The NT2-A continues the tradition started by its legendary predecessor, the RØDE NT2. This professional 1" large-diaphragm studio microphone features three polar patterns, a front-mounted pad, and a low-cut filter. Its bandwidth and transient response meet the demands of today's studios, while still recalling the silky-smooth sound of legendary mics from the 1950s and 1960s. These features make the NT2-A one of the most versatile condenser mics available. The NT2-A comes with an SM6 shock mount, dust cover, mic cable, and an online instructional video showing a range of recording techniques and tips from recording engineer and producer John Merchant. The RØDE NT2-A is designed and manufactured in Australia and is backed by a free 10-year RØDE warranty. • Large 1" gold-sputtered HF1 capsule • Polar pattern, low-cut filter, and gain are adjustable on the mic body • Polar pattern: omnidirectional, cardioid, or Bidirectional • Three low-cut filter settings: neutral, 40Hz, or 80Hz • Three level settings: 0dB, –5dB, and –10dB • Extremely low self-noise • Internally suspended capsule • Supplied with RØDE SM6 shock mount, pop filter, and dust cover • Australian designed and manufactured.
