Rode NT1 5th Generation Black

The Rode NT1 5th Gen XLR and USB-C Studio Microphone is the latest edition of the critically-acclaimed condenser microphone, now with USB-C connectivity and a 32-bit float digital output for unparalleled audio fidelity. The original NT1 was first introduced in 1991, evolving through the years to be one of the best-selling studio microphones ever made.

Combining analog and digital connectivity, the NT1 5th Gen Microphone provides the best of both worlds. At the core of the Rode NT1 is the HF6 gold-sputtered condenser capsule which provides ultra-low self-noise (4dBA) and a wide frequency range to capture every nuance of your sound source. The fifth generation NT1 is also the world's first 32-bit floating point recording microphone via USB-C which matches the dynamic range of the capsule with your device's A/D converters. This eliminates any clipping whether you're recording a quiet whisper or the loudest drum kit.

Another groundbreaking new addition is the built-in DSP (digital signal processing) providing advanced APHEX audio processing with a range of effects including a compressor, high-pass filter, noise gate, and more. The Rode NT1 also comes complete with a range of accessories including a shock mount, a pop filter and both XLR and USB-C cables, providing everything you need to get started straight out of the box.
