Product details
Like the NT5, the RØDE NT55 is a small diaphragm condenser microphone. In addition to its well-known features, it offers a pad (0, -10 dB, -20 dB) and a low-cut filter (off, 75 Hz, 150 Hz). Also included is an NT45-O capsule with a spherical polar pattern. It is primarily used for capturing acoustic instruments, as a drum overhead, for cymbals, and in live applications. This externally polarized microphone is equipped with a 1/2” capsule and an active J-FET impedance converter with a dual-output buffer. Its narrow cardioid pattern is also suitable for dialogue recording using a microphone stand or boom in a film studio. The NT55 features a satin nickel housing and is also available as an acoustically matched pair.
