The SoundField by RODE NT-SF1 ambisonic microphone. Fitted with four true-condenser RODE capsules deployed in a tetrahedral array, the NT-SF1 captures the entire spherical sound field. Every sound, from every direction. It comes with a special mic cable that breaks out to four standard male XLR connectors, allowing you to record four tracks that comprise the complete spacial audio information. In post-production, you can manipulate the sound using the free SoundField by RODE plug-in processor. Adjust the mic's position, directivity, and rotation. Create a full 7.1.4 surround-sound mix or a 360-degree head-track-compliant soundscape for immersive VR video applications. Whether you're recording music or sound effects, the NT-SF1 delivers unparalleled flexibility and sonic quality. The SoundField by RODE NT-SF1 comes in a full kit that includes a 10-pin XLR to 4 x 3-pin XLR breakout mic cable, a custom suspension shockmount, a blimp-style pop shield, a furry wind cover, and an attractive presentation box.

They're perfect for many situations; just clip one to your lapel and talk normally - there's really nothing to it. But what if you don't have a lapel on to which you can clip a lavalier? Lav mics instantly become awkward in the wrong situations. That's what inspired RODE when they created their PinMic. The RODE PinMic has all of the basic benefits of a traditional lavalier, including the low noise and the "set it and forget it" convenience that its omnidirectional pickup pattern provides. Instead of clipping on like a lavalier microphone, the PinMic's base and removable capsule actually pin through the fabric of your clothing. You can even paint the PinMic's capsule cover to match the clothing you wear, turning it into the ultimate discreet microphone.

The Reporter handheld microphone maintains RODE's solid reputation for providing creative solutions for recording and sound-reinforcement challenges. For starters, it's an omnidirectional dynamic microphone.
