Rode NT5 Condenser Microphone

The Rode NT5 is a premier small-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone, sometimes referred to as a ‘pencil mic’. Intended for recording acoustic instruments, drum overheads, cymbals and live performances, the compact externally polarized mic employs a 1/2″ capsule, an active J-FET impedance converter with bipolar output buffer. Its tight cardioid pickup pattern also makes it ideal for use as an indoor dialogue microphone for filmmaking on a mic stand or boom.
