DPA 4018ES-T
With a length of only 3.5 cm, the 4018ES-T super-cardioid microphone has a highly-directional supercardioid pickup pattern with a smooth and uniform off-axis frequency response. This microphone is part of the flexible d:dicate microphones series. This condenser microphone is designed for a broad range of music recording and broadcast/ENG/film long-distance miking applications. It can be used for booming, dialogue, interview and table or spot-recording use. The mic also offers superb expandability through modular accessories. It is ideal for unobtrusive or distant miking such as desktop use.
The microphone capsule: the supercardioid shape is frequency independent, securing an identical sound color around the microphone. The usual rear lobe heard on most supercardioids is minimized on this capsule. This makes it much more isolated without sudden frequency dependent peaks and dips.
A truly flexible range: this mic is part of the flexible pencil recording microphone series. At any time, and with no tools needed, it is possible to transform the 4018ES-T supercardioid microphone into a new configuration. You can combine it with another d:dicate or d:facto microphone capsule or preamplifier.
