The NT55 from Rode is a compact condenser microphone designed to accurately reproduce vocals and general instruments in recording and sound reinforcement applications. The NT55 features a 3-position pad switch for added headroom while capturing loud, peaking audio signal. A 3-position low-cut filter switch eliminates low-frequency noise. The NT55 is a great choice for vocals, guitar, drums, cabinets, and more. The NT55 includes interchangeable omnidirectional and cardioid capsules for even further flexibility.
