Watched 20+ vids on how to use this mic to no avail. This dude explains the nobs and app simple.
Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate your comment.
HeyGary, it’s so nice to see a presenter from Australia who is speaking on this topic thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is what I call the best review ever! You have really made it amazing, especially when you connected the line-out with your camera. Splendid! Thanks a lot.
Your voice is sooo calming. Thank-you from NZ!
+I Don't Know Gaming Hi! New Zealand. Thanks for the compliment. I speak a little slow for the fast pace in the United States. I appreciate your support.
Hey Gary. After doing a lot of research on the best entry level mic I decided on Rode and I just got mine delivered. I was lucky enough to grab it as a boxing day special for only $120 so I'm well pleased. I'm impressed with the quality & overall packaging etc too. I wanted to make sure I was doing the right things with it so I popped online to see if anyone explained how to set it up to record on a laptop and found you after watching a couple of others that weren't explaining much beyond the obvious. Your video was terrific and covered everything I needed to know. Originally I only wanted to know about connecting to the computer and recording and thought I knew how to set it up physically but you gave me some useful pointers I was unaware of. Thank you so much! I'm heading off now to do a test run :D PS the tip about moisture was VERY important as I live in Tasmania and have a massive condensation issue in my home. I had no idea the crystal packet was for the mic pouch! I would have just left it in the box. Crucial info for me also so I know not to leave the mic/set up the studio in either of the two worst damp effected rooms.
+Lucinda I am so pleased the video was of help to you. I'm sure you will enjoy using the mic. I appreciate the time you have taken out to let me know in your comments. My wife and I spent some time in Tassie in May this year 2016 and loved it. Looking forward to exploring the north east of the state in the near future.
Oh!!! That's exactly where I am - North East Tassie. You will drive right past my house coz I live on the main highway so hey!! Feel free to drop in for coffee. :D
+Lucinda Cool, it's a lovely state to live in. Thanks for commenting.
Thanks for this video. It really helps the rank newbie like me to get basic setup done right. Too many of this type of tutorial videos out there assume a basic knowledge of how to set up audio equipment, leaving those just entering this exciting world discouraged and doing things wrong from the get-go. Thanks, Gary, these Rode UT-NSB vids and keep them coming -- especially with a focus on the newbies out here!
Really glad the video was helpful. We are always learning. 👍
Using this for couple of months and like it a lot. This video was a big help in making the decision to get the NT-USB.
+賴志偉 Really good to hear. I'm glad it has worked well for you. Also thanks for letting me know. I appreciate the feedback.
Best review I`ve seen on this mic......Thank you Gary
Thanks Malcolm, I appreciate the feedback. Rode has a good playlist of videos on this mic too if you haven't spotted it already.
Lol. This was actually really helpful. I had no idea what the knobs on the side did. Thanks!
Awesome. Glad the video was helpful to you.
Dude! Thank you so much! I didn't realise the gold dot indicated the front of the mix- the audio had become terrible quality and I thought I had damaged it- I would've never known!
HaHa, yes crazy hey. Looks the same on the front and the back.
Finally! FINALLY a good video 😩😩😩
I was about to give up on this mic and send it back as it sounded awful and noisy, glad I saw your video sounds so much better now!
Great to hear Sonia, I’m glad the video was helpful.
A refreshing no-nonsense review, simple, easy and clever - I liked the idea channeling the mic output through the camera to the monitoring headphones.
Thanks Andreas for you comment.
Thanks for that helpful info ! Is a pretty good mic for a usb hookup ! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Sir you are a savior, I was actually recording from BEHIND the microphone and wondering why the audio was rubbish lol
Thanks a lot for this Gary. I just bought a Rode USB and following your setup process was super helpful. Cheers
Very helpful, thanks. I just received the Rode NT today from Amazon, and I was struggling. This explanation makes everything much easier.
This channel deserves 1m subscribers
Thanks T Rex, that’s kind of you. I appreciate the feedback.
I just wanted to say thank you for this brilliant clip.
I appreciate the feedback. Thanks Felix.
Good. Exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks.
Increíble, gracias por la explicación
Really very Helpful. Thank you for sharing 😊
I really appreciate the feedback Rajesh. Thanks.
