  • Designed specifcally for instruments
  • Supercardioid pattern
  • Unique pivoting head design ensures perfect mic placement for use on drums, horns, acoustic and electric guitar

These mics are small and extremely easy to place. The additional adjustment capability provided by the yoke-mounted capsule assembly is a significant improvement over one-piece designs.

The top half of the grille is easily removed, revealing the dynamic capsule underneath. The coil appears to measure approximately 7/8'' in diameter.

Let me put in a good word for the N/D 468. It’s more or less like a Sennheiser 441 in pattern and tone, but it’s a whole lot smaller so you can get closer in without worrying so much. It’s also a lot cheaper. It’s not as clean as the 441 at high levels but that’s sometimes a good thing.

The Electro-Voice N/D468 is also known as: ND468, N/D468.

The mic was released in 1999.
