DPA SC4071

4071 Omnidirectional, Low-cut, Presence Boost

An outstanding speech and vocal mic, the 4071 will make your voice heard and intelligible. Use it for all ENG/EFP and even applications which require small microphones that are resistant to moisture, extreme temperature change and humidity.

When recording voices from mic placement on a performer's body, no frequency below 100 Hz is attractive. For this reason, an acoustical low-cut has been incorporated in the 4071 capsule so the built-in pre amp (and the wireless system) will have much larger headroom. Furthermore, it removes distant rumbling from cars, trains, airplanes, etc.

Another and equally important consideration is that when placing a microphone on the body, espcially on the chest, the frequency range of the consonants is damped, resulting in poor intelligibility. The 4071 has a built-in boost to compensate for this loss. Especially for ENG work the 4071 is perfect because almost no ENG mixer leaves any possibility for a compensation of this kind.

The 4071 lapel mic is available in three colors: black, beige and white.
