The Rode NT1 5th Generation reimagines the classic studio condenser with next-level digital versatility and legendary analog performance. Featuring both XLR and USB-C outputs, it seamlessly adapts to professional studios or home recording setups without needing an audio interface. Its 1” gold-sputtered HF6 capsule captures vocals and instruments with warmth, clarity, and silky high-end detail, while the cardioid pickup pattern minimizes unwanted background noise. Inside, a precision-engineered Rycote Lyre suspension system and ultralow-noise electronics achieve an astonishing 4 dBA self-noise for whisper-quiet operation. When used via USB, the built-in Revolution preamp and 32-bit floating-point converter deliver pristine, unclipable recordings with immense dynamic range and sampling rates up to 192 kHz. The mic is powered by phantom power or USB bus power, making it truly plug-and-play. Bundled accessories include the SM6 shockmount with pop shield, XLR and USB-C cables, and a padded pouch. The NT1 5th Gen also integrates with Rode's software suite: Rode Central for DSP configuration and APHEX processing, Rode Connect for podcasting up to four mics, and UNIFY for pro-level streaming and multitrack recording. Combining premium build quality with advanced digital innovation, the NT1 5th Generation is a modern studio essential for musicians, podcasters, and content creators seeking uncompromised sound.
