantastic in that role. Highly recommend them!
I own a lot of Rode mics and their customer service is second to none!
No better value out there. Just buy it!

The bundle provides everything you'd need to mount the mic to a mic stand. My voice is deep, and while people like the sound of my voice live, my voice sounds awful when recorded. After using several vocal mics, I decided to try a condenser mic.
After researching and reading user reviews, I decided on the Rode NT-1A. It's very sensitive so you don't have to get on top of the mic to be heard. The wind screen and shock mount provided with the bundle keep me from getting too close to the mic, and eliminated any "p" popping. I'm very happy with the results. Now my voice sounds more natural and clear on recordings. With other mics, it always sounded like my voice was muffled. The bundle also comes with a good mic cable and DVD with some tips on mic placement, etc. I would recommend this mic especially with the bundle.

Comments about Rode Microphones NT1-A Condenser Mic Bundle:
I just purchased this mic and hooked it up to my GA Pre-73 pre amp and it takes phantom power. I will be using it for vocals only.My voice is mid-rangy so I use a SM-57 instead of the 58 that most people use. This NT1A is very loud and it took a while to calm it down. The eq is flat on my board with just a little bass. With other mics it would be boomy but this Rode is really lush and warm. I was very surprised. It is a very bright mic but you can get any sound you want if you are patient and precise with the eq. Just a touch will make a difference.Everybody says how sensitive it is but I was not expecting it to be this sensitive. It is really a beautiful sounding instrument.When you screw it into the shock-mount ( included ) it ends up facing the side so you have to loosen it a half turn so it will face the front ( a small engineering flaw). For my voice, at least, I couldn't have got a better sounding mic at any price. It's perfect for my vocal range and I love the richness it adds to the overall tone. Perfect.
