The NT55 from Rode is a compact condenser microphone designed to accurately reproduce vocals and general instruments in recording and sound reinforcement applications.

The NT55 is a great choice for vocals, guitar, drums, cabinets, and more. The NT55 includes interchangeable omnidirectional and cardioid capsules for even further flexibility.
Omnidirectional and cardioid capsules are included for added flexibility.
0, -10 and -20 dB pad switch enhances headroom and minimizes distortion.
