MMC4017 Shotgun Microphone
Capsule
The MMC4017
capsule is part of the flexible DPA Reference Standard
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.

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. |
