Description
Extend your horizon with more directivity If you are already a fan of the DPA 4011, here is a very interesting variant with a wide cardioid polar pattern. Powered by phantom voltage, the DPA 4015A provides a larger pickup area, and is a perfect compromise between an omnidirectional sensor and a conventional cardioid microphone. Sometimes a traditional cardioid pattern isn't 'open' enough; for example, to record instruments radiating their sound energy in a complex way. In this case, the extended directivity of the 4015A makes it possible to encompass a wider sound field, thus capturing the full breadth of a moving performance with greater precision.
Unlimited applications Recording orchestras or large instrumental ensembles sometimes requires a compromise between including the natural reverberation of the room and precise location. The wide cardioid type polar pattern (sometimes also referred to as 'hemispherical') covers a wider angle of sound, and is an excellent choice for grand piano, guitar, marimbas and percussion, or as an add-on on bass guitars. different desks of a symphony orchestra. It is equally suitable on vocals, whether dubbing / post-sync / voiceover or vocal mic - areas where its superior richness in the bass complements the timbre of many voices.
Absolutely linear, even off axis The off-axis frequency response of the 4015A remains completely linear - a unique feature of this model, which ensures a sound reproduction of great authenticity. Any crosstalk from a sound source located off-axis of the microphone therefore remains a spectrally faithful reproduction of those sounds, with additional attenuation. The wide cardioid polar pattern DPA microphones easily withstand extremely high sound pressure levels before clipping. The 4015A incorporates a 20 dB attenuator (pad), the switch of which is located in the center of its XLR connector - reducing the output voltage of the microphone to prevent overloading the head amp.
