ND68
▪ Excellent acoustic isolation with deep lows and top-
end punctuation
▪ Large diaphragm dynamic capsule creates a rich and
detailed frequency response
▪ Extremely high SPL handling
▪ Humbucking coil guards against line hum
▪ Memraflex grille resists denting
The Electro-Voice ND68 is a robust, high-performance
dynamic supercardioid kick drum and low frequency
instrument microphone.
The ND68 supercardioid polar pattern provides
excellent acoustic isolation from nearby instruments,
and its voicing characteristics deliver a deep low end,
relaxed midrange, as well as high-frequency content
for aggressive top-end punctuation.
The ND68 dynamic capsule contains a large Mylar
diaphragm, which delivers a rich and detailed
frequency response by combining its large surface
area for tonal balance with its low-mass high-velocity
material for exceptionally fast transient response.
Capable of handling 144 dB SPL, the ND68 will
comfortably manage close micing of high SPL sound
sources.
The ND68 capsule uses a humbucking coil that
attenuates AC hum and electromagnetic interference.
ND dynamic mics can be used with confidence near
speaker cabinets and EMF generating equipment
racks.
The ND68 Memraflex grille is made of a durable tight-
mesh grille wire that withstands extraordinarily-rough
treatment. Your microphone remains protected and
looking good gig-after-gig, year-after-year.
For additional protection, the ND68 capsule contains a
hydrophobic cloth membrane which prevents moisture
and debris from reaching the diaphragm.
