Electro-Voice ND44 Dynamic Tight Cardioid Instrument Microphone

The Electro-Voice ND44 Dynamic Tight Cardioid Instrument Microphone boasts incredible acoustic control and is designed to accurately capture the aggressive and punctuated sound that percussion and amplifier cabinets produce.

The ND44 utilises a low-profile pivoting head with dual pivot-points, providing a quick and easy solution to the challenges of microphone placement. This versatile instrument and drum microphone features a large Mylar diaphragm dynamic capsule with a tight cardioid polar pattern for superior isolation. The large-diaphragm design offers incredible detail with a rich, clear and balanced frequency response.

The ND44 is constructed with a robust die-cast zinc handle with a dent-resistant Memraflex grille and an ABS-Polycarbonate head. The capsule also contains a hydrophobic cloth membrane, preventing moisture and debris from reaching the diaphragm and causing potential damage.

The ND44 is designed to deliver exceptional sound quality with every single performance thanks to its reliable and versatile architecture.
