Re: Rode NT1 okay for measuring?


Hi Wayne. I'll check out that link. Meanwhile, here's a copy of the spec page for the NT1 and the fre. resp. graph for the more recent version, the NT1A. I spoke to a guy in Rode and he said the two mics are similar enough to use this graph with reasonable accuracy. He said the main difference is in the noise level and that the frequency response is similar. Also, it is not flat but I gather from reviews like this one http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/1997...7/rodent1.html (see the section immediately under the heading ¨Rode test¨) that the enhancements are quite subtle, which seems to be reflected in the graph.

Spec sheet:

Frequency response graph:

Does it look like I could use this mic? If so, can you tell me how to create a cal file from this graph, or else point me to where I might find that out?

Thanks a lot,
Mark
