Single Rode NTD Small Diaphragm Condenser Mic
The NT5 is a pencil-type, small-diaphragm, mono condenser mic that was originally offered in matched pairs featuring sequential serial numbers so that they're close to each other all the way through manufacturing. A typical use of the NT5 would be as drum overheads or recording high-hats. We've found that they are detailed and very clear, and with just a tiny bit of compression they sound great. The NT5 shares the same specs as the NT4 but if you prefer the positioning flexibility afforded by a pair of small-diaphragm mics, then the NT5 is an easy choice. If you're lookng for a great-sounding, and very affordable single small-diaphragm condenser mic, the Rode NT5-S is a single NT5. Small-diaphragm condenser mics such as the NT5-S have an even and wider frequency response than large diaphragm condensers, handle higher SPLs, and can more accurately capture instruments with a pronounced high-frequency component (violins, for instance).

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "The Rode NT5 never ceases to amaze me with its versatility and quality. I've used this in the studio and on the stage for guitars, pianos, voice, accordion, sax... you name it. Everything comes through the way it's supposed to - and with a light touch of flattery. Also, the low-end response is mighty impressive for such small capsules. If microphones were spices, this one would be cumin - you can put it on EVERYTHING. And at this price, you'll practically feel like you stole it. Bottom line - you WILL NOT go wrong with the NT5. "