Thankyou 🤣🤣🤣 i was so angry that mine came in a different way, the mic wouldnt stand up at all!!!! i was so angry! and finally i've found a video which shows me HOW to set it up. :)
mine isnt standing up right now and i cant figure out why..? could you kindly help me?
so to anyone whos having this problem, i figured it out.. as stupid as it might seem, put the thumb screw in from the other side, not the left, but the right.. lol *facepalm*
haha! i will try that if i have any issues@@redsnow4826
Just got one to use, learn and practise and progress voice-over type work, thank you very much for your clear instructions with the dials and built-in mic gain - your video really helped!
Thanks Mike, I appreciate your feedback.
thank you!!
No problem at all Lucie. I’m very happy that the video helped you out. Stay safe.
I have read many reviews on the ring breaking. I haven't experiences it yet. The Microphone is very top heavy. I dropped it two times while trying to set it up. I am using Microsoft. So your video only helps me half way.
I’m glad to hear the video was of some help. This video from Rode is a tutorial to setup on Windows czcams.com/video/o3arfN-mVQU/video.html
thank you so much i just started making music this helps a lot
Aiden, So glad to hear the video was helpful.
Thanks for the great tutorial. I don't have a clue what kind of other videos you have, but I subscribed to your channel just on the fact of how genuine and nice you seem, and overall just how great this video was. Thanks again, and I will definitely look more into your channel when I get a chance!
+Mark Himley Thanks for the support. I hope you find some other content of interest.
Hi Gary. This is the most helpful and interesting video I've found for this microphone. Thank you for running us through it.
Thanks for your feedback Matthew, I appreciate you letting me know.
Thank you! Very clear and simple tutorial. That is exactly what I need!
Wonderful to hear Dominika, I’m glad the video was helpful.
thanks for this - so much good info there. I didnt know how the controls worked!
I appreciate the feedback Marcos. Thanks.
I love how you described so everyone can understand! Make more videos :)
I appreciate your comments, thanks. I'm really happy the video was helpful.
Thank you so much for that! I was scared of latency problems but seems there is no such issue or it’s not a big problem
Looks cool Gary!
Thanks +Chris Winter Took me ages to get set up again. You know what it's like.
Oh yeah, absolutely hear you!
Keep it up though!
Thanks Chris
This is wholesome af
Very good explanation, thanks.

A very educated review. Thanks. Love from Bangladesh
Thanks Asara , I appreciate it.
great vid Gary - good too see another aussie on youtube :) just got this mic today
Good to hear John, yes Australia only has a small number of CZcams influences compared to the States. I really hope you enjoy working with the mic. Be good to hear your comments about it after you have used it for a while.
Great tips! Thanks a lot Gary!
Thanks for the feedback, I'm happy the video was helpful to you Kennis Kids.
@@GaryDmedia I recently bought a Rode NT-USB and this video helped me out. Thanks again :)!

Best review - Thanks!
Thanks Caroline, I appreciate you letting me know.
Omg this is a really good tutorial I really want to get this microphone
Thanks for your comment. The mic is good value from what I can tell.
Great video
Thanks for letting me know. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Great! I've been waiting for a vid like this
That's good to hear. Thanks for letting me know.
Gary Davies You don’t need to get a specific boom stick right?
P.S thank you for replying
No you don't. The adapter that comes with the NT-USB fits both boom thread sizes.
Thanks
I love this video thanks for everything its amaaaazing
That’s good to hear, I’m glad the video was helpful.
Thank you for solving my distortion problem!
That's great to hear Logan. I appreciate you letting me know.
Thanks man for making this video
I appreciate your feedback. Thanks.
Hey can you please make a video on how to connect usb microphone to android
That would be a difficult video to make because it’s not so much the Android Operating system that is the problem it is the hardware it is running on. For example each phone manufacturer deals with external digital devices differently. Even among Samsung phones, one model works with external USB mics and another not. Explore some of the other comments as some have had success connecting to an android device.
Thanks for your reply btw i have vivo v3 maz
What an excellent video. Subbed
Glad you liked it. I appreciate the feedback.
GREAT CHANNEL!
Thanks so much for your feedback.
Thanks for your guide, turns out i had the microphone back to front.
That will make a difference. So glad the video was helpful.
thanks
Thanks Gary!! Really helpful.
Good to hear the video was helpful. Thanks for your feedback.
love it!
Nice mic, but they could have designed the swivel thing to be thicker. Mine broke/cracked when the mic toppled.
Simple✌💥
Thanks for letting me know. I appreciate it.
