Great price for this well reviewed condenser microphone. It is USB, so does not need an interface to connect to your computer.
CamelCamelCamel.
+1 please support StoreDJ, it's one of the few physical stores in Australia where you can walk in and sample a large range of headphones.
Storedj are great, and same with this mic, quality is great, and super portable with a usb input.
Free shipping as well!
I don't need this to go with my logitech brio webcam from https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/645530 which I didn't need either, but I look more professional so I guess I should sound more professional too.
Do you have a video podcast?
Will do! Love this. I'm also upset I bought this on Friday for $230.
It was available for $159 from Digidirect with 20% eBay
Most popular microphone in Darwin?
Care to share what you mean?
NT-USB
yeah i know bad joke.
i'll leave now
Really bad…
all those upvotes say otherwise.
Tell us more jokes Randy Feltface!
i read it as rodent lol
Me too
It literally is.
"The modified microphone was an immediate success, with sales likened to taking off like "a rat up a drainpipe". This comment led to the microphone being unofficially called the ‘RODENT-1’, which was later changed to the RØDE NT1, thus establishing the RØDE Microphones brand."

Own a Samson meteor mic. Is this worth it for any upgrade? Just use it for discord.
ask the people on the other end.
Not worth upgrading for simple Discord/Zoom calls. While not a bad choice for callers, this mic is more suited to content creators.
?? That pic is USA not USB
Great microphone and good value for money. Our son uses it to record Trombone (online school - both Jazz and Orchestra bands) and also his Youtube channel. Works a treat.
glad its working out for him. Rode are a great Aussie company making great gear, but for musos generally I reckon it'd be worth ripping off the band-aid and getting an interface.
About $10 cheaper if you purchase off ebay with afterpay 15% off

Excellent mic. I got one from umart about $10 more than this. Money well spent.
Did some research and this works with PS4 :o
I use this to record audiobooks, definitely fantastic for recording pure voice, straight up has zero 'silence noise' with a small noise gate, and a little audacity magic to remove breathing for oxygenation purposes and presto!
That's also a good tip, no matter how fantastic the mic, additional after the fact tinkering or real-time filtering is half the magic.
Interested to know how you remove breathing in audacity. I've been contemplating recording audiobooks for my kids (then I don't have to read to them at night lol)
Been cheaper before
Yes. I bought it for $159 very recently.
I paid 149 couple yrs ago :)
Anyone know any aftermarket boom arm's that are compatible with this mic?

I've used this for years with mine. Pricey but well worth it.
I tested several boom arms when i was building a podcast kit, the rode psa1 is still the best in the market IMO. It moves really nicely, good reach, holds its position well and maintains mic angle regardless of movement.
is that boom arm longer than usual?
I've had this for years good mic
This was going for $159 with the Digidirect 20% eBay promo back in March. $180 is still a decent price for this mic. Its been around for a long time (still 16bit) but a goodie
Still in stock via StoreDj FYI, with free shipping as well
How does this compare to the Rode VideoMic Pro+?
Or is it too much of an apples to oranges comparison?

It looks like Amazon are price matching these guys.
Same price…
