The RØDE's NTG8 moisture-resistant shotgun condenser microphone features ultralow-noise circuitry, improved immunity to radio-frequency interference, and reduced handling noise decrease the need for postproduction audio repair and restoration. Its switch- and dial-free design allows you to rapidly set up and concentrate on the sound rather than fumbling with different mic settings. The NTG8's ultrahigh sensitivity enables it to provide strong output levels without the use of excessive gain at the mic preamp. Because of its lengthy interference tube, the NTG8 produces natural on- and off-axis sound.
