Today, I have the Røde NT1 5th Generation Mic in the Audio Hotline Studio! This new version of the NT1 has some awesome tricks up its sleeve! This is the first ever Large Diaphragm Studio Condenser microphone with DUAL CONNECT technology... Yes, the NT1 went hybrid with a USB AND XLR Output! This also features Rode Connect and Rode Central compatibility so you can adjust the ON-BOARD DSP it is capable of!!! I know, I know, this upgraded NT1 is feature packed! On top of the fact that it has amazing new features, it is also the world's quietest Large Diaphragm Studio Condenser mic with a 4dBA noise floor level... THAT IS SO QUIET!
There are a lot of very awesome things with this new NT1, but I also really love the fact that they kept it true to the previous generation. This sports the same capsule as the 4th generation NT1. I personally like this, because I know I enjoy the sound of the previous NT1. To disclaim, YES the 4th Generation and 5th generation do sound identical when plugged in as an XLR mic.
There is quite a bit to unpack in this review, but I do also want to let you know that I did a comparison....
The comparison includes:
RØDE NT1 5th Generation
RØDE NT1 4th Generation
RØDE NT1-A
Check out the testing and audio samples and see if this is right for you! Every person has different expectations of audio gear. If the features are what you need, and you like the sound, then it is right for you!
Thanks for watching the Audio Hotline! I'll see you Audio Nerds next time!

@usbrasilcafe Год назад

Your review, this review, was a great help. Only recently have I been reviewing USB XLR mics. And within the last week, I've brought in six mics for review, two off-brands and four new Rode mics. I've focused on comparative audio quality, my daily use general purpose wireless systems versus microphones more specific to human voice. I wanted to address those beginning in online recording activities; basic entry level mic-audio gear for phone and camera hardware. While I've been in electronics since junior high school, much of my analog and then digital activities have been more as a 'button pusher' and 'knob twister' than setup engineer. The structure of your review, your broad stroke entry comments followed by technical details, works well for me. You've done a great job of organizing and delivering your opinions, which I perceive as being backed by actual use as much as a true understanding of the technical side of audio. Just wanted to let you know that subscribing was an easy choice. You're helping a 'boomer tech' get up to speed. And it's appreciated.

@SteveEricJordan 10 дней назад

im right with you there, regarding the 10/10 rating. this is simply my favorite microphone. literally anyone could buy it for anything in a studio/home environment and achieve the best outcomes, simply by plug and play into a computer or even phone. kinda feels like the future if i'm thinking back 10 years. not even talking about it SOUNDING the best and most round for warm, male voice recording, to me personally. warm, but not boomy, ultra detailed and very present.

@milesian1 6 месяцев назад

I just got this mic. When it arrived I was in the middle of recording a podcast on a different XLR condenser at home, where I only had my noisy Donner M Jack mini interface. So instead of continuing on the other mic, or trying the NT1 on that noisy interface, I decided to try it out straight to my MacBook Air via USB-C. And since Rode Central wouldn't connect for me, I gave 32-bit float a try, recording to Adobe Audition. And I'm pretty damn impressed with the results. Soundwise, I don't think there's any discernible loss of quality over USB, and the 32-bit float saved me from having to use an interface, which let me stay at home instead of running over to my photo studio to record. I also really appreciate the shock mount, adjustable pop filter, and cables that come with the mic. It's a really solid package. And I should add: BEST KPT EVER!

@MrBowmanMakes Год назад

@uncle-english Год назад

Highly articulated, clear, comfortable... that's how I describe Rode Nt1. Same goes with this 5th Gen mic. It's very hard to say I could be in any way unsatisfied with my current NT1. Yet it's awesome to have USB connectivity and those DSP functions. What is more, it did perfectly well in the kitty purr test! What else could I ask for?

@sec21 Год назад

Sounds a lot closer to the NT1-A than the NT1 to my ears.

I was initially concerned when I first clicked on the samples. But I think it's just that the USB mode sounds very different compared to the XLR mode. XLR mode sounds more like the real deal NT1. That said, RODE, ya gotta make a 32 bit float Videomic GO 2.

