The Modernized Heir of a Best-Seller
The NT1 Signature Black carries the musical DNA that made the NT1-A famous, while modernizing the electronics to further reduce background noise and offer better tolerance to high dynamics. Its sleek black finish suits both video sets and vocal booths, naturally integrating into any production setup.
Designed for Vocals, Creation, and Broadcast
Singers, beatmakers, podcasters, streamers, and sound engineers will find a reliable tool to capture lead vocals, acoustic guitar, piano, strings, or voice-over. The tight cardioid pattern effectively isolates the source and limits room noise, a decisive advantage in untreated or minimally treated acoustic spaces.
Performance Ready to Mix Daily
HF6 Capsule: Natural and Defined
The 1-inch HF6 condenser capsule delivers full lows, detailed mids, and airy highs for a "ready-to-mix" sound. Its cardioid pattern provides excellent rear rejection, stabilizing proximity effect both near and far.
Exemplary Silence and Wide Headroom
With only 4 dBA self-noise, the NT1 Signature reveals micro-details without unwanted hiss, even with modest preamps. Its ability to handle up to 142 dB SPL allows recording very powerful sources without undesirable distortion.
Immediate Studio Integration
XLR connectivity and 48 V phantom power ensure universal compatibility. The included shock mount and pop filter reduce handling noise and plosives, for clean recordings from the very first session.

Great performance/price ratio. Ideal for allowing quality recordings, voice as far as I am concerned, without spending thousands of euros.
