DP-4011A
The DPA d:dicate 4011A Cardioid Microphone is an upgraded version of the classic DPA 4011 - renowned in recording studios and live applications around the world as an outstanding mic with optimal neutrality, accuracy, and extremely low distortion. Superb separation between sound sources when used as a spot mic on literally any style of live music. The 4011A is equally suitable for close-up work on acoustic instruments and vocals as it is for spot-miking symphonies. It can handle incredibly high sound levels and includes a 20 dB pad switch. The sensation of “being there” will always be more intense with the DPA 4011A than with any other cardioid.
