Sorry for revamping the thread.
But, I own Rode NT2, and 2 years ago it started to turn off by itself, for example while recording, recording signal would start to fade out and then sudenly dissappears and then comes back etc...
I brought it to the distributor to inspect the microphone and they came to the same conclusion as I found but they couldn't find out why it is not working.
I wrote to Rode (because I read of their 10years waranty) and they told me I can't claim the warranty for the NT2 because they introduced warranty after I bought the mic, so they recommend me to buy Rode NT2A (to be honest, I have worked with Nt2a and NT2 and NT2 a has different sound IMHO, i like NT2 better).
In desperation (I loved that mic) I found a respectable engineer in my country (Sinevoice) and he inspected the mic and he found that the capsule has a factory error, he told me to write a mail to Rode and to tell them that he inspected the microphone and that they will probably help me (which I doubt because the microphone is not that expensive) but still is it worth to write them about it?
So, I don't know what to do, it's not my initial idea to make a mod on it, but I would change the capsule if that can make my mic in working condition again.
If the mod is the only solution, which capsule should I get for it?
Видимо конец моему мику.
