Ideal for unobtrusive or distant miking applications such as desktop or hanging use, the DPA Microphones 4018ES Supercardioid Microphone is an ultra-compact supercardioid microphone. With a length of only 1.38", the low-key appearance of the mic is as unique as its highly-directional supercardioid pickup pattern with a smooth and uniform off-axis frequency response.
The 4018ES Supercardioid Microphone combines the MMC4018 Supercardioid Microphone Capsule with the MMP-ER/ES Modular Active Cable, XLR, an integrated cable solution with side cable entry. It’s designed for a broad range of music recording and broadcast/ENG/film long-distance miking applications. It’s ideal for use as spot or hanging mic for orchestra recording situations when used with the SM4000-C Suspension Mount, which is included in the package. This allows the 4018ES to be hung from the ceiling and create precision spot miking of orchestra sections or ambience atmosphere.
