Bundled together for your convenience, the Rode NTG2 Indoor Vlogger Kit provides tools useful for vlogging or podcasting indoors. In total, you get a Rode NTG2 Shotgun microphone, a Senal audio interface, and a two-section broadcast arm.
The microphone delivers pro-quality sound of the sort often used in broadcast radio or podcasting pieces. If you re podcasting, speak into the microphone at around a fist s distance from the capsule. For vlogging, set the mic just out of the frame of the shot, and you ll get a relatively clear, clean, and present tone, especially if you ve applied a modicum of room treatment to your environment.
Set the microphone up in the broadcast arm, which clamps easily onto your desk. An XLR cable is threaded through the broadcast arm use this XLR cable to plug your microphone into the Senal interface. Route the interface to your computer with the provided USB cable, and you re good to go.
RODE NTG2 Shotgun Microphone
Capture quality sound indoors or outside for your next indie film, TV shoot, or documentary project with the Rode NTG2 shotgun microphone. With low handling noise, the ability to endure loud sound sources before distortion, and support for battery or phantom power, the NTG2 offers a versatile, cost-effective solution for recording clean dialogue and sound effects.
The NTG2 s elevated sensitivity allows it to produce strong output levels without having to apply extreme gain at your mic preamp. Sonically, the NTG2 delivers consistently clear sound due in part to its gentle rise in high frequencies and its rumble-reducing selectable low-cut filter. The durable and lightweight high-grade aluminum housing is finished in hard-wearing epoxy paint to withstand the stress of location recording.
Quality Sound Capture
The combination of the NTG2 s 11" long body and supercardioid polar pattern yields focused front-facing directionality and enhanced attenuation of sound entering from the sides. Its low self-noise of 18 dBA and sensitive condenser element communicate detailed audio unburdened by the hiss that plagues many low-cost microphones. Plus, its balanced output allows longer cable runs than most camera-mount shotgun microphones.
Battery or Phantom Powered
Thanks to its 3-pin XLR output and operability with 48V phantom power or a single AA battery, the NTG2 is compatible with a variety of handheld audio recorders, field recorders, and mixer adapters as well as built-in preamps on cameras and camcorders.
Ideal for Boompole Mounting
The NTG2 includes a mic clip for easy placement on a mic stand or boompole. Alternatively, mount the NTG2 in the Rode SM4-R shockmount or Rode PG2-R pistol grip (both available separately) to impede the transfer of vibrations in boompole or handheld applications.
Windscreen Minimizes Wind Noise
The NTG2 has a foam windscreen to reduce unwanted wind noise from breezes, fans, heaters, and air conditioners. For maximum reduction of handling noise and wind noise in indoor or outdoor environments, consider the Rode Blimp furry windshield and shockmount suspension system (available separately).
