The DPA ST4011A Stereo Microphone Kit contains two carefully factory-matched first order cardioid microphones offering an exceptionally linear frequency response and an extremely high SPL handling capability. Ideal for close recording of piano, the kit includes a heavy-duty Peli case for transportation.
The DPA ST4011A Stereo Microphone Kit's specially selected DPA 4011A microphones are matched within ±1 dB on both frequency response and sensitivity. The DPA 4011A Cardioid Mic is renowned in recording studios and live applications around the world as an exceptional mic. State-of-the-art components have been carefully selected to provide optimal neutrality, accuracy and extremely low distortion. It is equally suitable for close-up work on acoustic guitar, grand piano, overheads, percussion, wind instruments and vocals as it is for spot-miking symphonies. It can handle incredibly high sound levels and even includes a 20 dB pad switch in the center of the XLR connector to attenuate the output of the microphone.
The DPA 4011A Microphones comes with an MMP-A Microphone Preamp, an ultra-transparent, transformerless preamp with active drive for impedance balancing. The foam design in the heavy-duty transportation box allows for fast and easy exchange of microphone/accessory inlay.
