Rode NTK cable

Posted on

Hi

I have a Rode NTK studio condensor mic (which I love) but.....I've lost the cable!!

Anyone out there have one of these they could ring out for me?

I have a length of cable, I have the 7 pin plugs (male and female) but I don't know the wiring schedule. Is it as straight forward as pin 1 to pin 1 etc?
I don't want to risk damaging the mic by guessing.

If anyone can supply the wiring data it would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Here's the manual; some people call the 7 pin XLR a TCD Cable, so if you need a longer one/ different brand what have you, you can search for both and find them online. The wires schedule shouldn't be an issue, since 7 pin cables schedule is uniform.

Good Luck :)

Fortunately I picked up an NTK a little while ago. Can't wait to use this thing. Didn't see the wiring in the manual. But according to my FLUKE it rings out 1 pin to 1 pin, 2 pin to 2 pin, and does so in sequence all the way through pin 7. Hope it helps ya.

Yup, the wiring is 1 pin 1 pin, 2 pin 2 pin, 3 pin 3 pin, etc. etc.

Though I wouldn't recommend making your own wire for it unless you have the XLR end bodies; I wouldn't risk the mic to a loose connection. Too nice of a mic :)

Many thanks to Keith Warren and Bluesdues

the info you've supplied will enable me to get the NTK back in service. I'm off to the shed to start soldering.

Best regards
