RODE NT2000 Large-Diaphragm Multipattern Condenser Microphone

Combining a true condenser capsule, continuously variable polar pattern control, and ultralow-noise circuitry, the Rode NT2000 large-diaphragm studio microphone offers pro-level sonic performance along with extremely versatile pickup responses, making it ideal for capturing all sorts of voice and instrument sources, and for experimenting with the balance of direct and room sound. Plus, it includes a vibration-inhibiting shockmount and a hard shell carry case, so it is truly studio- and travel-ready.

With low noise being a top priority of the NT2000, its 1" gold-sputtered capsule is internally shock-mounted to further isolate it from handling and vibration noise. Enhancing its professional character are the onboard pad (variable from 0 to -10 dB) and high-pass filter (variable from 20 to 150 Hz) settings, which help avoid distortion and bass buildup. Since it can run on 24 or 48 VDC phantom power, the NT2000 can be used with a variety of professional and entry-level XLR mic preamps.
