Introduction

I want to thank you for your purchase of the

NT1000 large diaphragm microphone.

With its ultra low 6 dBA self-noise and transformer less
SMT circuitry, the RØDE NT1000 exhibits exceptional
performance when recording both vocals and
instruments in the studio.

Voiced for ‘application versatility’, the NT1000 has been
hailed by many as the ultimate drum over-head and
grand piano mic selection.

The NT1000 is also equally at home as a fi rst call
vocal mic. With its Australian made 1” HF-2 capsule
incorporating internal shock mounting, the NT1000
boasts a 134 dB dynamic range and 140 dBA SPL
capabilities as well as a 20 Hz - 20 kHz frequency
response.

Please take the time to visit www.rodemic.com and
register your microphone for a full ten year warranty.

While there you can view studio tips and techniques, as
well as browse the comprehensive range of accessories
