The ND Series instrument models are an excellent choice for both live sound and studio work. Three dynamic models and one small-diaphragm condenser model are available, each optimized for their applications by polar pattern, capsule voicing and mechanical design.
The ND44 supercardioid dynamic drum/instrument microphone is a lightweight clip-on dynamic mic that is ideal for tom-tom and snare drums. The innovative mounting clip ensures quick, secure placement on drum rims, while a compact form factor and low-profile angling head allow for precise, unobtrusive placement in other applications. It is equally capable when deployed on guitar cabinets - either stand-mounted or hung directly over the cabinet.
Each ND Series model is equipped with features that are unique to both its price point and its particular application - all designed to offer superior sound quality, acoustic control and robustness. At the heart of the new dynamic models is a new large-diaphragm capsule design which takes the technology of the original N/Dym capsule to new levels of sonic performance. Vocalists can select a specific ND Series model to provide optimal results according to venue size and/or stage volume. Sound engineers and musicians will benefit from an easy set-up due to innovative mechanical solutions that solve typical instrument mic placement challenges. The series features dent-resistant Memraflex grilles, humbucking coils to guard against EMF noise and shock-mounted capsules to minimize handling noise.
