Pleasantly surprised by its natural sound
I did a fair amount if investigating about the ideal mic to use for a goodnatyral representative sound for my acoustic guitar. I already had a pair of NT5's. Apart from spending a good deal more on a Neumann or such like, this capsule was reccemendedd by a good studio engineer, and had a few people backing its quality, and as i trust Røde, and have an NT K2 and a NT2a, already I can vouch for their quality.
I Was surprised just how different the sound with the omnidirectional pattern, this is obviously dependent on the room sound, as the mic picks up the sound of the room.
The sound was less nasal then a cardioid pattern, and thus pleased my ears with regards to my guitar sound. I am looking forward to trying it out on other sources.
I would reccomend this to anyone even those with more money to spend, as i feel the quality far outweighs the price, especially if you already have the NT5 mic.

Great omni-capsule
These capsules are great. Very quick to change. They come in a nice little metal box with foam insert to protect the heads when you are not using them on the actual mics.
Ive used these with the NT5 to record orchestras and I am very pleased.
