RODE NTG2 SHORT SHOTGUN MICROPHONE

Product Information

The AES42 standard, published by the Audio Engineering Society, defines a digital interface for microphones. Microphones conforming to this standard directly output a digital audio stream through an XLR or XLD male connector, rather than producing an analog output. Digital microphones may be used either with new equipment with appropriate input connections that conform to the AES42 standard, or else via a suitable interface box. Studio-quality microphones that operate in accordance with the AES42 standard are now available from a number of microphone manufacturers.

Different microphones can have vastly different impedances and this depends on the design. In passive microphones, this value relates closely to the impedance of the coil (or similar mechanism). In active microphones, this value describes the output impedance of its internal amplifier circuitry.

FAQ

Condenser microphones require a power source, provided either via microphone inputs on equipment as phantom power or from a small battery. Power is necessary for establishing the capacitor plate voltage and is also needed to power the microphone electronics (impedance conversion in the case of electret and DC-polarized microphones, demodulation or detection in the case of RF/HF microphones). Condenser microphones are also available with two diaphragms that can be electrically connected to provide a range of polar patterns (see below), such as cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-eight. It is also possible to vary the pattern continuously with some microphones, for example, the Røde NT2000 or CAD M179.

This makes the MKE 600 much more efficient at capturing distant sources than the omnidirectional mics found in most cameras. That being said, however, keep in mind that shotgun mics do not “zoom” in on sound the way a camera lens zooms in on actors. The most expensive shotgun mics can only capture audio from a distance of six to ten feet, while the less expensive ones only capture sound at a distance of three to four feet. Shotgun mics vs. lavaliers The best ones will also allow you to use them in a variety of settings and situations, including adverse circumstances (such as on a windy day). In this article, we’re going to look at the 7 best shotgun mics on the market today. In 1861, German inventor Johann Philipp Reis built an early sound transmitter (the " Reis telephone") that used a metallic strip attached to a vibrating membrane that would produce intermittent current. Better results were achieved in 1876 with the " liquid transmitter" design in early telephones from Alexander Graham Bell and Elisha Gray – the diaphragm was attached to a conductive rod in an acid solution.
