Rode NT5 [7/8] Storage

- 7 -

• Please note that whether using NT5s in mono,

stereo, as overheads or for close miking

of instruments, there is no substitute for

experimentation in achieving optimum positioning.

Move the NT5, adjust the gain, and ensure that the

sound you are monitoring is the sound you prefer.

If it is not, make adjustments.

The NT5’s frequency response and SPL handling

enable it to respond well to most musical

instruments and with correct use, we are conﬁ dent

of your satisfaction.

It is important that you listen to the sound source

naturally before you begin mic set up for recording

(ears only). If you don’t like what you hear, you won’t

like what you record!

• After use the NT5 should be removed from its

stand mount, wiped with a dry, soft cloth and

placed in its protective zip pouch or case with the

supplied moisture-absorbent crystals.

• Be sure to place the moisture-absorbent crystals

(supplied) at the head of the microphone(s), so as

to absorb any moisture present.

Eventually this pack of crystals will need to be

dried. This is indicated by the crystals turning pink

in colour.

They can easily be re-used by placing them in an

oven at 100 - 150 degrees celsius for approximately

ten minutes. The crystals will operate effectively

again once they have turned blue.
