Description
The new NT2-A is a professional
large capsule (1 in.) condenser studio microphone with variable
pick-up pattern,variable high pass filter and variable pad.
These features provide greater creative control and versatility.
Three 3-position switches located on the mic body provide
the freedom to step from Figure 8, Cardioid or Omni polar
pick-up patterns; from a flat response to either 80 Hz or
40 Hz high-pass filter and a Pad adjustment of 0 dB, -5 dB
or -10 dB attenuation.
The heart of the NT2-A is the Australian designed and manufactured
TYPE HF1 dual diaphragm capsule. The frequency and transient
response of this new transducer has been voiced to complement
today s modern recording techniques,and yet still evoke the
silky smooth character of the legendary microphones of the
50's and 60's.The NT2-A includes a soft pouch and clip.

Technical
Description
Power
The NT2-A is designed to operate from phantom power to the
P48 standard.
The NT2-A will operate between 44V and 52V applied with positive
polarity to pin 2 and pin 3 of the output XLR connector.
Output Impedance
The NT2-A will operate satisfactorily into a load impedance
as low as 1K. If a load below this is used, the output signal
level will be reduced.
The NT2-A output is balanced between pin 2 (hot) and pin 3
(cold). Pin 1 is ground.
