However, the VideoMic NTG goes beyond previous offerings in several key ways. Instead of a three-position gain-switch, the mic offers a continuously variable control; this lets you select any gain between mic level and headphone level.

Wonder not, good people—it sure is: plug the microphone into your computer over USB and you can record 24-bit/48 kHz audio directly, using the knob to set the levels, and monitoring the output over the 3.5mm jack. Now you need not worry about a preamp when overdubbing ADR. You can plug right into your computer instead.
