5. Ṣiṣẹ gbohungbohun
5.1 Àpẹẹrẹ Polar
The Rode NT1000 features a Unidirectional (Cardioid) polar pattern. This means it is most sensitive to sound coming from the front of the microphone and rejects sound from the sides and rear. This characteristic is beneficial for isolating the desired sound source and minimizing background noise.
5.2 Ipò Tó Dáa Jùlọ
For best results, position the microphone directly in front of the sound source. Experiment with distance and angle to achieve the desired tone and clarity. For vocals, a distance of 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) is often a good starting point. For instruments, placement will vary depending on the instrument and desired sound.
