RODE NT5 Overview

The Rode NT5 is a small diaphragm microphone featuring full frequency response and low-noise output circuitry. Designed for general instrument recording and sound reinforcement.

The cardioid polar pattern effectively minimizes audio at the off-axis sections, reducing noise caused by leakage, monitors, additional instruments, etc. The NT5 offers a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz allowing the microphones to be used in a wide variety of applications such as drum overhead miking, stereo capturing of instruments, vocal capturing, etc. The NT5 is powered via +24V or +48V phantom power. The package includes a windscreen, mic clip, and padded zip pouch.

The cardioid polar pattern is effective in minimizing off-axis noise due to leakage, additional instruments, room ambiance, etc.
Wide Frequency Response
