NT1 Cardioid Condenser Microphone. Although the body of the new NT1 closely resembles the NT1-A, the microphone has been completely redesigned from the ground up, with the only shared component being the mesh grille. R˜DE' design engineers approached the NT1 as a marriage of innovation and tradition, starting with the which is a completely new design. Codenamed the HF6, it is the perfect example of R˜DE' fusion of artistic design approaches and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques, and features a sound signature reminiscent of the famous microphones of old while at the same time exhibiting extremely low noise. It has been developed with a focus on detailed midrange response, coupled with silky smooth high frequencies, and warm, round, bass reproduction to make the NT1 an absolute standout in its class. In another world-first for R˜DE, the transducer itself is suspended inside the microphone using Rycote' industry-leading Lyre system, minimizing external vibrations at the level. The is then married to high-grade electronics that have been designed to provide the lowest noise level of any studio microphone available. The NT1 is an incredibly quiet microphone, measuring only 4.5dBA of self-noise. Its body is machined from 6061 aluminium and then nickel plated for resistance against corrosion. Finally it is coated in a durable, -grade ceramic layer, using advanced electrostatic application techniques developed by R˜DE to ensure an extremely hard wearing finish that is resistant to scratches or marks. The NT1 is supplied with the revolutionary new R˜DE SMR shock . Featuring a unique double-Lyre suspension system, the SMR enhances the existing superior vibration cancellation of Rycote' Lyre system by using a smaller inner Lyre to act as a tensioning element. This maintains each Lyre in the neutral position where it is most efficient at cancelling vibration. The SMR' removable all-metal pop filter is as effective as it is visually s...
