With an ultra-low 6dBA self-noise and transformerless circuitry, the RØDE NT1000 delivers everything you'd expect from a microphone designed for recording vocals and instruments. With its versatile voicing, it's often considered the best grand piano and drum overhead mic. The NT1000 is also a fantastic vocal mic. The RØDE NT1000 is designed and manufactured in Australia and backed by a free 10-year extended RØDE warranty. • 1" HF2 capsule with gold-plated diaphragm • Cardioid pickup pattern • True condenser (externally polarized) • Wide bandwidth • Extremely low self-noise • Robust welded and heat-treated steel grille • Internal suspension within the capsule.
