Rode M5 MP

The M5 is a 1/2" condenser microphone for studio applications with a differentiated and detailed image. It has a cardioid characteristic and only picks up the sound at the front - the sound at the back of the microphone is ignored. The purpose of this directional characteristic is to pick up a specific sound source: Signals in the background and on the sides are noticeably quieter. The M5 is not only suitable for music, but also for outdoor recordings and dialogues in film studios. Their microphone pair has been meticulously selected by the RØDE audio specialists to ensure that both microphones respond almost identically in stereo mode.
