RØDE NT5-MP

The RØDE NT5 is the perfect small-diaphragm condenser microphone for recording acoustic instruments, drum overheads, cymbals, live performances and other sound sources which benefit from stereo miking.
This compact externally polarized mic employs a .5” capsule, an active J-FET impedance converter with bipolar output buffer, and top-quality components throughout, and is simply awesome in stereo X/Y mic setups.

Finished in durable satin nickel finish, NT5 matched pairs come supplied in a custom carry case with windshields and mounts.

As sonically pleasing as their NT4 cousin, the NT5 matched pair uses the same cardioid pattern condenser as the NT4, but without the dual head design. The NT5 are excellent mics for recording practically any instrument - guitar, flute, violin, saxophone, drums, etc. The NT5s have become a staple of many project and pro studios for overhead drum miking.

Rode has built their reputation on cost-effective, but great sounding mics, and the NT5 is no exception.
