RØDE NTG3 Shotgun Microphone

The NTG3 is a broadcast-grade shotgun microphone designed for the most demanding shoots that require high-resolution broadcast audio. It features RF-bias technology that yields superior resistance to moisture and condensation, making it suitable for outdoor shoots in adverse conditions. The NTG3 has a rich, warm sound and a tightly controlled polar pattern with exceptional off-axis performance with no coloration. It is also highly regarded for voice-over work, where its natural tone and punch deliver exceptional performance for a wide range of voice types.

• RF-Bias Technology: The standout feature is its ability to withstand high humidity, rain, and condensation, making it superior for, but not limited to, harsh weather conditions, as noted on the RØDE website.
• Sound Quality: It produces a warm, rich sound with a supercardioid polar pattern that is very directional, offering high off-axis attenuation to reduce noise from the sides and back.
• Build: The mic is built from solid brass and is very durable, weighing 163g. It is available in satin nickel or black.
• No Controls: It is a “bare-bones” microphone with no physical pads or filters, requiring 48V phantom power via XLR.
