Rode NT6 Compact Condenser Microphone
The
Rode NT6 is a professional general purpose condenser microphone that exhibits the convenience of flexible placement, making it a strong candidate for instrument capturing in recording and sound reinforcement applications. Capitalizing on the success of the renowned NT5, the engineers at Rode implement it's cardioid capsule into the miniature design of the NT6.
The NT6 features a detached microphone head (capsule) and body (output stage). A 10-foot (3 meter) Kevlar reinforced cable attaches the two components and enables flexible microphone mounting and placement. The NT6 features a cardioid polar pattern which effectively minimizes noise due to off-axis ambient audio and feedback. A -10dB Pad switch provides added head room, allowing excessively loud signals - such as brass and percussion - to be captured without noise or distortion. A low frequency roll-off switch eliminates low frequency noise and rumble below 80Hz.
