The ND46 is a high-performance dynamic supercardioid instrument microphone, engineered for precise, balanced sound across a wide range of instruments. Its large-diaphragm capsule is tuned for clarity and punch, delivering a lively, full-bodied tone while maintaining excellent isolation from surrounding sound sources - ideal for drum kits, guitar amps, and more.

A standout feature of the ND46 is its locking pivoting head, allowing quick and accurate mic positioning. Simply push the button, pivot to the desired angle, and release to lock in place. Its shock-mounted capsule minimizes handling noise, and a humbucking coil protects against electromagnetic interference from nearby equipment. Built with a durable die-cast zinc body and dent-resistant Memraflex grille, the ND46 is designed to perform reliably on the road or in the studio.
