- Includes Shockmount.
- There are 3 settings on body: polar patterns selection, hi-pass-filter and pad.
The NT2000 Variable Pattern Studio Condenser Microphone from RODE is a studio-quality, large diaphragm condenser microphone with continuously variable polar patterns. Its polar patterns selection, filter, and pad are conveniently located on the front of the microphone body for ease of use. The gold-sputtered, dual 1" capsule provides low self-noise (7 dB-A) and a maximum SPL of 147 dB (up to 157 dB with pad fully engaged).
On it's body there are 3 settings: polar patterns selection, hi-pass-filter and pad.
Variable Polar Patterns. Cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure 8 patterns are user selectable.
The Hi-Pass-Filter. This control is sometimes also referred to as a bass-cut because it reduces the selected bass frequency and all frequencies below that. When the dial is in the far left position there is no reduction of the bass frequencies and so the microphone will deliver a full response. When the filter is in the far right position, the level is dropped by 3dB at 150Hz and below, which is certainly audible and will have a direct effect on most sound sources. You may choose any setting between 20Hz and 150Hz to cut the level of the selected frequency and below by 3dB. This control is useful for selecting the cut-off point for potentially offending low frequencies (e.g. traffic noise, floor vibrations etc).
The Pad is useful when recording loud sound source.
