About This Listing

Rode's highly sensitive 1/2"-diaphragm cardioid condenser shines on acoustic guitar and more. Pick up a matched pair for capturing performances in stereo.

The Swiss Army Knife of Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphones
Record guitar, drums, and a variety of other acoustic instruments with the versatile RODE NT5. The NT5's compact profile makes it great for situations where space is at a premium, yet its small size belies its serious workhorse microphone technology under the hood. You'll be amazed at the level of detail this little mic captures.

Focused Pickup Pattern, Full Frequency Spectrum

The NT5's 1/2" small-diaphragm capsule employs a tight cardioid pickup pattern that's great for capturing drum cymbals, violins, acoustic guitars, and saxophones. It responds to the full audible spectrum, with a nice open response in the mids and a gentle slope to bring out sparkling highs.

High-End Components For Low Noise
Inside of its heavy-duty satin nickel plated body, the NT5 features an externally biased condenser, a gold sputtered capsule, and surface mount circuitry. These components combine to provide astounding clarity and virtually no noise.

Great in Tandem
One of the most common applications for the NT5 is to use a pair as overhead drum mics in order to fully capture the sizzle and decay of cymbals. The results are also quite pleasing when using two NT5s to capture acoustic guitar.

A Do-It-All Small-Diaphragm Condenser
Whether you're recording a guitar track, filling out the drum mic set-up, or capturing audio during filmmaking, the RODE NT5 produces exceptional sound quality at a great price point.

Product Overview
The Rode NT5 is the flagship small-diaphragm cardioid condenser mic for RODE, offering up the perfect pencil mic for recording in virtually any situation. Drum overheads, acoustic instruments, close-mic'ing cymbals, even recording live performances -- the RODE NT5 does it all. Low self-noise and a full frequency response give the NT5 an awesome clarity of sound, and its cardioid pickup pattern is tight; tight enough, in fact, that it would be great for almost any live application, rejecting the noise you don't want getting through. And the NT5 even works with an interchangeable omnidirectional capsule for even further versatility.
