b'I spent a couple of weeks really testing out the RODE NT1 5th Generation Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone. There is a lot to love. But I have a few quibbles as well.\\nUnlike previous versions of the well-known NT1, the 5th generation is a "hybrid" mic. That means it is BOTH/EITHER a standard XLR mic OR a USB mic!\\xa0\\nPretty much every quibble I had was with the USB mode, like not having a headphone jack on the mic, and having issues getting Windows 11 to recognize it while also being able to use the RODE Connect software.\\nThis podcast episode was primarily about the highlights - how it sounds, and my personal favorite thing about it - 32-Bit Float!\\xa0\\nBut I do go into more details about my quibbles, plus the use of the on-board effects that you can use in USB mode, controlled by RODE Connect software (free) in the YouTube video I did on the mic, which you can find here: https://youtu.be/tn0IxGA1-XI'
