The Rode NT1-A is a 2.5cm (1”) cardioid true condenser microphone. It has a wide dynamic range and is incredibly low noise (self noise is just 5dB). A frequency range of 20Hz – 20kHz makes it suitable for many types of wildlife recording as well as for musicians and recording artists. The cardioid polar pattern means that the microphone is most sensitive at the front and least at the back. The microphone has an XLR output and is powered by 12V or 48V phantom power.
The NT1-A comes with a shock mount with detachable pop filter, 6m shielded XLR cable and microphone dust cover.
Available as a single microphone or as a matched pair. The matched pair is supplied with two of each of the included accessories.
