Shotgun Mic For Film and Video from RODE

By now, we all know that when the multi-award winning RODE company puts its mind to creating a mic, it's going to be solid, rugged, great sounding, and a lot less expensive than microphones that are sonically equivalent. The NTG-1 represents RODE's genius for innovation in the field of designing microphones specifically for video applications.



The new RODE NTG-1 is a lightweight condenser shotgun microphone, which has been specifically designed for professional applications within the film, video, television, voice-over and ENG (Electronic News Gathering) industries. The NTG-1 provides an electronically balanced output stage and operates on 48V phantom power.

The NTG-1 offers wide bandwidth and a controlled polar response coupled with low-noise SMT electronics. The RODE NTG-1 is extremely lightweight making it ideal for mounting directly to video cameras or on boom poles. The NTG-1 comes complete with mount and windshield. The windscreen effectively supresses wind noise when recording outdoors in moderate conditions.

Optional accessories are available for more demanding applications.

RODE NTG-1 Features:
  • Super Cardioid.
  • Frequency Range: 20Hz-20kHz selectable HPF @ 80Hz/12dB octave.
  • Maximum SPL: 139dB
  • Broadcast sound quality.
  • Rugged metal contruction.
  • Condenser microphone transducer.
  • Weighing 105 grams approx. (3 oz).
  • Low noise circuitry.
  • Low handling noise.
  • Supplied with stand mount and zip pouch.
  • Designed and manufactured in Australia.
  • Full 2-year guarantee.
