RODE NT-USB Desktop USB Microphone
The RØDE NT-USB is a studio-grade cardioid condenser microphone that has become a staple for podcasters and streamers due to its "plug-and-play" simplicity and high-quality internal A/D conversion. While it was originally released in 2014, it remains highly popular, though it has recently been succeeded by the updated NT-USB+.
