Excellent mic

by Richie from Palmyra, PA

Music Background: active musician/ recording guitarist/ home studio
Nice, full sounding mic and well built. I've used it for acoustic guitars and in front of a guitar cab for some hard rocking guitar tracks so far. It allows me to record higher quality tracks than som... read more [+]e other mics I've tried and at an affordable price. I expected it to be good, but it gives me more expensive sounding results than I expected. I will definitely buy more Rode mics in the future and I'll happily recommend this mic in particular. It's impressive. close [-]

i have two AKG c1000's and they do an admirable job as over-heads. I "was" happy with them. Boy am I glad I've made the switch these Rode microphones. "...the NT1000 has been hailed by many as the ... read more [+]ultimate drum over-head and grand piano mic selection." That's from Rode's website. I'm floored!!! My drums sound like they have been recorded in Hollywood, really. The NT1000's captures my kit very accurately and the drums are breathing ;] If you are looking for great over-head mics look no further. close [-]
