The 4017C Compact Shotgun Microphone with MMP-C Preamp from DPA Microphones is for capturing audio. It is used for various audio and video applications such as wedding videography, film, broadcast TV, recording studios, and more. It features a supercardioid lobe-shaped directional pattern and is a pre-polarized condenser microphone.
The 4017C has a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz and is powered by 48V phantom power. It is featured with the compact MMP-C pre-amp so booming applications such as in a car or in low ceiling rooms is uncomplicated. The total length of the microphone is 6.1" and it weighs only 2.5 oz making it great for camera videographers. The 4017C microphone is built with an XLRM output connector. Foam windscreen and microphone clip are included.
- Great for use in the field where off-axis damping is required
- The C amplifier purposely uses a non-transformer approach to preserve sound quality while providing common mode rejection at or above 50 dB
- Excellent RF immunity
- Microphone super-cardioid polar pattern is highly directional
