The RØDE VideoMic NTG is a professional, broadcast-quality, directional video and USB microphone with many unique functions, optimized for film and video audio recordings. Its completely rethought acoustic design, embodied primarily in the circular wave deflector openings, lends the microphone a uniquely transparent, natural, uncolored sound characteristic. With its controlled frequency response, highly directional characteristics and exceptionally low self-noise, the VideoMic NTG competes with the best shotgun microphones on the market.

In addition to excellent sound, the microphone offers the user a uniquely wide palette of useful functions: digital switches for low cut, -20dB sensitivity for attenuation, high frequency emphasis and switching on the safety channel (the microphone produces a signal level reduced by 10dB for the right channel, so that all conditions to create a distortion-free recording between), unique output signal level control potentiometer on the back of the microphone, automatic input detection that allows the microphone to be connected to TRS and TRRS (three- and four-pole, i.e. camera or audio recorder and mobile phone) inputs without a converter, automatic and off which is controlled by the voltage of the connected recorder or camera plug, and a new overdrive indicator LED on the microphone body.

And that's not the end of the many functions. The VideoMic NTG is much more than a video microphone. In addition to being used for cameras, stills and mobile devices, the VideoMic NTG is also a full-fledged USB microphone! When connected to a computer, tablet or mobile phone with the USB-C connector on the microphone, the VideMic NTG turns into a USB audio interface and can be used as a one-channel sound card for recording audio recordings immediately. In USB mode, the 3.5mm TRS small jack output of the microphone functions as a headphone output, and the output signal level control potentiometer functions as a volume control, providing the opportunity to monitor during recording and to listen back to recorded or any other audio material!

Revolutionary acoustic design
The body of the VideMic NTG is completely new. The straight cutouts normally found on shotgun microphones are replaced by circular acoustic ports. The revolutionary new design - which is the result of several months of special testing - provides the microphone with unparalleled acoustic transparency and a natural, uncolored sound.

The Swiss Army Knife of video microphones
Perfect sound is combined with an amazing amount of features, including many new ones. For flexible use, digital switches can be used to activate the cutting of disturbing low-frequency noises, the high emphasis that increases the richness of detail and intelligibility, the sensitivity attenuation and the safety channel function, which guarantees a distortion-free recording.

New are the individual output signal level and headphone volume controls, the automatic input sensor for direct and convenient connection to cameras and mobile devices without a converter, and the overdrive indicator LED.

The VideoMic NTG works with its own built-in Li-ion battery, which provides 30+ operating hours of energy and can be charged via the USB-C connector on the microphone (recharges from a completely discharged state in 2 hours). The microphone can also be operated from an external power source (e.g. power bank) via the USB-C connector.

The VideMic NTG is more than a traditional microphone: it works as a USB microphone when connected to a computer, tablet or mobile device using its USB connector. Perfect solution for one-channel recordings, podcasts, live streaming, online games. In USB mode, the 3.5mm TRS small jack connector works as a headphone output, and the output signal level adjustment potentiometer works as a volume control.
