Rode NT55-S Small Diaphragm Microphone

Rode NT55-S Small Diaphragm Microphone Like the NT5, the RØDE NT55 is a small-diaphragm rod microphone with a true condenser. In addition to the familiar feature set, it offers pre-attenuation (0, -10dB, -20dB) and a low-cut filter (off, 75Hz, 150Hz). In addition, an NT45-O omnidirectional capsule is included. It is preferred for miking acoustic instruments, as a drum overhead, for cymbals and live applications. This externally polarized microphone features a 1/2" capsule and an active J-FET impedance converter with a two-pole output buffer. Its narrow cardioid pickup pattern is also suitable for dialog recording using a microphone stand or a boom pole in a film studio.
