M3
Multi Powered 3/4” Condenser Microphone
NTG8
Precision Broadcast-Grade Long Shotgun Microphone
• Highly directional polar response
• Natural sounding audio both on and off-axis
• Designed to withstand adverse environmental
conditions
• Extremely low handling noise
• High level of immunity to radio frequency
interference
Based on RØDE’s award winning NTG3, 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 fi lm, television, sports and outdoor broadcasting, live performance, or indeed
any professional distance miking application.
Like the NTG3, the NTG8 features low self noise, natural sound without colouration both on and off-axis, and RF bias technology
to ensure that it is almost completely resistant to high humidity environments where other condenser microphones can fail.
