Although clearly relevant to instrument micing, the NT55 is extremely well suited to situations where a small “unobtrusive” but powerful microphone system is required. This matched pair of small diaphragm condensers will cover you for many sources from drum overheads to acoustic guitars and almost any other instrument where an ambient technique or lots of close-miked detail is required.

Here’s what Rode say about the NT55 Small Diaphragm Condenser Mic

The NT55 utilises the 1/2″ gold sputtered true condenser transducer used in the internationally renowned RODE NT5. The NT55 is a low-noise, balanced output microphone, exhibiting a wide dynamic range and full frequency response.

The NT55 circuit incorporates a three position variable PAD with 0dB, -10dB or 20dB attenuation, and a thereposition variable high-pass filter that enables you to step from a flat response to 75 or 150 Hz high pass filter.

The NT55 is complemented with a diverse range of accessories to better facilitate positioning and attachment.

Cardioid

A cardioid microphone is a type of microphone that has a directional pickup pattern, meaning it primarily captures sound from the front while rejecting noise from the sides and rear. The term “cardioid” refers to the heart-shaped pattern of sensitivity, which is most sensitive directly in front of the microphone and progressively less sensitive as the sound source moves to the sides or behind it. This makes cardioid microphones ideal for isolating a sound source, such as vocals or instruments, from unwanted ambient noise, making them particularly useful for live performances, studio recording, and broadcasting.

Matched

A matched microphone refers to a pair of microphones that have been carefully selected and calibrated to have identical or very closely matching characteristics, such as frequency response, sensitivity, and impedance. This ensures that both microphones sound consistent when used together, which is particularly important in stereo or multi-microphone setups. Matched pairs are commonly used in recording applications like capturing a drum kit or overheads, where consistency between microphones is key to achieving a balanced, accurate sound. Matched microphones help maintain uniformity in the recording, minimizing any discrepancies that might otherwise arise between the two channels.

Omni

An omni microphone (or omnidirectional microphone) is designed to capture sound equally from all directions, offering a 360-degree pickup pattern. This means it records audio from the front, sides, and rear with equal sensitivity, making it ideal for capturing the natural ambience of a space or for recording multiple sound sources at once. Omni microphones are often used in applications where a more accurate and immersive representation of the environment is desired, such as in field recording, orchestral recording, or capturing room acoustics. While they are great for gathering ambient sound, they can also pick up unwanted background noise if not used carefully in noisy environments.

RECORDING EQUIPMENT

Recording Equipment encompasses the essential tools used to capture, process, and produce audio in both professional and home studios. This includes microphones, audio interfaces, mixers, preamps, monitors, and recording software, all working together to achieve high-quality sound. Whether for music, podcasts, voiceovers, or film, recording equipment is key to transforming performances into polished, professional audio.

Stereo

A stereo microphone is a type of microphone designed to capture sound in two channels (left and right) to create a sense of depth and space, mimicking how we hear sound in real life. These microphones typically use two microphones arranged in a specific configuration, such as X/Y, A/B, or M/S (Mid/Side), to record sound from two distinct directions, resulting in a stereo effect. Stereo microphones are commonly used in recording environments where capturing the natural ambience or spatial characteristics of a sound source is important, such as in music production, field recording, or film sound design. They provide a more immersive listening experience compared to mono microphones, which capture sound from a single point.

Studio Microphones

Studio Microphones are designed for professional recording environments, delivering high-fidelity sound capture with exceptional detail and clarity. They are used for vocals, instruments, voiceovers, podcasts, and more, offering a wide range of pickup patterns and sensitivities to suit different recording needs. Studio mics often prioritise low noise, wide frequency response, and natural sound reproduction, making them a key tool in any recording setup.
