Key Features
The Rode M5 Cardioid Condenser Microphone, Matched Pair are premium-grade small-diaphragm condenser pnecil mics designed for studio and live recording applications. From drums to choirs, and acoustic guitars to pianos. You name it, these microphones excel on it. Thanks to their low noise and full frequency response, the M5s will relay every source with an incredible degree of accuracy, no nuance will be missed.
You'll find that achieving great sounds is as simple as setting up the microphones, connecting them to your desk or interface and pressing record. Their ultra-discrete design guarantees the finest performances and capture possible. This enables you to get up close to the source for optimised recordings without generating "red light fever".
With no more than 1dB of sensitivity between each microphone, you'll be provided with an ideal stereo representation of each and every source. Whether you work on-the-road, or in-the-studio, be the engineer that gets the call thanks to Rode.

"Given their attractive price, the level of performance and that enticingly long warranty, there’s little not to like about the M5s" - Paul White - Sound On Sound
"The M5s are a perfectly sound matched stereo pair of microphones that would make a decent addition to anyone's audio armoury". - Stephen Bennett - Audio Media
"If you are running to compare these specs to RØDE’s well known NT5 pencil condenser, the nutshell version is that the M5 has a higher noise floor and is a tad less sensitive... but it’s also half the price of the NT5, and in my tests neither of these slightly lower specs was an issue." - Paul Vnuk Jr. - Recording Magazine
