About DPA Microphones 3511A

Why settle for less when you can experience the superior audio quality offered by the d:dicate 3511A Stereo Kit This comprehensive kit includes two meticulously factory-matched 4011A cardioid microphones, each fine-tuned within +/-1 dB on frequency response and sensitivity across the entire microphone frequency bandwidth.

The 4011A cardioid microphones are renowned for their first-order cardioid pickup pattern, delivering exceptional separation between sound sources. This makes them an ideal choice for spot miking in diverse live music settings, from the pulsating energy of rock 'n' roll to the refined elegance of opera.

Whether you're capturing the intimate nuances of an acoustic guitar, the resonant tones of a grand piano, the dynamic range of percussion, the subtle breath of wind instruments, or the emotive power of vocals, the 4011A cardioid microphones are up to the task. They are equally adept at spot-miking symphonies, ensuring every note is faithfully reproduced.

These microphones are designed to handle incredibly high sound levels, featuring a 20 dB pad switch in the center of the XLR connector for output attenuation. The flat on-axis frequency response and excellent phase response ensure a true-to-life reproduction of the original sound.

The off-axis response is equally smooth, ensuring any sound leakage is an accurate reflection of the original, albeit attenuated according to the first-order cardioid pickup pattern. This results in a more intense "being there" sensation with the DPA 4011A than with any other cardioid microphone.

Selected for its versatility, the 4011A is a clean-sounding, colorless microphone that can be used in a wide range of applications, limited only by the user's imagination. Its linear frequency response, even off-axis, allows for standard set-ups such as ORTF and XY.

Capable of handling very high SPL, the 4011A microphones are suitable for both close-miking and more distant placement. They are a popular choice for jazz or pop piano recordings, drum overheads, or as an orchestra section stereo pair.

The d:dicate 3511A Stereo Kit also includes 2x UA0897 Shock Mounts, 2x UA0896 Foam Windscreens, 2x UA0961 Mic Holders, and a DUA0019 Spacer, providing you with all the essentials for a professional audio recording setup. Experience the difference in audio quality with the d:dicate 3511A Stereo Kit.
