Whether indoors or outdoors, the Rode NTG4+ shotgun microphone captures high-quality sound with precision. Low-noise circuitry, digital pad, and frequency controls, and reduced handling noise make this microphone ideal for audio post-production.
The NTG4+’s high sensitivity produces strong output levels without requiring excessive gain from your preamp. The mic delivers a warm sonic profile, thanks to a gentle dip in the high frequencies and a selectable low-cut filter to eliminate rumble. A switchable treble boost adds clarity when needed.
Superior Sound Quality
An earphone that captures sound from the front while minimizing side noise with a 10.9″ body and supercardioid polar pattern. Low self-noise of 16 dBA and a sensitive condenser element make it possible to capture detailed audio without hiss. Its balanced XLR output allows for longer cable runs than most shotgun microphones.
Flexible Power Options
Up to 150 hours of runtime are possible with an internal rechargeable lithium battery. The micro-USB port and included USB cable allow for rapid and easy charging in just two hours. Several camcorders and cinema cameras have built-in preamps that can be used with the 3-pin XLR output.
Customizable Tone with Digital Controls
Digital switches provide easy access to mic settings, which are retained even when the microphone is powered off. The 75 Hz low-cut filter reduces noise from sources such as air conditioners and traffic, while the +6 dB treble boost enhances clarity, ideal for environments with minimal high-frequency noise. When recording loud sources, engage the -10 dB pad to avoid distortion.
Ideal for Boompole Mounting
The NTG4+ features a lightweight metal body and includes a mic clip for easy attachment to mic stands or boompoles. For additional versatility, mount it in the Rode SM4-R shockmount or Rode PG2-R pistol grip (both sold separately) to reduce vibrations during boompole or handheld use.
Minimize wind noise.
A foam windscreen is included to reduce unwanted wind noise from fans, breezes, and air conditioners. For greater wind and handling noise reduction, especially in demanding outdoor environments, consider the separately available Rode Blimp furry windshield and shockmount system.
