I personally think the NT1 sounds much better and fuller, espeacially for spoken word, and I like the included spider and pop filter. Great video!

[AlfredCangry]

Which one do you recommend to record voices and produce my songs Nt1 5TG OR Aston Origin

[Erik-qwcy]

Your singing voice. Goddamn. I really hope you sing on some released tracks :)

[bladelaserblazer]

the aston is great to bring out that edge and almost like a vocal fry effect on a singer. i prefer the aston for vocals. i’d use the rode and also stack it with something else for instruments only. the rode has a bit too much body for me to what i like in vocals.

Which one do you recommend me if I don't have room with acoustic treatment?? (putting aside the accessories)

[budgetkeyboardist]

On my laptop speakers, the NT1 was better. The Aston had some shrillness to it. That's just my laptop speakers, of course, and that's far from definitive.

[Benyosefov]

The Aston is amazing great video just made my choice easy

[JoshuaMeek-Wicker]

jus add bottom to the origin with eq and it’ll sound just as warm as the nt1a as this is essentially what they did, the mesh pop filter on the aston prevents a lot of diapraghm contamination and unless u have a studio with hepa filters it isn’t worth buying anything without protection of the electronics and diapraghm from pollutants, i’ve lost thousands of dollars trying to figure out what was causing my audio issues just to learn it was essentially the diapraghm being gummed up from moisture and dust, MIND YOU i did take these things into consideration and every microphone i’ve ever had that didn’t hVe the internal pop filter ended up damaged faster than it came when i ordered it i now have a nuemann tlm 102 and i can tell u rn it protects it so well sounds the same since i bought it

I've been using the Rode NT1 since I bought my first one in 1998 - it's a great all round mic.
In this video I think the NT1 sounds better than the Aston.
For vocals nowadays I find myself preferring my AKG C214. I also use an SE-X1, which came with a great shockmount and acoustic surround

[nineclover]

has anyone ever told u that u sound a lot like kermit the frog? lol, also great video. love the nt1

[apostolicbible]

I would choose the Origin because of the cost.

[VIDSInsight]

Aston is uglier but sounds a bit better and clearer.

[NiSki]

deep/deeper voice go rode nt1 if you got a higher voice and/or deal with guitars etc go for the aston origin

[RunningRugby]

i'm an actor and multi-instrumentalist, and some of my instruments, especially accordion and bouzouki, could really use aston's high pass filter, but i would prefer not to have the brighter tone. anyone got any recommendations, is there any way to get that functionality out of the NT1 using software?

[HarvinderSingh-yyth]

Bandrew has already declared NT1 as winner against Aston.

[firesheik]

RODE NT1 5TH GEN OR ASTON SPIRIT
WHICH IS BEST..?

[canichedelamort]

Thank you for the video. I found the Aston underwhelming & agressive (high-end) on the voice comparisons, but I found it more exciting on than the NT1 on guitar. I would be curious to hear the same comparison applied to drum overheads.

[cabebeats]

Dude that room resonance is painful, cmon man you work with sound

[Ashraf_SHD]

Can you tell us what is the app you use in the video plz
