Whether you're a filmmaker, vlogger, or podcaster, this package is built to handle a wide range of applications, from indoor studio recordings to demanding outdoor shoots. The VideoMic NTG is a broadcast-quality shotgun microphone designed for camcorders, while the WS11 Windshield ensures that your recordings remain pristine, even in the windiest conditions. With advanced features like an integrated shockmount, rechargeable battery, and exceptional sound clarity, this bundle is designed to provide unmatched flexibility and performance in any environment.

Exceptional Sound Quality for Professional Audio Recording
The Rode VideoMic NTG stands out in the market for its superb sound quality and durability. Engineered with the same acoustic technology found in the acclaimed NTG5 broadcast shotgun mic, the VideoMic NTG offers an incredibly transparent, natural sound. Its supercardioid polar pattern ensures precision recording, focusing on the sound directly in front of the mic and rejecting unwanted noise from the sides and rear. This makes it perfect for narrative filmmaking, interviews, and content creation where audio quality is paramount. With a flat frequency response, you can capture the most accurate sound possible without unwanted coloration.

Field-Ready Features for Versatile Use
Designed with the videographer and sound engineer in mind, the Rode VideoMic NTG features a comprehensive set of controls to help you adapt to varying recording conditions. A switchable high-pass filter reduces low-frequency rumble caused by wind or handling noise, while a high-frequency boost restores detail lost due to windshields or furry coverings. The -20dB pad is ideal for recording loud sources without distortion, and the peak warning light keeps you aware of any potential clipping. A safety channel recording option captures a backup audio track at a lower level to prevent losing audio due to accidental clipping. With these features, this microphone allows for more reliable recordings in a wider range of situations.

Endless Power with Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery
One of the standout features of the VideoMic NTG is its built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, which provides over 30 hours of battery life on a single charge. This is especially important for filmmakers and content creators who are often on location and need a microphone that can keep up with their workday without worrying about battery replacements. The USB charging capability means you can keep it powered even while in use, making it a flexible choice for long recording sessions. This feature sets the VideoMic NTG apart from traditional microphones that require constant battery changes or external power sources.

Seamless Connectivity and Easy Setup
The Rode VideoMic NTG's user-friendly design makes it easy to connect and use with a variety of devices. With an auto-sensing 3.5mm output, the mic automatically detects whether it needs a TRS or TRRS connection, so you never need to worry about adapter cables. It also functions as a full-featured USB microphone, allowing you to record directly into your computer for voiceovers, podcasts, and livestreams. The infinitely variable gain control ensures that you can perfectly match the microphone’s output to your recording device, whether it’s a camera, mobile phone, or external interface. These features allow for smooth, hassle-free integration into your workflow.

Rode WS11 Windshield for Clean Audio in Windy Conditions
No matter how great your microphone is, wind noise can ruin any outdoor recording. That’s where the Rode WS11 Professional Grade Windshield comes in. Designed to fit perfectly with the VideoMic NTG, the WS11 features a dual-layer construction that includes an artificial fur outer layer and an open-cell foam inner layer. The combination of these materials blocks wind and reduces plosives, keeping your recordings clear and free from distortion. Whether you’re recording in the studio or on location, this windshield ensures your sound is pristine, even in challenging environmental conditions. The rubber base further helps protect your microphone from moisture, ensuring reliable performance in the most demanding situations.

Durability and Design for Long-Lasting Performance
Both the Rode VideoMic NTG and WS11 Windshield are built for durability and long-term use. The VideoMic NTG is housed in aerospace-grade aluminum, making it lightweight yet incredibly tough for field use. The Rycote Lyre shockmount included with the mic reduces low-end rumble and isolates the microphone from vibrations, providing clearer sound in noisy environments. Additionally, the WS11’s robust design ensures it will withstand regular outdoor use, protecting your microphone from harsh weather and physical damage. With these materials and engineering, this bundle is made to last, providing professional-grade performance for years to come.
