The NT1 is RØDE's revolutionary 1 inch diaphragm condenser microphone.
The new NT1's housing is very similar to the NT1-A, but the microphone has been redesigned from the ground up and the only common component is the mesh grille.
The RØDE designer approached the NT1 as a fusion of innovation and tradition, starting with an all-new design capsule. Codenamed the HF6, it is a perfect example of RØDE's fusion of artistic design approach and state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, featuring ultra-low noise and sonic characteristics reminiscent of the famous microphones of yesteryear.
It has been developed with a focus on detailed midrange response, coupled with silky smooth high frequencies, and warm, round, bass reproduction to make the NT1 an absolute standout in its class.
In another world-first for RØDE, the transducer itself is suspended inside the microphone using Rycote’s industry-leading Lyre system, minimizing external vibrations at the capsule level. The capsule is then married to high-grade electronics that have been designed to provide the lowest noise level of any studio microphone available. The NT1 is an incredibly quiet microphone, measuring only 4.5dBA of self-noise.
Its body is machined from 6061 aluminium and then nickel plated for resistance against corrosion. Finally it is coated in a durable, military-grade ceramic layer, using advanced electrostatic application techniques developed by RØDE to ensure an extremely hard wearing finish that is resistant to scratches or marks.
The NT1 is supplied with the SM6, a high-quality suspension shockmount that provides isolation from external physical factors that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone. It includes a removable pop shield with two axes of adjustment and a telescopic arm for ultimate application versatility.
The NT1 is designed and made in Australia, and is covered by RØDE's industry-leading 10 year warranty.
