About this listing
An NT1 with XLR & USB for Recording, Podcasting & StreamingFeaturing both an analog XLR connector and a digital USB-C connector, the black Rode NT1 5th Generation represents another major leap forward for this highly regarded large-diaphragm workhorse microphone. The dual connection options offer a new level of flexibility, allowing users without an audio interface to plug directly into the computer for recording, podcasting, and streaming duties courtesy of the onboard 32-bit floating point A to D converter. Of course, if you have an audio interface, podcasting station, or favorite microphone preamp, no problem—just connect the mic's XLR output to your analog equipment and you're good to go. Combining a true-condenser capsule, ultralow-noise circuitry, and an extremely durable housing, the Rode NT1 5th Generation large-diaphragm cardioid microphone is well suited for high-resolution digital recording of vocal and instrument sources at home, in the studio, or even on stage.Internally Shockmounted HF6 Cardioid Condenser CapsuleBehind the protective mesh grille, the mic features Rode's 1" gold-sputtered HF6 capsule, designed to provide a detailed midrange response with smooth highs and warm bass.The cardioid polar pattern focuses audio capture on the souce in front of the mic, picking up less unwanted ambient sound from the back and sides.The transducer itself is suspended inside the microphone using Rycote's industry-leading Lyre system, minimizing external vibrations at the capsule level. The capsule is then married to high-grade electronics that have been designed to provide an extremely low noise level. The NT1 5th Gen is an incredibly quiet microphone, measuring only 4 dBA of self-noise.The mic is powered by phantom power through the XLR connector or by bus power through the USB-C port.Revolution Preamp & 32-Bit Floating Point ConvertersRode has equipped the digital side of the NT1 5th Gen with some innovative features to ensure you get outstanding audio quality from the USB connection, beginning with the built-in Revolution preamp, which provides plenty of ultralow-noise gain to feed the analog to digital converter.With its 32-bit floating point A to D converter, you'll never need to worry about clipping again. The converter supplies such a high headroom and wide dynamic range that it's virtually impossible to overload, allowing you to worry less about maintaining perfect recording levels and focus more on your creative work.Sampling rates up to 192 kHz are supported.Control Your Audio and Customize Your SoundRode's included software allows you to customize the NT1 5th Gen's sound signature to suit your voice with advanced APHEX processing, including the legendary Aural Exciter and Big Bottom.Remove background noise and make your audio sound smooth, detailed, and punchy with a compressor, noise gate, and high-pass filter.Fine-tune to perfection with granular control over every processor, just like professional audio mixing software.All audio processing is managed by the powerful DSP chip inside the microphone, which takes a load off your CPU.The software makes it easy to connect and mix multiple USB microphones and sources at the same time, allowing you to podcast and stream without a dedicated audio interface.Bundled AccessoriesThe NT1 5th Generation is supplied with the SM6, a high-quality suspension shockmount that provides isolation from external physical factors that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone.It includes a removable pop shield with two axes of adjustment and a telescopic arm for ultimate application versatility.The mic also comes with a balanced XLR microphone cable and a USB-C to USB-C cable.RODE NT1GEN5B SpecsMicrophonePrimary ApplicationsLive Sound, Studio RecordingForm FactorLarge Diaphragm Mic / Stand/Boom MountIntended Sound SourcesVocals, Speech/Voice Over, InstrumentSound FieldMonoOperating PrinciplePressure GradientCapsule1 x CondenserDiaphragm1" / 25.40 mmPolar PatternCardioidOrientationSide AddressCircuitrySolid-State (JFET)PadNoneHigh-Pass FilterNoneTone AdjustmentNoneGain AdjustmentNoneIndicatorsNoneOn-Board ControlsNoneWindscreenNonePerformanceFrequency Range20 Hz to 20 kHzMaximum SPL132 dB SPLImpedance100 OhmsSensitivity-29 dBV/Pa at 1 kHzOutput Level8 mV (Max, 1 kHz)Dynamic Range128 dBSignal-to-Noise Ratio90 dB A-WeightedEquivalent Noise Level4.5 dB A-WeightedConnectivityOutput Connectors (Analog)1 x XLR 3-Pin Male (on Mic)Output Connectors (Digital)1 x USB-C Female (on Mic)Headphone ConnectorNoneCable Length19.7' / 6 mWireless ConnectivityNoneBluetoothNoneWi-FiNoneDigital AudioA/D Conversion32-BitSample RateUp to 192 kHzDigital Signal ProcessingCompressor, EQ, Noise Reduction, Sound PresetsOS CompatibilityWindowsmacOS*As of January, 2023: Check with manufacturer for the most up-to-date compatibilityMobile App CompatibleNo*As of January, 2023: Check with manufacturer for the most up-to-date compatibilityPowerBus PowerNoneOperating Voltage24 V (Phantom Power)48 V (Phantom Power)PhysicalColorBlackMountingShockmount (Included)Included CaseNoneIncluded FiltersPop FilterConstruction MaterialAluminumDimensionsø: 2 x L: 7.5" / ø: 5 x L: 19 cm (Microphone)Weight11 oz / 311 g (Microphone)
