About this product

The R DE NT2-A is a professional large capsule (1") condenser microphone with variable pickup pattern, variable hi-pass filter and a variable pad. The R˜DE NT2-A Large-Capsule Studio Condenser Microphone is a professional, one-inch condenser microphone with variable pick-up patterns, high-pass filter, and pad. 3 - 3-position switches located on the mic body provide selection of figure 8, cardioid, or omni polar pick-up patterns; from a flat response to either 80Hz or 40Hz high-pass filter; and pad adjustments of 0dB, -5dB, or -10dB attenuation.

Includes a soft pouch and clip. The R˜DE NT2-A represents an uncommon technical achievement. Many mics today look similar, with 1" capsules, a mesh head, and a cylindrical body.

While these mics are superb, their smaller production volume makes them expensive. They're hand assembled with parts bought in small quantities R˜DE has changed the industry by pioneering high quality volume production, investing in more design and tooling using the very finest components and capsules. R˜DE still offers the NT2-A at a price that would be impossible using older techniques and technologies. Designed and manufactured at R˜DE's new $10,000,000.00 facility in Sydney, the NT2-A incorporates the latest innovations in transducer design, coupled to R˜DE's surface mount electronic...
