Compact, Precision Wide Cardioid Condenser


»  View entire DPA Microphones range

If you are already a DPA 4011 devotee, you'll discover an exciting alternative in DPA's wide cardioid microphones. The DPA 4015C, with its wide cardioid polar pattern, is the perfect fill-in between an omni and a more directional microphone.

Sometimes a conventional cardioid pattern just isn’t quite open enough, such as when recording instruments with complex radiation patterns. In these cases, the generous polar pattern of a DPA Compact Wide Cardioid allows you to pick up a broader sound field and more accurately capture the full breadth of a stirring performance.

The DPA 4015C Compact Wide Cardioid:

  • Low profile – wide pickup area
  • Natural reproduction
  • Directional ambience pickup
  • Exceptional for vocals

Limitless Applications...

Recording orchestras or other ensembles sometimes requires a compromise between blending in the room reverberation and a more precise localization. The wide cardioid (also known as hemispheric) design covers a greater sound angle and is an excellent choice for grand piano, guitar, marimba, and percussion, or as a spot mic for groups in a symphony orchestra. Likewise, it's an excellent speech, dubbing, or vocal mic as its enhanced richness on the bass end nicely compliments many voices.

Completely Linear - even off-axis...

The off-axis characteristics of the DPA 4015C are totally linear, a unique quality when it comes to authentic sound reproduction. Any leakage that occurs from off-axis sound sources is still a faithful reproduction of these sounds, just softly attenuated.

Small - yet wide...

Visually discreet, the 4015C Wide Cardioids represent an indispensabe low-profile solution for audio engineers and set designers alike. Tremendously precise and natural sounding, DPA  Compact Wide Cardioids will certainly exceed expectations when used on choirs, percussion setups, grand pianos, wind instruments, and much more.