@stanleyc.348 Год назад

@usoygur Год назад

Perfect for the mobile but its condenser mic you need treated room. Mic caracter little bright, if you dont have acoustic can be problem, i suggest small capsule mic like se electronics 8 or akg p170 but u need pre. Very difficult decision but definitely nt1 4th for naturel studio recording. The 5th futures amazing also, loved.

@tritonthelion Год назад

Idk why but to me the 5th gen sounds more like the nt1a.. Maybe its just me... Great video btw!

@purrpocalypse Год назад

I prefer the tone on the 4th gen, it's full but has that crispy sizzle on the high end that I love. The 5th gen sounds like a more neutral mic. Meanwhile the NT1A sounds *very* similar to the 5th, but with even more mids and clarity. Maybe the 5th gen is an updated NT1A? I feel that way! Can't go wrong with any of them, but the 4th gen is still my favorite! They're all excellent.

@iamtonisilvers Год назад

hey Man just wanna ask can you monitor it while using a sperate audio interface and then on nt1 usb mode ? that is my only concerns cause my daw would not let me use 2 usb interface at the same time

@meistudiony Год назад

The original ceramic NT1 was one of my first mics as well, unfortunately got stolen a few years ago :(. Also had an original NTK as well. It's still a bit bright, but the overall tonality is really nice. For not having to use an interface, this is pretty high up on the bad ass scale of simplicity. If you set the gain does it "remember" the setting next time you plug it in? USB sounds a touch brighter than XLR? hmm. Either way this one sounds smoother overall than the rest of them. Wheres the capsule clipping point? (or is it so ridic high that nothing short of a shuttle launch will matter) lol.

Does 32-bit float also work when using XLR? Any drop in quality, if so? Thanks for a great review.

That depends on an interface which USB connectivity itself gives, so it's only for USB, or for XLR only if your interface has 32 bit float. Not too many of them, though.

@GeorgeTheTech Год назад

Nice "Podcastage" style tests :) The white-noise polar pattern test is excellent, too. Hey Rode, that is an interesting choice to put the USB-C INSIDE the XLR, precluding the ability to connect both XLR and USB-C simultaneously. OK, almost no one will do this, but why do this? Also thinking the licensing on the Rycote Lyre shock mount pushed the price-point too high.

@enriquekahn9405 Год назад

I was kinda skeptical about this but it actually looks super good. Would have liked to see a demonstration with the USB going directly into a DAW for those of us who don't use Windows/Apple. Really, my only objection is the lack of direct monitoring but if it's as good as you say it'll probably be fine. EDIT: I also don't like the naming. I get that NT1 is kinda Rode's biggest thing but it's going to be somewhat confusing for a newbie if you have to specify that they need to get the 5th gen specifically and the older models won't plug straight into their PC/phone.

@felixftp9670 Год назад

So do you can connect the Rode nt1 to the Rode Ai 1 and monitoring this with zero latency with the dsp effects from rode nt1 as well?

@AudioHotline Год назад

To use DSP and Monitor the audio you would have to do this: 1. Rode NT1 used as USB mic, plugged into computer. 2. Rode AI-1 plugged into computer also. 3. Turn DSP on through rode connect or central. 4. Set NT1 usb connection as input device. 5. Use AI-1 as output device to monitor rode nt1 with DSP. This is what I did and there was very minimal latency, not even noticeable.

@savethefails Год назад

i havent seen anybody answer this yet...assuming that the USB input is the only way to get 32bit float and dsp?

@AudioHotline Год назад

32 bit through an analog XLR connection is entirely dependent on the interface/recorder you are using. You can’t get 32 bit float through XLR if the interface you are connected to is only capable of 24 bit (quite a few interfaces currently). The Motu M2 is capable of 32 bit, so is the new zoom uac-232, as well as a few Tascam, Mix-Pre, and Zoom recorders. If you were to hook up this mic to any of those 32 but float devices with an XLR cable, you could definitely get a 32 bit file. But yes on-board DSP is reliant on USB.

Hello I bought the rode NT1 5TH generation and the A-1 sound card and the NTH100 headphones. But I'm having trouble connecting it. in fact when I connect the microphone via USB, the microphone is displayed on the different applications such as unify, rode connecte and rode central. But, when the USB cable is connected to the AI sound card and I connect it to the desktop, the A1 sound card, I have the sound but the microphone is not recognized by the application or the computer. This is actually my biggest problem. I can say that the microphone works when I connect it to the XLR since I have feedback via the headset but the microphone is not recognized by the computer application either. I want to know how to use my microphone and my sound card on my Windows computer.

