## Long description

The RØDE NTG-3B is a professional super-cardioid shotgun microphone designed for film, television, ENG and other broadcast applications that require high-resolution audio. Machined from solid brass and finished in matte black, the NTG-3B combines robust construction with low weight and is manufactured in Australia. It uses RF-bias technology for high resistance to moisture and comes with a weatherproof aluminium storage cylinder. The microphone connects via XLR-3 and provides a frequency response of 40–20,000 Hz, a sensitivity of −30 dB and a high dynamic range suitable for demanding recording environments.
Advantages
The NTG-3B delivers a warm, full-frequency audio character with a precise super-cardioid polar pattern that captures focused sound on-camera or on a boom pole. RF-bias circuitry makes the microphone highly resistant to moisture and condensation, extending reliable operation in humid or challenging environments. Solid-brass construction in a matte black finish offers mechanical durability while keeping the microphone lightweight for field use. The included sealed aluminium storage cylinder provides additional protection during transport and storage.
Suitable for
Film and television production
Electronic news gathering (ENG)
Location sound recording with boom operators
Broadcast and documentary audio capture
Live stage situations requiring directional capture

How to use
Mount the NTG-3B on a suitable shock mount or boom pole and connect it to a mixer or recorder using a balanced XLR cable. Aim the microphone toward the sound source, keeping the super-cardioid axis directed at the subject for optimal rejection of off-axis noise. Use low-cut filtering on your recorder or console if required to reduce low-frequency rumble. Store the microphone in the supplied sealed aluminium cylinder when transporting to protect it from moisture and impact.
Usage recommendations
The NTG-3B is particularly effective in humid or condensation-prone environments due to its RF-bias design; for best results, allow the microphone to acclimatise when moving between temperature extremes and keep the storage cylinder sealed during transport.
