Excellent product

I'm quite impressed! I bought it for my iPad gig (Cubasis etc.), which I tend to use in different rooms, and in the future I plan to take with me during holidays. I have a small plastic box for all the iPad accessories: cables, headphones, dongle, USB hub etc. Because of its dimensions and shape, this mic nicely fits into it! As for the sound, I own the NT1-A, and to my ears they sound very similar. Some online reviews say they're not the same, which is understandable, because they're differently shaped mics. There are sacrifices made in order to produce such a small mic. But I'd say you probably want to sacrifice the same response curve for the small footprint and mobility. Additionally, I use it mainly to create new ideas, not the final versions of songs. It's more than perfect for this use. The mic feels very robust and is heavy. When I plugged it into my iPad, its gain was just right from the start, and I never felt a need to tweak it. The experience is totally plug and play. It plays really well channel strip of Cubasis: the default noise gate and compressor settings. It connects to my iPad Pro (2017) via 1. powered Atolla USB hub and 2. lightning to USB camera adapter. To Rode: there is a huge market behind the iOS musicians community. I think this is a perfect mike for "on the go", but until I actually tried it, I had doubts. I think you should market it as such, make more "on the go" videos, show how to use it with an iPad, how to pack it to backpack and carry around.. Your potential buyers are really looking for this type of information.

I'm a local radio station DJ and was recommended this mic...sounds great.. however I was having initial issues but sussed it after a while... Use with laptop always plugged in.. because as soon as theres less than about 50% battery the mic goes off... I thought it was because the power lead seems to be a bad fit... however I've not tried a different lead yet as I worked out the problem ... try different usb ports too as some have different power strengths....I've ended up using a usb to type c adapter and I use mine through the c phone charger port with no issues now I've sussed why it kept switch off ....also after a laptop update on chrome it needs the settings sorting again... Probably the laptop fault though and not the mic... It sounds great for broadcasting.. very sound sensitive.. picked up my neighbour downstairs tapping something. doesn't sound spitty or lispy when speaking or anything.. I use at about 10 inches away from face ...fab

Compact, high quality condenser mic, maybe not quite to Rode NT standard but pretty good. Great little heavy stand on base, with magnetic grab. Or pull out plug from threaded insert and mount on your own stand or arm. Plug and play, no driver to load. Appears to use same driver as my Rode NT. Built in pop filter. It simply feels superior quality, lovely matt black, and metal construction so it is reassuringly heavy. I am very pleased with it, and will now chuck my cheaper mic in the bin where it belongs.

Mic is amazing, i just had to buy an adapter for my phone to power it up

I have been recording with condenser mics for a good few years now. I've always swayed towards RODE as I like the brand. I wanted something versatile and easy to use with my ipad as well as laptop, this is perfect! I did have to buy the Lighting to camera adapter from amazon but that's not a problem. Sound quality wise, I highly recommend as it's great. It has a very sensitive pickup so in a non treated room this will pick up everything. The built in pop shield hides plosives so well. The only downside to this mic is the dial controls the monitoring, where it should have maybe controlled the input. I like to use the monitoring from the software anyways however if I use the output on the mic I can hear both at the same time and its trippy. I don't consider myself a tech or recording expert at all. However I do like to record vocals. So if you're like me and things are simple - good sound, easy to use - then this is the mic for you. Ps it also looks awesome!

Not sure if anyone else found a better software, but I'm stuck using rode connect which for a £100 Mic is a terrible piece of software. The software doesn't have a program to stop echo, so can't really talk in game chat. Build quality is superb, love the all metal design and how compact it is, feels very premium.

Exceptional mic.

bon produit, bon service

Toppen och fyller sin funktion otroligt bra

MIkrofony przyszły meg szybko i w super cenie. Zostały podpite do aplikacji i można było szybko i sprawnie nagrać podcast. Mam problme jeszcze z ich ustawieniem na 100% ale to berdziej kwestia miejsca niż samych mikrofonów. Szkoda, że nie mają filtra odcięcia pasma ale rozumiem, że od tego jest model NT USB + a nie mini :) Do podcastów dla gości super sprawa polecam

Ich nutze das RØDE NT-USB Mini jetzt seit etwa einem Monat hauptsächlich für Videocalls und Discord am Laptop mit Windows 11 und bin sehr zufrieden. Die Sprachqualität ist hervorragend. Von meinen Gesprächspartnern bekomme ich durchweg positives Feedback, da meine Stimme klar und deutlich übertragen wird. Auch die Lautstärke und Aufnahmequalität überzeugen im Alltag. Die Einrichtung war problemlos und funktioniert direkt per USB. Die zusätzliche Software von RØDE bietet viele Möglichkeiten, wirkt anfangs aber etwas überladen. Für die normale Nutzung ist sie allerdings nicht zwingend erforderlich. Das kompakte Design gefällt mir sehr gut. Ich habe das Mikrofon an einem Mikrofonarm montiert, wodurch es wenig Platz auf dem Schreibtisch benötigt und flexibel positioniert werden kann. Insgesamt ein sehr hochwertiges USB-Mikrofon mit exzellenter Sprachqualität und einfacher Bedienung. Eine klare Empfehlung für Discord, Videocalls, Streaming oder andere Sprachaufnahmen. Von mir gibt es 5 Sterne.
