It&#8217;s also incredibly directional, even at low frequencies &#8211; that means you&#8217;re sure to capture the audio you need, without off-axis low-frequency sounds clouding your recording. The NTG-8 is very moisture-resistant, and its low handling noise and self-noise properties make it great for film and broadcast applications in the field. It&#8217;s a highly sensitive mic with &#8220;you are there&#8221; sound quality and excellent RF interference rejection. A water-resistant aluminum storage cylinder, windshield, pouch, and mic clip are included with the Rode NTG-8 shotgun condenser microphone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rode NTG-8 Condenser Shotgun Microphone at a Glance:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Built for any environment<\/li>\n<li>Lightweight, low-noise<\/li>\n<li>Excellent directionality, even at low frequencies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Built for any environment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using a technology known as RF-bias the Rode NTG-8 is almost completely resistant to moisture, making it ideal for recording in any demanding environments where condensation is an issue. Be it in a tropical rainforest, arid desert or sub-zero snowstorm, the NTG-8 can be relied on to faithfully record audio where traditional condenser microphones would fail.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lightweight, low-noise<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In addition to its robust properties, the NTG-8 combines very low weight (less than 1 lbs.), a durable anti-glare finish and incredibly low handling and self-noise (13dBA) to become RODE&#8217;s premier A\/V microphone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Excellent directionality, even at low frequencies<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Unintended off-axis sounds can ruin an otherwise great recording, and low frequencies are the most likely to intrude (because they travel farther than high frequencies with the same energy). The Rode NTG-8 shotgun mic is exceptionally directional, even at low frequencies. That means when you&#8217;re focusing on a sound source, you&#8217;re less likely to pick up rumble from the highway, wind, ocean, or whatever.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rode NTG-8 Shotgun Condenser Microphone Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Designed to withstand adverse environmental conditions<\/li>\n<li>Very low self-noise<\/li>\n<li>Very directional, even with low frequencies<\/li>\n<li>Extremely low handling noise<\/li>\n<li>High level of immunity to radio frequency interference<\/li>\n<li>True condenser (external RF biased)<\/li>\n<li>High sensitivity<\/li>\n<li>Superior broadcast sound quality<\/li>\n<li>Designed and manufactured in Australia<\/li>\n<li>Water resistant aluminum storage cylinder, windshield, zip pouch, and microphone clip included<\/li>\n<li>Requires +48V phantom power<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Tech Specs<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"table\">\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Microphone Type:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\"> Shotgun Condenser (external RF Biased)<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Polar Pattern:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\"> Supercardioid<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Frequency Response:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\">40Hz-20kHz<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Max SPL:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\">130 dB<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Output Impedance:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\">25 ohms<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Signal to Noise Ratio:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\">81dB<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Self Noise:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\">13dB (A weighted)<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Length:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\">22&#8243;<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Connector:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\"> XLR<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Weight:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\">0.76 lbs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Power:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\"> Phantom Power<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"table__row\"><strong class=\"table__header\">Included Accessories:<\/strong><span class=\"table__cell\"> Shock Mount, Aluminum Carry Case, Windscreen<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Based on R\u00d8DE&#8217;s award winning NTG3 shotgun microphone, the NTG8 is a broadcast quality RF-bias shotgun microphone that exhibits increased directionality across a wide frequency response range. This makes the NTG8 the perfect microphone for film, television, sports and outdoor broadcasting, live performance, and any professional distance miking application. Like the NTG3, the NTG8 features low self-noise, natural sound without coloration both on and off-axis, and RF bias technology to ensure that it is almost completely resistant to high humidity environments which could cause other condenser microphones to fail. The NTG8 is finished in matte black and supplied with a specially designed shock mount (SM8) that is engineered to provide excellent handling noise isolation, cable management and versatile mounting options for the microphone. A rugged weatherproof aluminum cylinder is also included, providing ultimate protection for the microphone when in transport or storage. The WSNTG8 windshield completes the package, providing light environmental protection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7318,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"product_cat":[262],"product_tag":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/7315"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7315"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7318"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7315"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=7315"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.megsstarmusic.com\/megstarbkp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=7315"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
