DPA 4004

• 

 

The 4004 is an omnidirectional hi-voltage (130 V) close miking specialist with an extended on-axis frequency response from 10 Hz to 40 kHz (±2 dB).

The 4004 is a Reference condenser microphone specially designed to handle extremely high sound pressure levels - up to 168 dB SPL before clipping occurs.

It has an unbeatable dynamic range of 124 dB from the noise floor to 1% THD and an extended headroom of 20 dB up to clipping level due to the special hi-voltage powering system.

The 4004 is acoustically identical with the reference microphone Type 4007, but differs in the powering system and the fact that the 4004 has a transformerless output.

4004 is totally transparent and is the perfect choice in all close miking recording situations regardless of the sound source.

Accessories included
UA0639 Microphone Clip
The UA0639 is of a traditional design, but with additional modifications, that ensure a tighter and firmer grip on the microphone, while still enabling it to be secured and removed repeatedly with ease.
UA0658 Windscreen for 4004/07
The windscreen is made of expanded foam (25-30 pores per inch). The expanded foam ensures that the windscreen does not attenuate the higher frequencies more than the tolerance field of the microphone frequency response.
UA0836 Stereo Boom with Holders
The UA0837 is a precision-crafted microphone boom for secure mounting of microphone pairs for A-B stereo recordings.
