| Modular 
flexibility The MMC4015 capsule is part of the flexible DPA d:dicate Recording Microphones 
series. The 4015A with the MMP-A preamplifier suits acoustic instruments and 
voices with rich and open sound, where the 4015C with the MMP-C compact 
preamplifier is an excellent spot mic as a fill-in between an omni and a 
cardioid � and easier to position.
 
 Expand your horizon with a wider pattern
 If you are already a DPA 4011 devotee, you will discover an exciting alternative 
in our wide cardioid microphones. The MMC4015 wide cardioid capsule differs in 
its polar pattern and is the perfect fill-in between an omni and a more 
directional microphone.
 
 Sometimes a conventional cardioid pattern just isn�t quite open enough, such as 
when recording instruments with complex radiation patterns. In those instances, 
the generous polar pattern of our wide cardioids allows you to pick up a broader 
sound field and more accurately capture the full breadth of a stirring 
performance.
