COMPLETE STUDIO KIT WITH AUDIO INTERFACE PERFECT FOR HOME RECORDING (NT1 / AI-1 KIT)
The perfect first step into home recording
RØDE’s AI-1 Audio Interface is stacked with incredible technology to ensure recording on your computer is easy, versatile and sounds superb.
The Complete Studio Kit comes with:
- Audio Interface (AI-1)
- RØDE’s peerless large diaphragm condenser microphone (NT1)
- Shock mount (SMR)
- XLR Cable
- USB Cable
RØDE’s AI-1 Audio Interface is packed with incredible technology to ensure recording on your computer is easy, versatile and sounds superb. The AI-1’s single input is a NeutrikTM Combo Jack, which takes both a 3-pole XLR (common to most microphones) and a quarter-inch jack common to most electric instruments like guitar, bass et al. Layering tracks is as easy as plug in, set level and go. Not only does the AI-1 deliver crystal clear audio to your computer software, but headphones have never sounded sweeter thanks to the discrete studio-quality headphone output and level control.
