About DPA Microphones d:dicate 4017B Professional Shotgun Supercardioid Microphone

Take your audio recording to the next level with the DPA d:dicate 4017B Professional Shotgun Supercardioid Microphone with Preamplifier. This high-quality, durable microphone is designed by DPA Microphones, a renowned brand recognized for its innovative and reliable audio equipment.

The 4017B is not just a microphone, but a testament to superior sound engineering. It features a supercardioid polar pattern, a design that ensures highly directional sound pickup. This means it excels at capturing sound from the intended direction while effectively minimizing noise interference from other directions.

With a frequency response range of 20Hz-20kHz, this professional shotgun microphone is capable of capturing a wide spectrum of sound frequencies, delivering clear and accurate audio in any recording scenario. Whether you're recording for film, television, live events, or even in studio environments, the 4017B ensures exceptional audio clarity and musicality.

This microphone is also equipped with a high voltage pre-polarized back plate in its condenser capsule, providing high output, wide dynamics, and extremely low noise and distortion specifications. This means you can expect superior performance in any recording condition.

Despite its powerful performance, the 4017B is compact and lightweight. Measuring just 210 mm (8.3 in) in length and weighing a mere 68 g (2.4 oz), it's one of the smallest and lightest boom microphones available. Its aluminum body is not just durable but also fully immune to RF emission.

The 4017B also features two onboard filters, easily activated via a unique switching ring design. With a simple twist, you can implement a high-frequency boost or a first-order bass roll-off to minimize handling and wind noise. A permanent third-order high-pass filter at 50 Hz effectively removes unwanted low-frequency disturbances.

In summary, the DPA d:dicate 4017B Professional Shotgun Supercardioid Microphone with Preamplifier is a versatile, high-quality audio recording tool that delivers professional-grade performance. Its innovative features and superior sound quality make it an ideal choice for professionals seeking reliable and exceptional audio capture.
