SoundField by RØDE

SoundField invented the ambisonic microphone, A-Format™ and B-Format™ audio and revolutionised 3D audio production. Now RØDE has taken it a stage further and have used their advanced manufacturing techniques to deliver broadcast quality precision microphones at accessible prices.

The NT-SF1 records the entire spherical sound field. Every sound, every direction, perfectly. This means that later, in post-production, you can manipulate the sound. Alter the mic directivity, position and rotation. Create a full 7.1.4 surround mix. Create a fully head-tracked 360-degree soundscape for immersive video. Whether recording opera, a swamp or a feature film, the NT-SF1 offers unparalleled quality and flexibility.

TF-45C Capsule

The NT-SF1 uses the new Rode TF-45C condenser capsule. This completely new design breaks new ground in precision manufacturing. Machined to tolerances of less than 1 micron in state of the art fabrication facilities it delivers breathtaking clarity, sonic purity and exceptionally low noise.

The SoundField by RØDE Plugin processor

The new NT-SF1 is perfectly matched to the plugin ambisonic processor. The plug in has been designed to offer the most accurate spatialisation and sound reproduction when used with the NT-SF1.

Applications

The NT-SF1 is the perfect mic for a range of applications, from music recording through to capturing 3D soundscapes for VR applications. As productions increasingly require the use of surround or multi-channel spatial reproduction, the NT-SF1 should be part of every sound recordist's arsenal.

Accessories

The NT-SF1 comes in a full kit, including custom suspension shockmount, blimp-style windshield with furry wind cover all shipped in a beautiful presentation box.
