NT5 MP : Excellent Mics

I have used these on a number of different sources and am always pleased with the result especially considering the cost. Great on acoustic guitar, drum overheads and general ambient recording. Some would say they were overly bright however I wouldn't fully agree, but this can easily be fixed with some EQ or different positioning.

The NT45 capsules are also a fantastic addition to this mic and are well worth purchasing for ensemble recording.

I have used a pair of NT5 cardioids and NT5 omnis for recording wind bands and brass bands and am always pleased with the result, and I'm more than happy to use these in place of more expensive alternatives.

When you consider they are also backed with Rode's 10 year warranty they are great value for money.
