Incredible sound and amazing pickup!
The Rode NT1-A is seen as a little brother to the more popular NT1, this is not the case. These microphones are vastly different to each other. While the NTA picks up lower frequencies the NT1-A picks up higher frequencies delivering a punch lost with the NT1. This mic has been my daily driver from singing to sampling. The mic comes with various accessories such as, a compatible shock mount, 6m XLR cable, a mic sleeve and even Rode stickers. The first thing I noticed was the microphones build was extremely solid, after dropping it multiple times I can vouch that it is extremely hard to break, just don't go throwing it off buildings and you'll be fine. The rode NT1-A is a dynamic microphone using a cardioid condenser polar pattern, this basically means that it picks up sounds from a very specific area that looks a bit like a heart shape. This is what makes the mic great for vocals since it is so good at rejecting sounds from other directions. Overall the microphone is incredible for the price, if I was a beginner to vocal production, this would be my go to mic!

Cheap & Incredible For Most Uses!
This keyboard is cheap and reliable. I bought myself one of these almost 6 months ago, it's been my daily driver since. If you plan to use this keyboard for plugins, I couldn't recommend it more. The keyboard is extremely responsive has a great design with it's drum pads being to the side of the keys instead of directly above, a design tactic many cheap midi keyboards use today. My one critique is the tedious setup process for the drum pads, the software provided is clunky and daunting for beginners, but once the you figure out the software it's extremely fun mapping random sounds to your drum pads. Overall this is an incredible product for the price, I would recommend.
