Rode NT5-S Compact 1/2 "Cardioid Condenser Microphone, Includes Windshield and Mount The Rode NT5 is a cardioid condenser microphone, which is the preferred choice for acoustic instruments, drum overheads, cymbals, and live applications. This externally polarized microphone features a 1/2 "capsule and an active J-FET impedance converter with a bipolar output buffer. Its narrow cardioid characteristic is also suitable for dialogue recording with the help of a microphone stand or a fishing rod in the film studio. If required, the NT5 can be equipped with an optional omnidirectional capsule (NT45-O). The NT5 has a satin nickel housing and is also available as an acoustically matched pair. The NT5 is manufactured in Australia and allows the free extension of the Rode warranty to 10 years.
