Today I review the Rode NT-USB Mini, a cardioid usb condenser microphone, and I compare it to the Samson Q2u, Blue Yeti Nano, Audio Technica AT2020, Rode Podmic, Blue Yeti, Samson G-Track pro, Rode NT-USB, Rode Video Mic NTG, and the Rode NT1. This mic offers a smooth mid forward sound with a somewhat crisp top end that’s not overbearing.
