Rode NT2-A Large-Diaphragm Multipattern Condenser Microphone

Rode NT2-A Large-Diaphragm Multipattern Condenser Microphone

The NT2-A is a highly versatile large-diaphragm studio condenser microphone designed to offer pristine audio quality and flexibility in equal measure. Featuring a three-position pad (0dB, -5dB, -10dB), high-pass filter (flat, 40Hz, 80Hz), and polar pattern control (cardioid, omnidirectional, figure-8), it can easily adapt to any recording situation in the studio.

The NT2-A features a dual 1-inch gold-sputtered cardioid condenser capsule with internal shock mounting and offers ultra-low self-noise and full frequency response, evoking the silky smooth character of the legendary microphones of the '50s and '60s.

Key Features:

• Multi-pattern large-diaphragm studio condenser microphone
• Three-position pad, high-pass filter, and polar pattern controls
• Ultra-low self-noise and full-frequency response
• Internal capsule shock mounting

Large-Diaphragm True Condenser

This true condenser (externally biased) features a 1" gold-sputtered diaphragm that provides a broad frequency response, wide dynamic range, and excellent signal. 

Three Polar Patterns

With three polar patterns selectable on the mic, the NT2-A offers excellent versatility for single-source close miking (cardioid recommended), dual-source pickup (figure-8 recommended), and room ambiance capture (omnidirectional recommended).

Special Voicing

The frequency and transient response of this transducer have been voiced to complement today's recording techniques, and yet still evoke the silky smooth character of the legendary microphones of the '50s and '60s.

Transformerless Output

The transformerless JFET output electronics result in an ultralow-noise output (just 7 dBA) while maintaining maximum signal gain.

48V Phantom Power

The NT2-A operates reliably on 24 or 48 VDC phantom power, which can be supplied via most XLR-connected mic preamps, mixer channels, or audio interfaces.
