Product Information
When you need a bright and detailed signal, the Rode NT5 is a capable microphone choice. With one glance at the gold-speckled exterior housing, you'll know that it will look good in a professional's hand in front of a crowd. It is also a solid mic for casual and "off-stage" uses like capturing audio for films and recording an album or interview. These NT5 condenser wired microphones have a pressure gradient acoustic principle that makes them a name to remember. With an output impedance of just 100 ohms, these audio tools will keep you recording and performing without any interruptions.The mic is sensitive and gives an accurate sound reproduction because of the internal JFET impedance converter outfitted with a bipolar output buffer. The sound quality soars as these components come to life after attaching the wiring to a DC power source. Acoustic instruments produce pristine reverberations with this condenser microphone that boasts a maximum output level of 13.9 mV. It has a weight of about 3.5 ounces. You can easily snap this mic into a recording stand as an acoustic guitar plays along. Use these mics as a single unit or combine them as a matched pair, depending on your musical application. They're acoustically tuned to each other for optimal recording results.The pencil style, small-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphones require phantom power, such as from a 24- or 48-volt interface or mixer found in nearly every studio or stage. With an exterior housing that's only 0.5 inches wide and nearly 5 inches long, these Rode NT5 condenser microphones snap into almost any mount. Add them above drums, a guitar, or other musical gear. They are wired with a black rubber mount as a strain relief behind the main Rode assembly piece. The heavy-duty satin nickel-plated body has a matte finish so that it blends in with the surrounding gear during performances. The stereo mic itself is isolated at the tip of the capsule to focus the sounds that travels into the electronics.The matched pair microphones are ideal for placement in front of vocal and instrumental groups because of the low-noise specs offered by the surface-mounted circuitry within the unit. These components are firmly attached to the printed circuit board inside of the housing, which allows you to add an interchangeable, omnidirectional capsule as alternative accessories in the future. The sound quality is impeccable with the product facing in either direction with the new capsule installed.Because of the small diaphragm, this pair of audio tools comes with a full frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Their tight cardioid pickup pattern also makes them ideal for use as an indoor dialogue microphone for filmmaking. They can be powered from dual sources so that your instruments can offer great reverb on the fly without any power disruptions.Keep your Rode products in a hard-shell carrying case so that the components are protected from any bumps and bruises. The product design hails from Australia and is available all over the world.Product Identifiers
