Review: Better than NT1A, flexible and great value pack. Wish I'd found it sooner. - I have quite a few dynamic and condenser microphones at various price points (some well above this price point), but I wanted the NT2A strictly for it's optional Figure8 pickup pattern as a side microphone in a mid-side stereo recording array. Absolute tonal quality was therefore not vital to me. Having previously owned Rode's slightly cheaper fixed cardioid NT1A microphone, I was expecting the NT2A to exhibit a similar sonic characteristic... i.e. sibilant, overly bright and difficult to use in an untreated room, but with the added convenience of 3 selectable pickup patterns. Well I can tell you the NT1A and NT2A are different animals, and irrespective of the added features the NT2A is a much better microphone. Used in cardioid mode as a vocal mike, it is much more natural sounding than the NT1A and does not exhibit any of the sane excess sibilance or 'hyped' top end. I put it up against my more expensive Shure KSM32 (a £500+ single pattern microphone) and it did not disgrace itself. In fact it sounded better in some circumstances. With it's selectable pickup patterns, great sound quality, and bundled cable and shock mount for £209 all in (at the time I purchased it), The Rode NT2A studio pack is really great value. If I'd discovered this model earlier, I probably would've saved a small fortune by not buying much more expensive models from other manufacturers. Any downsides? Not really. However a word of advice to novice recording artists... if you need to maximise subject isolation in an untreated room, you might be better off with a good dynamic model (e.g. Shure's excellent SM7B) as they tend to pick up less of the room.... just be aware that if you go that route you'll need a pre-amp with at least 60db of clean gain. The NT2A does well off more modest pre amps.
Review: If you don’t know what mic to get, get this one! - Mics are subjective, depends on your voice, some mics are more trebly some more bassy, you pick them to compensate and or enhance your voice... BUT... If you don’t have loads of money, in my opinion, this is a safe bet. You can tweak the range even before you record... the less post EQ you use the better in my opinion. It’s a good solid professional sounding mic... It sounds .... hmmm... yes professional is the word... For reference I also have the NT1a and that is more trebly and sounds ... yes cheaper, looser.... It’s a good mic, but personally I think the NT2a is MORE than worth the extra cash. Past this mic, you are talking a lot of money, and the difference between this and a well know brand I will not mention, does not equate to £3,700.... in my opinion. It’s more or less an industry standard, the popular choice for home studios. A Safe bet.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Taught me something or two
*by A***R on 9 October 2014*

I'm not very experienced in audio recording at all and needed a microphone to record my acoustic guitar - among other things. Led by great reviews I bought this product, and once again being no expert, I am astonished at the clarity and fidelity. Sometimes the microphone can even make my guitar playing sound sweet - maybe that's a slight over-statement, but it was very evident that I was playing certain frets badly - the mic picked this up, of course - I am "in the moment" when I'm playing so tend not to listen too hard really - I should fix that. However, simply playing back a performance showed my short-comings which I'm doing my best to overcome. Great microphone that I hope will last me several (many) years with careful usage. It is a bit delicate in my butter-fingered hands but I'm certain it is constructed well. It certainly feels "quality" to my untrained eyes and ears.