Is it working with iPhone 7 for Smule app?? Pls reply sir.
Thanks for that review Gary. I currently use the AVID Mic, which comes with an abbreviated version of Pro-Tools. I edit on AVID and narrate most of my own work.
Can you tell me how this might compare? Sounded really good on your video.
Thanks!
I would have thought for the price it would have come with a mic gain. The Blue Yeti is slightly cheaper and also comes with a mic gain ?
Yes physical knobs for mic gain are convenient. Good suggestion, and a mute button would be a handy edition.
Thanks for your comment AustinPetDetective.
Good explanation
+Jin Snow (Jin mizushima) Thanks for that, I appreciate the feedback.
Niiice, big thanks
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback.
Trying to connect this to my TASCAM Mixcaster 4. Help would be appreciated.
J, I'm am sorry to say that the Rode NT-USB will not connect to the Tascam Mixcast 4.
I still hear the noise what software should I install for different options ? Thank you
+Lois Lois Just wondering what noise you are hearing? And what recording device are you using, PC, Mac or iPhone/ iPad?
Gary Davies - AudioTTR I hear the sound of working computer but in reality it's not so noisy( and The mic also recs the voice from another room, I'm so unhappy with this!( (sitting straight to wall but as this model is a cardioid it should't catch a sound on a back side). Using Windows 7
+Lois Lois I understand now, thanks. In a perfect world for cardioid microphones there would be no walls that reflect sound around the room. Sadly in our studios or living rooms there are a lot of reflective surfaces that bounce the sounds around into the front of the mic. This is why many people hang up soft materials like blankets or specially made panels to soak up these reflected noises. I have even opened up my cloths cupboard and faced the mic into it so no reflections of sound go into the front of the mic. Another way to reduce these unwanted room sounds is to talk/sing close to the mic (75mm/ 3in) away from the mic and turn down the sensitivity in the software program. Be sure to use the pop filter so there is no breath noise. Hope these tips help.
Gary Davies - AudioTTR which easy soft could you advice for that purpose? It'/s more preferable way out for me because I live with parents and they get mad if I put smth on walls :D and the room where I'm planning to stream is almost empty with an echo. Tried to use some noise deleting filters in OBS - it sounds weird is if I was under the water ( When it's low recording level it's okey but me too sounds very quietly. Thank you for the fast answer, have a nice day! Regards
+Gary Davies - AudioTTR I have used both the iPad and a PC. Both seem to work well. You just have to get used to adjusting the settings. Generally if you can hear other sounds in the room the mic will pick it up. Many CZcamsrs record their videos late at night when the house is quiet and little traffic noise outside.
thanksss :)
Really glad the video was helpful.
I understand I don't need soundcard with this? I've have hard time to record with this wit hp laptop. It is barely recording and sound is cutting.
No with this setup you don’t need a sound card. The NT-USB should plug straight into the USB and work as an audio interface.
If you break the mount on these .. I have made a replacement @
Well done Garret, there has got to be a lot if generic replacements. Thanks for the tip.
Hello thanks for the tip! One question, overall it works fine but there is some glitch and little bit always gets cut off. Any way to solve the problem?
Please tell me how to solve the problem. I use GarageBand for real-time broadcasts by a third-party application. It amplifies the usb mic, but the effects are only sent to the microphone's earbuds and do not reach the desired application. How can you transfer effects to both headphones and app?
No sure how I can help sorry. I haven’t setup with blending effects.
@@GaryDmedia Understood, thanks for the answer
Hey Gary, does the mix control determine what is being recorded, or does it only determine what you hear in the headphone? Specifically, will the music get mixed into the recorded track? I'm asking this because I want the vocals on a track separate from the background music. Thanks in advance, I find your video very informative and I'm getting this mic.
+賴志偉 Thanks for asking. Glad you enjoyed the video. No the control has no effect on what is recorded. It just mixes the two together for the headphones. The mic will be totally recoded separately.
That's just what I want. Order sent. Thank you for the fast reply. Very kind of you! ;-)
just given that you're aussie - thumbs up
Guilty as charged :)
Sir. I have samsung A70 mobile.. can i contact this microphone with my mobile & do the recoding?
Not that I am aware of. It would be good to google if any have had success.
