Ultra-Thin Ribbon Element
The NTR features a highly sensitive 1.8-micron-thick ribbon element engineered to capture detailed audio across a broad frequency range. Its design delivers the natural tonal characteristics associated with ribbon microphones while providing the flexibility needed for a wide range of instruments and vocal performances.
Extended Frequency Response
With a frequency response spanning 20 Hz to 20 kHz, the NTR offers a wider operating range than many conventional ribbon microphones. This extended response allows it to capture both low-frequency detail and high-frequency nuances, making it a versatile choice for professional recording applications.
Versatile Studio Recording Applications
The NTR is suitable for recording a broad selection of sound sources, including vocals, string instruments, brass, electric guitars, acoustic guitars, and drums. It can also be used as an overhead or room microphone, providing additional flexibility for capturing instruments and ambient sound.
Custom-Designed Transformer
An internally mounted transformer, designed and manufactured specifically for the NTR, supports the microphone's audio performance. This specialized component works alongside the ribbon element to deliver detailed sound reproduction across its extended frequency range.
Integrated Shockmounting System
The NTR incorporates an internal shockmounting system designed to help isolate the sensitive ribbon element from unwanted vibrations. This construction supports cleaner recordings while reducing the need for additional internal vibration protection.
Ribbon Protection During Transport
A dedicated ribbon-securing travel screw allows users to secure the delicate ribbon element when transporting or storing the microphone. This protective feature helps reduce the risk of accidental damage during handling and travel.
Extended 10-Year Warranty
With product registration, the RØDE NTR is backed by an extended 10-year manufacturer's warranty. The warranty also includes one complimentary ribbon replacement during the coverage period, providing additional protection for the microphone's sensitive ribbon element.
