DPA Microphones d:dicate 4018FGS Supercardioid Microphone with Twin 120cm Boom and Floor Stand, 20Hz to 20kHz

Because capturing pristine audio is paramount in professional settings, the d:dicate 4018FGS Supercardioid Microphone stands out as a superior choice for stage voice and instrument amplification. This high-quality microphone is part of the esteemed modular d:dicate series, renowned for its exceptional sound reproduction and versatility.

The 4018FGS microphone comes equipped with a twin 120cm boom and a robust floor stand, designed to meet the demanding conditions of TV studios, outside broadcasting vans, theater stages, and concert halls. The floor stand's elegant design features a non-reflective black surface, not only for aesthetic appeal but also for its durability and resistance to the rigors of frequent use in professional environments.

An innovative feature of this floor stand is its integrated shock mounting solution. The thread screw that secures the stand extension and active boom pole is engineered to absorb vibrations, ensuring that the microphone remains stable and free from handling noise. This design facilitates a long boom pole that quickly stabilizes after positioning, allowing for precise microphone placement without the concern of unwanted swinging or movement.

At the heart of the 4018FGS is the d:dicate 4018 capsule, which boasts a supercardioid pickup pattern. This pattern is meticulously crafted to provide a smooth and uniform off-axis frequency response, ensuring that sound is captured with clarity and consistency from all angles. The supercardioid shape maintains its characteristics across different frequencies, delivering a consistent sound color around the microphone. Additionally, the rear lobe typically associated with supercardioid microphones is significantly reduced, offering enhanced isolation and minimizing frequency-dependent peaks and dips.

When it comes to speech, the natural response of the DPA 4018FGS to the human voice is unparalleled. The microphone captures the nuances of speech without the need for post-production equalization to eliminate artifacts. With the 4018FGS, voice intelligibility is exceptional right from the source, making it an ideal microphone for broadcasters, speakers, and performers who demand the highest quality audio reproduction.
