DPA Microphones 5015A d:mension™ Surround Kit
- Five carefully matched microphones
- Useful as orchestral main pair
- Peli™ Case transportation and protection
This is a complete Surround Kit with five carefully factory-matched 4015 Wide Cardioid Microphones. Even though the standard tolerances on the 4015s are extremely low, the surround match is even closer.The specially-selected 4015 Wide Cardioid Microphones are matched within ±1 dB on both frequency response and sensitivity from mean of set.
Recording orchestras or other acoustic ensembles sometimes requires a compromise between blending in the room reverberation and a more precise localization. The natural response and dynamic range make this Surround Kit an obvious choice for precise tone quality and wide dynamic range. This is a great solution for AB, Decca Tree or surround main arrays like our Wide Cardioid Surround Array.
The foam design in the heavy-duty transportation box allows for fast and easy exchange of microphone / accessory inlays.
