よくある質問

Q.
Will the NT-USB Mini work with high-impedance headphones?
A.

The headphone amplifier in the NT-USB Mini is very powerful and easily capable of driving high-impedance headphones.

A.

Yes, the NT-USB Mini has an in-built pop filter for reducing plosives. This differs from the NT-USB which has an external pop filter.

A.

If you are still hearing an echo when you activate the zero-latency monitoring mode on the NT-USB Mini, you should mute your microphone channel output in your recording software.

Here’s an example. Let’s imagine you are adding the vocal track to a song. In your recording software, you have the other parts of the song - drums, guitar, bass and so on; you have created a track for the vocal and assigned the NT-USB Mini to this track to record. By default, your DAW will likely still be sending the output of the microphone back to the headphone along with the rest of the mix. You will hear this in addition as the zero-latency audio from the mic, meaning your voice might sound as if it has an echo or doubling effect on it.

To prevent this, mute the output of your vocal track in your software when you are recording the vocal. This means you will hear in your headphones two things - the full mix of the song, but without your voice, and the zero-latency monitor output of your voice. This makes for a more natural recording experience.

Once you’ve finished recording, don’t forget to unmute your vocal channel so you can listen to your song with the vocal track you just recorded in the mix. Also deactivate zero-latency monitoring so that you can edit your mix without any distracting sounds from the room being picked up by the mic and sent to your headphones.

A.

The NT-USB Mini is a condenser microphone, which means it is quite sensitive and capable of cleanly picking up audio further from the microphone. This makes it great for a wide variety of applications, from recording acoustic guitar to taking a video call while sitting at a desk. For singing, livestreaming or voiceover production, we recommend setting up the microphone around 10-15cm from the mouth to take advantage of the proximity effect. Placing the microphone closer to the sound source will also improve the voice-to-background-noise ratio.

A.

The NT-USB Mini is compatible with the PSA1+, DS1, Tripod and all RØDE boom poles.

A.

When you record into your computer, you usually want to monitor (listen to) what you are recording in your headphones. By default, the audio is sent from the microphone to your computer and is then processed by your recording software. It is then sent back to your headphones. The problem with this is that it takes a fraction of a second for your computer software to process the audio and send it back to the headphones which can cause a distracting delay – this delay is known as latency and will vary in length depending on your setup. This delay can make it very hard to perform naturally, whether you’re singing or speaking. The zero-latency monitoring mode removes this distracting delay. This is achieved by sending the output of the microphone directly to the headphones in real-time, bypassing the computer. This signal is accompanied by the output from your computer, so you can still hear the output (for example, your backing track if you are singing, or your game sound if you're streaming), but allows a more natural and comfortable listening experience (which results in a better performance).

To activate this mode, simply press the volume knob on the front of the NT-USB Mini. You will immediately hear the output of the microphone in your headphones. To deactivate this mode, simply click the volume knob again.

Note: When using zero-latency monitoring mode, you may want to mute your microphone channel output in your software while recording, so you only hear the rest of the mix. This will ensure the most natural and echo-free sound.

A.

The NT-USB Mini is more compact than the NT-USB. It also has an in-built pop filter, a magnetic base that is easily detachable, a 360-degree swing mount, and more streamlined, straightforward controls. This makes it a great portable, easy-to-use option. The NT-USB Mini also features built-in DSP that allows it to run the complex processes in RØDE Connect in real-time. 

The NT-USB features a removable pop shield, a locking thread base for mounting to external shock mounts, along with a monitor mix control knob to fine tune your mic input/device output mix. Both microphones deliver pristine, studio-quality audio.

A.

The NT-USB Mini will work with any device that supports class-compliant audio. This includes PCs, Macs, Android devices, and Lightning iOS devices when used with the camera connector kit. If there is a warning on your device that the mic draws too much power, then simply plug in the Lighting port of the adapter to a power supply.

A.

The knob on the NT-USB Mini is an output control for your headphone levels. It is not an input control - your input level must be set on your computer or recording device. This knob also activates zero-latency monitoring mode, which is enabled by pressing it and is indicated by the top left LED.

A.

The input level from the NT-USB Mini to your computer can be controlled through your system settings. For Mac, this will be in ‘Sound Preferences’ > ‘Input’ > ‘Input Volume'. For PC, it will be in ‘Recording Devices’ > click on “NT-USB Mini” > ‘Properties’ > ‘Levels’. The volume knob controls the output going to your headphones.

There are many things you can do to get a clean recording with minimal spill between microphones. Try recording in the quietest place possible, ideally in a room with minimal reflective surfaces (such as floorboards). Place the microphones as far away from each other as possible, faced away from one another. Positioning each microphone less than six inches from you and your guests’ will also help to capture a clean signal (you may need to use a desk stand or studio arm like the RØDE DS1 or PSA1+ to achieve this).
