DPA d:dicate� MMC4017
Shotgun Microphone Capsule |
Product Code:
MMC4017
|
The MMC4017
capsule is part of the flexible DPA d:dicate Recording Microphones series.
Equipped with a highly directional supercardioid pickup pattern, obtained using
a supercardioid design with an interference tube that provides excellent
off-axis rejection, the DPA 4017B combined with the MMP-B preamplifier is a
short and exceptionally lightweight shotgun microphone that truly measures up to
DPA�s impressive reputation for accuracy, clarity, and musicality.
Designed for a broad range of applications, the 4017B is ideal for use with
camera systems, in fixed positions at sports facilities, for broadcast/ENG/film
booming, and even studio recording environments.
Tune out the surroundings
Extensive research and development has been undertaken to optimize the sound
coming from the sides and behind the microphone. Minimizing the often very
un-linear response of a shotgun microphone due to its side lobes is one of the
key accomplishments of the MMC4017. The condenser capsule uses a high voltage
pre-polarized back plate, endowing the shotgun with high output as well as wide
dynamics, extremely low noise and distortion specifications. |
