There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It's really nice to just have something that records with such high quality that can be plugged in - in just a matter of 2 seconds via USB C. Absolutely amazing for my voice-overs. The Rode Central software is super easy and plun n' go. I'm not a big fan of the aural and big bottom exciters, but the compressor and high pass filter are top-notch. They work at the same time I'm recording using Audacity which is a huge plus.
All metal design
made in Australia (yes, not China)
24bit 48khz sample rate recording (you don't need more than that)
driverless (as far as I am aware)
USB C cable is firm and heavy
Pop filter get's the job done
stand is nice
lights up a blue LED on the side that records sound (looks nice)
super low noise and high gain (pretty impressive for USB actually)
Mid-range is the sweetest I have ever heard for a mic (perfect for voice)
I have no complaints. My mic came in damage free, so I am not sure what happened to the other reviewers mics. Not fair to give it 1 star, though. This mic screams quality outside in. The fact that Rode makes this mic in Australia tells me that they are really proud of it, and I can see why. Well worth the cost, as it's a weird mic that is super beginner friendly (it's plug and forget USB) and 'End-Game' (the quality is that impressive IMHO).
The build quality seems very nice as well, even the legs do not feel shoddy and the unit looks sleek. I do wish I could turn off the blue status light as it is mildly distracting!
One thing to note - you need to have a USB C port on your computer for this to work right, if you try a C to A cable it will stop working after a second of recording for some strange reason.

Reviewed in Mexico on January 11, 2024
Then Rode comes out with this microphone that allows to save DSP settings and use your own audio mixer solution and I was intrigued. Bit the bullet bought the microphone and I'm extremely content with the results.
Using Rode Central , I set the desired settings and just go! Plug, play , forget about it. No more tweaking, great extremely crisp sound and an amazing noise gate that finally removes the extra noise in my environment that other filters and plugins within OBS failed to do and not tax my CPU like crazy.
Will always recommend Rode to anyone I speak to. Just in love with the microphone and how great it sounds and no more tweaking!
I'm already invested in a BEACN Mix Create for my audio mixing solution, but love the idea I can access Unify as a backup if ever my Mix Unit dies.
Highly recommend this microphone if you're in store for a new one.
Não tive problemas de compatibilidade com nenhum software e sistema operacional, não ocupa espaço físico, muito bom de equalizar na pós produção e aprimorar frequências tanto graves como médio graves e até mesmo agudos.
O retorno da voz é excelente também, muito fácil de ser configurado e ideal para ajuste de posição seja do microfone quanto minha (locutor).
Recomendo!