@AudioHotline Месяц назад

The AI-1 is an audio interface. So you would connect an XLR cable to from the NT1 to the AI-1. If you want to use the NT1 as a USB mic, you don’t need to use the AI-1, you would just connect the NT1 5th gen directly to the computer! If you do want to use the AI-1, you would go XLR cable from the NT1 to the AI-1 then USB cable (that plugs into the back) of the AI-1. At that However, the AI-1 won‘t show whatever devices are plugged into it on connect, in fact the AI-1 does not connect to Rode Connect or unify. It does work with Rode Central, but for firmware updates. It just simply gives you a connection between the mic and the computer to be able to record into a DAW.

On the nt1 the sound is a lot more complimentary for more voice types. the sound of the NT USB+ is a little too sculpted in my opinion. of course XLR capabilities for music applications is huge. a professional shock mount vs a hard mount on the NT USB+ if the singer accidentally touches the stand (or wants to rest their hands on the stand (I’ve personally seen this a lot). adjustable pop filter is huge, the NT USB pop filter is way too close to the mic and can’t be adjusted. basically the NT1 is better in every imaginable way when it comes to singing… and pretty much any use case.

@theglobalzrecordingproject Год назад

I can definitely see where you are coming from. To my years, in USB mode, the frequency transitions are more smooth across the spectrum and there is a touch more general clarity. XLR mode sounds more 'broad-casty' with a more distinct jump from mids to upper frequencies. That is what I am hearing. Not that either sounds bad, just depends on the sonic qualities you are looking for at any given time.

@@theglobalzrecordingproject I agree! A friend of mine owns the Audio Technica AT2020 usb and the sound of that mic it's so clear and good. It amazes me 🤣 We did an EP with that mic and it was so easy to mix the vocals. He ( my friend ) now owns the Neumann tlm103 and my God!! I have headaches trying to get a great sound out of it.

Rode NT1 5 or electro-Voice re320?

@AudioHotline Год назад

The Rode NT1 5G definitely has versatility on its side especially when it comes to dual output and 32 bit on its own… the RE320 needs an interface while the NT1 5G technically doesn’t. Personally these are the applications I would choose the RE320 over the Rode NT1 5G (*in my experience with the sources I record*): -Spoken word in a less than ideal recording environment. RE320 is going to reject the room quite a bit better than the NT1. -recording a kick drum, or any toms. -recording a guitar cab, especially for a more focused and aggressive sound.

Hmm is it just me or on USB connection has a little distortion or crackling on the voice...just ever so little if u hear very closely compared to xlr.... I do like what rode is doing...just wondering is it just me or someone else notices this... By the way amazing review glad I stopped here.

How do you figure? Your comment makes no sense

@AudioHotline Год назад

I really don’t want this to come off condescending. Usually I would let stuff like this slide, but there seems to be a serious misconception about sample rates and bit depth. If you are using DSP while recording you most likely aren’t going to process it later, therefore you don’t need a higher rate than 48kHz… even if you were going to process it later, 48khz captures more frequencies than the human ear can hear and 24 bit has more than enough dynamic range (144dB). Humans can hear 20hz- 20kHz… 44.1 kHz, captures that entire range without any aliasing or artifacts. DSP is meant for fast turn around or live streaming. In that situation no one needs higher than 24bit at 48khz. Even if you could record at a higher bit and sample rate, your audience wouldn’t be able to hear the difference. Those higher sample rates are purely meant for the editing process…. So why would you use DSP? Things like 192kHz are nice for time stretching so you don’t cause any aliasing/artifacts but the last thing you would want in the editing process is DSP already baked into a track. Maybe you are insinuating that 32 bit isn’t usable with DSP… 32 bit is meant for people that plan to edit their audio and change their levels in post in case they clipped… 32 bit is not a limiter, it doesn’t prevent you from clipping, but it gives you the option to save those clipped parts in post. it’s full potential can not be used in a live setting so it doesn’t make sense why you would want DSP compatibility with it. Bottom line, anyone who knows what they are doing that uses 32 bit 192 kHz is planning on editing the hell out of that track in post.
