The DPA 4017B-R Shotgun Microphone is a short, exceptionally lightweight mic with Rycote Windshield that offers an impressive accuracy, clarity, and musicality regardless of the weather and environmental conditions. It features a highly directional supercardioid pattern for clear, directional sound.
The DPA 4017B-R Shotgun Microphone is immune to RF emission and the 19 mm (0.75 in) condenser cartridge is capable of handling peak SPLs of 152 dB before clipping. It also withstands use in very humid environments with ease. Equipped with a highly directional supercardioid pickup pattern, obtained using a supercardioid design with an interference tube that provides excellent off-axis rejection, the DPA 4017B is a short and exceptionally lightweight shotgun microphone that truly measures up to DPA's impressive reputation for accuracy, clarity, and musicality. Designed for a broad range of applications, the phantom powered DPA 4017B is ideal for use with camera systems, in fixed positions at sports facilities, for broadcast/ENG/film booming, and even studio recording environments.
The DPA 4017B Shotgun Microphone features two onboard filters. They are activated via aningenious switching ring design. With a simple twist of two sturdy rings, engineers can implement a high-frequency boost that adds a 4 dB shelf at 8 kHz. This compensates for hi loss when used with windjammers. A first-order bass roll-off below 120 Hz minimizes handling and wind noise. A permanent third-order high-pass filter at 50 Hz effectively removes unwanted low frequency disturbance from handling and wind noise.
This solution is available with Rycote Windshield and suspension system – a fully-packed and ready-to-go solution.
