This mic is a superb all-rounder, with warm mid range, smooth low end, and crispy detailed high frequency response that remains balanced with minimal vibration thanks to the included shock-mount and pop filter.

The NT1 is also great with home computer recording setups and is an excellent choice for podcasters looking for a crisp, clear recording.

A first for Rode, the AI-1 USB Audio Interface provides you with studio-quality input and output capabilities to your home studio setup. Featuring a high-quality Neutrik combo jack input, discrete Class-A preamp, and a high-quality headphone preamp, the AI-1 sound card can connect either a mic, guitar or line level instrument to your DAW with an audio quality that perfectly matches the NT1 mic.

The NT1 and AI-1 kit is everything you need for a quality recording setup at a great budget.
