Rode NT55S cardioid omnidirectional capsule microphone

Built around the same acclaimed 1/2" gold sputtered true condenser transducer that made the RØDE NT5 internationally renowned, the NT55 represents a significant leap forward in professional microphone design. This low-noise, balanced output microphone showcases an impressive wide dynamic range and full frequency response, making it an exceptional choice for discerning audio professionals. The NT55's sophisticated circuit design incorporates both a three-position variable PAD offering 0dB, -10dB or -20dB attenuation, plus a three-position variable high-pass filter that allows you to select from flat response to 75Hz or 150Hz filtering options.

What sets the NT55 apart is its versatility through interchangeable condenser microphone heads, providing access to a wide variety of polar patterns to suit different recording scenarios. The microphone features JFET impedance converter electronics with bipolar output buffer, ensuring clean signal reproduction across its 20Hz to 20kHz frequency range. With a maximum SPL capability of 136dB and equivalent noise level of just 15dB-A, the NT55 handles everything from delicate acoustic sources to high-energy performances with remarkable clarity.

The NT55 comes complete with a diverse range of accessories designed to facilitate precise positioning and secure attachment in any studio or live environment. Weighing 110 grams and measuring 145mm in height, this compact yet robust microphone connects via standard XLR output, making it compatible with professional audio equipment worldwide.
