Studio Condenser for Recording and Podcasting

The RODE NT1 Signature Series is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone built for studio recording, podcasting and voice-over work. Its HF6 1" true condenser capsule delivers a silky, warm sound character with a smooth frequency response. The cardioid pickup pattern rejects sound from the rear and sides, making it effective in untreated rooms. A durable cobalt finish resists scuffs and scratches during daily use.

Low Self-Noise and High SPL Handling

Self-noise measures 4 dBA, providing an extremely quiet noise floor for critical capture. The microphone handles sound pressure levels up to 142 dB, allowing close-miking of loud sources without distortion. An internal JFET active transformer and bipolar output buffer contribute to the clean signal path. The capsule is internally shock-mounted to reduce mechanical vibration transfer.

Includes Shockmount, Pop Filter and Cable

The package supplies an SM6 shockmount with integrated pop filter, a 20' XLR cable and a dust cover. The shockmount isolates the capsule from stand-borne vibrations while the pop filter manages plosives. Only an audio interface or mixer with phantom power and an XLR input is required to operate the microphone. No additional accessories are needed for immediate session readiness.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the included SM6 shockmount and pop filter to a mic stand without over-tightening?

Thread the SM6 onto the stand, slide the microphone into the cradle, and tighten the knobs just enough to hold it steady; over-tightening can strip the threads or crack the plastic clips.

What part of the NT1 Signature Series will need replacing first after heavy studio use?

The foam pop filter on the SM6 will degrade before the capsule; swap it when it crumbles or no longer blocks plosives.

At what sound-pressure level will the HF6 capsule start to distort during a loud drum session?

The capsule handles up to 142 dB SPL before distortion becomes audible, so close-miking kick drums stays clean.
