Value For Money : Excellent
This microphone is ideal for singing, but also lends itself very well to the recovery of overhead guitar amps or drums.
This is the condenser, cardioid. Indeed, it does not blow at all. The suspension is provided, average quality but it does its job.

OVERALL OPINION

I have one for 2-3 years, it makes me proud to services regularly. Sometimes I prefer it to a Neumann U87i (which lends me from time to time) for some voice!
It is well to nab the warm voice and clear up a little without equal. Extra: easy placement in a mix.
It captures less wide than the Neumann cardio benefit: less than repisse and parasites in the decision!
It is somewhat less well defined in a U87 mediums.
Still, a sense of respect for the sources and relative neutrality.
The price / quality ratio is excellent: I was able to accurately compare the NT1A and U87 in a position of taking voice: the little doing very well! The differences are subtle: a sound a bit harder for Rode, treble a little less silky ... but ten times cheaper ... This is a good microphone to report quality / price ratio, perfect to start recording in the condenser microphone.
