Default Decent cheap mic for vocal studio use


"Don Pearce Congenital LIAR"

The capsule of the NT1-A (unlike that of the NT1) is entirely
Australian made.



** Oh really ??????

And you know that how ?????


As for vocals - well you would not use it for stage
work with your mouth buried in it, but from six inches away behind a
pop shield (as you would use it in a studio), it is an exceedingly
good vocal mic.



** So it is a fragile, studio condenser mic - with all that implies.

And all if it unknown to the OP.


** I am particularly familiar with that mic and know
personally the folk who make it - ie the Freedmans
of Sydney, Australia.


How the company started out is a matter of neither interest nor
importance.



** That is a WRONG opinion you get to keep.


What matters is right now they are manufacturing the state
of the art.



** Yawnnnnnnnnn...

There is lot more "fart" than "art" in any Rode mic.

I've been told by a source I believe rather more than I do you.

That's right. What do you imagine vocalists use in studios? Have you
ever been in a studio? Have you even seen a picture? Vocalists use
(99% of the time) a large diaphragm condensor coupled with a pop
filter.

personally the folk who make it - ie the Freedmans
of Sydney, Australia.

Thank you for your kind permission.

** Fraid you have been listening to the pixies then - ****wit.

Lying pommy pixies living inside your pointy head.

That's right.



** Fraid you have no idea just how much it implies with mics like the
Rodent.

All that implies is you take reasonable care with it. Like you should do
with any precision equipment.
