Although the housing of the new NT1 is barely distinguishable from that of the NT1-A , the microphone itself has been completely redesigned. Only the grille has been carried over as is. With the NT1, RØDE engineers wanted to achieve a marriage of innovation and tradition: the capsule has been completely redesigned. Codenamed HF6, it is the perfect example of RØDE's fusion of artistic design and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques. Its sonic signature is reminiscent of the best vintage microphones but with an extremely low noise level. Featuring a slightly accentuated midrange, combined with a silky smooth treble and a warm, round bass, the NT1 stands out from all other microphones in its class. In addition, it is the first RØDE microphone to feature a Rycote Lyre shock mount inside the capsule to minimise external vibrations as reliably as possible. The capsule is connected to state-of-the-art electronics, designed to provide the lowest self-noise level in the studio microphone market. The numbers speak for themselves: the NT1 has a self-noise of just 4.5dBA! The mic body is machined from 6061 aluminium and then nickel-plated to resist corrosion. The topcoat is made from durable, military-grade ceramic, using state-of-the-art electrostatic application techniques developed by RØDE to ensure an extremely hard, scratch- and dent-resistant finish. The NT1 is supplied with the new RØDE SMR shockmount. With a unique dual-Lyre suspension system, the SMR cancels out external mechanical vibrations and noise and enhances the effect of the Rycote Lyre system by using a smaller internal Lyre system as a tension element. This keeps each Lyre system in its neutral position where it is most effective at cancelling out vibrations. The SMR shockmount's removable pop filter is made entirely of metal and is extremely robust. Easily washable, it performs as well as it looks and significantly reduces plosive noise. The NT1 is designed and manufactured in Australia, and backed by RØDE's outstanding 10-year warranty.
