Description
The Rode NT55 Matched pair is an acoustically matched pair of pencil condenser microphones with interchangeable omni and cardioid capsules.
Main Features
- Acoustically matched stereo pair
- Externally biased condensers
- Cardioid or Omni polar pattern using included interchangable capsules
- Gold sputtered ½ inch capsules
- Three position High-Pass Filter - flat, 75Hz and 150Hz
- Surface mount circuitry
- Low noise
Like the NT5, the Rode NT55 is a small-diaphragm, true-condenser cardioid microphone, sometimes referred to as a ‘pencil mic’. The NT55 adds both a three position pad (0, -10dB, -20dB) and three stage high pass filter (Off, 75Hz, 150Hz), and includes the interchangeable NT45-O omnidirectional capsule.
Intended for recording acoustic instruments, drum overheads, cymbals and live performances, the compact externally polarised mic employs a ½ inch capsule, an active J-FET impedance converter with bipolar output buffer.
Its tight cardioid pickup pattern also makes it ideal for use as an indoor dialogue microphone for filmmaking on a mic stand or boom.
