The M5 is a studio quality half-inch condenser microphone,

designed for highly detailed sound reproduction. It features a

cardioid polar pattern and end address design, meaning that it will

pick up sound directed into the end of the microphone, and reject

sound from the rear of the mic.

This pickup pattern allows for recording of the desired sound

source while reducing the level of other surrounding instruments,

noises or sound sources.

The M5 is not only ideal for recording music, but is a fantastic

microphone for environmental recordings and indoor dialogue on

ﬁlm sets.

The enclosed pair has been hand-picked by RØDE’s audio

engineering team to be acoustically matched to ensure perfect

compatibility when used in stereo conﬁgurations.

8Powering the M5

Connect all cables before supplying phantom power to the

microphone(s) and never remove the microphone cable while the

power is connected.

The M5 requires 48V DC (P48) or 24V DC (P24) phantom power.

If the mixer or preamp does not contain this phantom power

requirement, then an external phantom power supply is needed.

Some phantom power supplies do not supply the voltage at

which they are rated. If the required voltage is not supplied, the

dynamic range and general performance of the microphone will

be reduced.

We strongly suggest the use of a reputable high quality power

supply. Damage caused by a faulty power supply is not covered

under warranty.

What is Phantom Power?

All condenser microphones require a power source to operate the

internal circuitry of the microphone.

Phantom power is a DC voltage, supplied to the microphone

through the XLR cable, providing the microphone circuit with the

power it requires to operate, without the need for an external

microphone power supply.

Most mixing desks, audio interfaces, and preamp units have a

phantom power switch inbuilt. If your equipment doesn’t have a

phantom power supply, an external one can be purchased and

used in-line between the preamp and the M5. Be sure to check

that your phantom power supply is either P48 (48V DC) or P24 (24V

DC) to operate the correctly.

10 Mounting the M5

The M5 matched pair is supplied with a pair of RM5 stand mounts.

These feature a standard 5/8” thread in the base and a 3/8” thread

adaptor is supplied to provide even greater versatility in mounting.

To mount the M5 in the RM5 place the base of the microphone

at the back of the mount and ﬁrmly push down towards the front

until the microphone clicks into the mount.

The tension of the RM5 can be adjusted using the lever on the side

of the mount.