Hello kind sir, I bought the microphone just a few days ago and I started recording the same day. The microphone does pick noise when I am typing on keyboard or when my mom calls me from two rooms away. Microphone is very sensitive and is there any way I can decrease that sensitivity? Thanks in advance!
Yes, the mic is sensitive. Reduce the volume/ gain in the record settings on the computer and move the mic closer to your mouth. You can be fairly close with the supplied windscreen.
+Simple Audio Tips in many apps there are no possibility to change gain level.....so, as I understand, I can't use my mic :-( ...????
+Bartmuz virtual band for example acapella app .....i try to record in it...steel to loud volume....overdrive effect
Bartmuz virtual band Can you tell me what device you are recording on- PC, Apple Mac, Ipad, iPhone? And which app are you using to record with.
+Simple Audio Tips Yes of course: Ipad Air 2 / Acapella app
Hello Sir,
Can I record audio in it by using my mobile (Samsung Note 20ultra)?
Nicolas, Some have found audio interface cables that work with android mobiles but in general the simple answer is no. Sorry about that.
the side control "buttons" are not working. When i turn the lower one my audio volume doesn't change even a bit.
Should we need sound card for singing?
Not not if you use the NT-USB.
When I plugged my RODE mic into my laptop, I was not able to hear the sound tracks I had saved on PowerPoint. What needs to be done to correct the issue?
The first thing I would do is check adjust the volume controls on the Rode NT-USB to 12 o’clock then go into the audio settings on your computer to make sure the audio from the program you are using is active.
@@GaryDmedia thank you. I will do so.
The iPadPro third-generation model cannot monitor my voice while monitoring other tracks of music. I mean, you can't hear other tracks, you can only monitor the microrecorded sounds. Is there any solution?
Sorry Jay, I can only suggest going over the detailed instructions to see if you have missed anything. Hope you find a solution.
ok.😢😢😭
I can hear my immediate self through the headphones then an echo after that throws me off while recording, my microphone also tends to record my voice very very quiet, how can I fix this?
Sam, I imagine you are listening to a prerecorded track while you are recording your voice. You will have to go into the settings on your computer to adjust the audio output settings to stop the mic track being sent to the speakers. I hope that helps.
Hi Gary, I've just gotten a Rode NT-USB+ and I tried recording myself singing. I plugged it into my iPhone, and my headphones into the laptop that's just beside for the backing track. I then recorded myself singing using my phone's camera. However, when I played back, I'm not entirely sure if the audio I hear is actually from the mic, or my phone? I'm quite confused actually as to how mics work. I want to record a clean audio that I can manually add on to the backing tracks because I normally record a few takes, and so having a clean direct audio track will help when I piece together parts from different recordings. I'm not sure if this makes sense, but it does in my head. 😂
I get quite frustrated when I don't know what's going on, and I wonder if I set it up wrongly or so. But according to this video, I believe I set it up the correct way as well. But something just feels wrong, but I can't tell what and where I went wrong. 🥲
can you connect it to a audio interface for better quality?
I should have asked, that I also produce commercials for TV. Does this sound quality work for that use?
+Java Futter sounds like you have a lot of experience considering you are doing work with commercials. Every mic has its own characteristics. I haven't used the Avid. One thing that my help is that there are some good demonstration videos of the Rode NT-USB mic playlist on the Rode CZcams channel. This may help to decide.
Video effects from the 90s? Check
HaHa! Yes I'm a bit limited in my editing skills.
Hey mate my microphone makes the biggest screeching sound in adobe prmeier pro how can I fix this?
You may find the the sound from your computer speakers is looping back through the mic. This is audio feedback. Turn off your speakers and use headphones when using mic or go into the settings for your computers audio and switch off hearing your mic through speakers.
@@GaryDmedia thanks mate I’ll try that!!! ❤️
I did not know about the condensation problem, and have let my mic out in the open for as long as I've had it, which is about 8 months now. Does this mean the mic may have suffered irreversible damage?
No. The problem lies in its performance with moisture on the diaphragm. If you dry it out it would return to full performance. All of this of course is if your humidity in your region is above 70% or so. Most areas are generally 50 - 55%. Hope that helps.
Hi. Will it not work with usb c to USB adapter? I am trying to connect but seems like GarageBand is not recording from nt rode microphone, however from internal microphone of iPad. How can I know if my microphone is working in GarageBand?
Thank you for this help to set up. I plan to use for voice recordings for my meditations. Do I need an application for this? Any tips please.
