RODE NT-USB Microphone: How to setup and start recording

Thank you! Very clear and simple tutorial. That is exactly what I need!

Thank you!!!!

Nice mic, but they could have designed the swivel thing to be thicker. Mine broke/cracked when the mic toppled.

Oh wow 6 years ago. Hope i am not late to ask u now. 😅 Is this good for ASMR? BUT as i know this mic is too sensitive. Or maybe there is other option for me? How about dynamic mic. Is it goo for ASMR?

thank you!!

Simple✌💥

Hi Gary, great video, I subscribed to you channel but I have a question please: Which Boom stand works for Rode NT-USB Mic?. When I clicked in your link there are too many stands and I am confused and dont know which one does work for this specific Mic. Greatly appreciate your reply

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?

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!

thank you so much i just started making music this helps a lot

thanksss :)

Hello, I thought maybe You could offer some advice: I have the above microphone and a new PC. I use Sound Forge for sound editing but the sound in my videos is not as good as the sound in Your videos. Should I buy additional equipment?

Thanks a lot for this Gary. I just bought a Rode USB and following your setup process was super helpful. Cheers

What about PC???

I want to take off my mic from the stand but when I rotate it (both sides) Nothing happens :(

Lol. This was actually really helpful. I had no idea what the knobs on the side did. Thanks!

Trying to connect this to my TASCAM Mixcaster 4. Help would be appreciated.

⛔️🙂Sir please...what is the name of software to record,I would like to use my phone (android)

How to mute rode nt usb?

Hey mate my microphone makes the biggest screeching sound in adobe prmeier pro how can I fix this?

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?

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

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.

thanks

Good. Exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks.

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

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. 🥲

Hi Gary, can I use this MIC with a MAC computer?

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. :)

Thanks

This NT-USB IS OUTDATED. Newer mics from Rode are better.

Sir you are a savior, I was actually recording from BEHIND the microphone and wondering why the audio was rubbish lol

thanks Gaz just bought this because of your good review

Perfect video thanks for that👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

thumps up .

Nice review! Can you tell me how long is the cable? and if it it has performance if i speak not to close or i have to be close to the mic ? tyvm!

can you connect it to a audio interface for better quality?

this mic still has very good quality but, its support, (the thing you use to connect the mic and the stand), is very weak.... I broke mine and idk what to do about it, super glued many times, still didn't work

i got this mic and i don't know wich software to download, i am a gamer and use discord. i just wand clean audio. how can i set this up? wich software do i need?

love it!

Hi will it work with my iPhone 15 pro ? Thank you

Very helpful, thanks. I just received the Rode NT today from Amazon, and I was struggling. This explanation makes everything much easier.

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?

Finally! FINALLY a good video 😩😩😩

Thanks for that helpful info ! Is a pretty good mic for a usb hookup ! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Increíble, gracias por la explicación

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 fee like my gain is too low, we cant hear me enough

HeyGary, it’s so nice to see a presenter from Australia who is speaking on this topic thank you so much!

Bonjour , je suis sur bandlab et je n'arrive pas a avoir le retour auto-tune via les écouteurs branché au micro rode nt USB 2 . J'ai le retour auto-tune quand je les branche sur le téléphone, le soucis c'est que le rendu est moins bon que lorsque les écouteurs sont branché sur le casque ...
