The NT6 features a detached microphone head (capsule) and body (output stage). A 10-foot (3 meter) Kevlar reinforced cable attaches the two components and enables flexible microphone mounting and placement. The NT6 features a cardioid polar pattern which effectively minimizes noise due to off-axis ambient audio and feedback. A -10dB Pad switch provides added head room, allowing excessively loud signals – such as brass and percussion – to be captured without noise or distortion. A low frequency roll-off switch eliminates low frequency noise and rumble below 80Hz.
- Miniature Detached Capsule and Body: A 10-foot (3 meter) Kevlar reinforced microphone cable join the miniature capsule and output stage. This design provides endless mounting possibilities on instruments, room ambiance capturing and more.
- Swivel Mount: The 2-position swivel mount allows both horizontal and vertical pivoting of the capsule for accurate positioning. Also included are 2 thread adapters – 1/4″ to 5/8″ and 1/4″ to 3/8″ enabling attachment to virtually any microphone stand.
- Cardioid Polar Pattern: The cardioid polar pattern effectively suppresses off-axis audio, reducing residual noise caused by ambiance and feedback.
- Low Frequency Roll-Off: A low frequency roll-off switch eliminates noise and rumble below 80Hz.
- -10Pad Switch: A -10 dB Pad switch provides added head-room for capturing signals that exhibit excessive level and transients. The pad allows these signals to be captured without noise caused by distortion and overload.