Thanks Liz. Happy to hear the video was helpful. Use any of the voice recording software you have on hand. You will just have to be sure your software has selected the microphone as its source.
Maybe you can help 🤞🏼. Ive got this exact same mike. I use Logic in an iMac (M1 chip). My audio interface is a Focusrite Scarlet 2i4. Ive got the USB out from the Focusrite going into my USB hub which itself goes into the Mac.
This is where Im stuck. Where do I put the mike ?
If I connect it to the hub a message pops up in Logic asking me if I want to use the newly found audio interface/device. If I click No, Logic behaves as normal. I can play my music back BUT cant record any vocals. Theres not even any meter activity.
If I choose Yes to the question,the light on the mike comes on and I can see input activity on my Logic input channel. However, if I press Play the song looks like its playing and I can record my vocals, but not hear any music 🤷♂️. Am totally stuck so if you do know what I’m doing wrong Id be grateful 🙏
I can understand how confused you must be. The NT-USB Mic won't plug into your Focusrite interface cause the Rode mic has its own interface built in. You simply plug the USB lead into the hub and set the mic up as another audio interface. The microphone that would plug into the focusrite is has a XLR type lead. Like the RODE Podcaster mic or a Shure SM58. Hope that helps.
@@GaryDmedia Thanks. Thats what I thought. However when I plug the microphone into my Mac, I get that message popping up asking me if I’m happy to change the audio device to the mike. I select Yes and sure, I can record my voice. However, I can’t hear my music that I’ve recorded so basically if I do a vocal take I have to guess where to sing ! Which clearly isn’t ideal. Thanks for the advice though. Appreciate that. Ive got an old Shure mike that I can record vocals on via my mixer so think Ill stick to that and sell the RODE 👍🏻
So what if i wanted to run a mic cable directly to the camera from the mic but i also want to hear myself? I have BEATS SOLO headphones. Im planning to do singing covers.
Hi +Shola Eniobama You could use an adaptor to split your headphone feed from the mic like I did in the video, and run that to the camera but it would be far better quality to record your audio separately on your computer and match it up when you edit the video. Hope that helps.
+Shola Eniobamo Wish you well on your covers. Nice to see you made a start on your Channel. I learned so much from a CZcams channel called +Video Creators. Tim Schmoyer is such a great help. Hope it goes well.
+Shola Eniobamo Thanks for the link. The software Gina Pimentel is using is the MAC version of Garageband. She has prerecorded the piano track and while listening to via the RODE NT-USB she records her voice onto Garageband as another track. The computer speaker output can be run to the camera to add audio while recording but there would be a lot of delay called latency, and the voice would not exactly match the video. The best way to synchronize the audio and video after. Simply put, to get this quality of audio you would have to add the recorded track in your video editing stage. Hope this helps clear it up.
Your videos are very helpful! I was wondering where the gain control is on an MacBook Pro? And also what size adapter you have for you iPad? Thank you
good afternoon
can i use rode for my iphone 6 plus ?
+MY GOALS Goals Good question, Just tried out the mic on my iPhone 5 and it works fine. The same as if it was plugged into an iPad with the assistance of a USB adapter as highlighted in the video. The only thing to consider is, the mic will drain your phone battery quite fast unless you add a powered USB hub. This would be a great option if you were recording podcasts on the go. Thanks for the great question.
GAZZA! Love ya accent m8!
I have failed maybe about 4 videos already with audio so low it was unusable, turning the volume switch up on the mic didn't help. I wonder why the volume is so low on my microphone, it's my first time ever using a proper microphone so i'm confused
You will need to go into the audio settings on your computer or software you are using and increase the gain level.
@@GaryDmedia thanks I tried to turn up the volume from software and from microphone, neither worked I tried several audio settings on my computer settings before I finally found the right volume to turn it up from. Was really weird it wasn't in devices, sound or microphone settings on my computer I had to open the sound control panel which I found by accident then accidentally figured it out
Awesome, that’s great you were able to resolve it.
*Hi Gary*
I have a laptop and it doesn't have good sound card is this mic going to work on my laptop??
+I'm da cool Yes I have used it on my PC and small laptop running Windows. On the RODE Microphones CZcams channel they have setup videos for both PC and Mac.
is the thread on the microphone holder a standard boom arm thread or is an adapter needed
RODE supply an adapter as well. So it suits the large and small threads.
