True studio sound. Rode NT55 Studio Condenser Microphones let you capture acoustic instruments, drum overheads, and more with clarity and precision. Enjoy warm audio capture from two externally biased condensers. Whether you’re on stage or in the studio, 0.5″ gold sputtered diaphragms offer a wide frequency response so you can record every single detail.
No hassle. No hard work. Just clear, uncoloured sound. NT55s offer flexibility with two polar patterns selectable. Reduce unwanted background noise with the cardioid pickup or capture the sound of your room with the omnidirectional pattern. What’s more, low self-noise ensures clear sound wherever you record.
From studio recording to filmmaking, NT55s are ready for action with a robust nickel-plated body. Knocks, drops, scratches, and scrapes will never get in the way of your session. What’s more, the included microphone heads and mic clip let you get to work straight out of the box. With NT55s, you’ve got everything you need for pro-audio.
Tailored to your performance. When you’re recording audio, you need flexibility. That’s why NT55s are built with performance and practicality in mind. Whether you’re recording instruments in the studio, dialogue in the vocal booth, or a performance out in the field, NT55s let you tailor your microphone to fit the application. Stop distortion from high-output sources with the three-position pad. Or tame unruly frequencies with the three-stage high-pass filter. It all adds up to one thing – high-fidelity sound suitable for any professional project.
