It delivers warm, detailed audio, ultra-low self-noise, and high SPL handling while offering both XLR and USB connectivity. Whether you record vocals, instruments, podcasts, or voiceovers, this microphone adapts to almost any workflow with outstanding flexibility.

A Classic Studio Microphone, Evolved

Since its introduction in 1991, the NT1 has earned a reputation for its warm sound and reliable performance. The fifth-generation model keeps the signature tone that creators trust while adding modern recording features that expand its capabilities without changing its familiar character.

Dual XLR and USB Connectivity

The innovative Dual Connect output lets you connect the microphone through XLR to an audio interface or mixer. You can also plug it directly into a computer with USB for studio-quality recording without extra hardware. This flexible design fits both home and professional studios.

Exceptional Audio Performance

The NT1 5th Generation produces smooth, warm recordings with impressive clarity. Improved circuitry lowers the self-noise to just 4dBA while maintaining excellent high SPL handling. Capture quiet details and loud performances with confidence.

Built-In Professional Digital Interface

The integrated audio interface includes the Revolution Preamp™, high-resolution 192kHz A/D conversion, and advanced digital signal processing. These technologies preserve audio quality and provide a complete recording solution inside the microphone.

32-Bit Float Recording

The microphone features a world-first 32-bit float digital output. Record everything from soft speech to powerful vocals or loud instruments without worrying about gain settings. Preserve the full dynamic range and adjust recording levels after the session without clipping or distortion.

Versatile for Every Recording Session

The balanced frequency response, low noise, high SPL capability, and flexible outputs make this microphone suitable for vocals, speech, guitars, piano, drums, percussion, and many other recording applications. It performs equally well in home studios and professional environments.
