Tech Focus: DPA delivers 2017 compact shotgun microphone

 Tech Focus: DPA delivers 2017 compact shotgun microphone
Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Tech Focus: DPA Microphones‘ DPA 2017 shotgun-style microphone, featuring durable construction, ease of use and professional acoustical properties, captures the energy of any application.

DPA says the 2017 measures 7.24 inches long—more compact than similar microphones—and offers versatility, high directivity, clarity and consistency. It adds that the mic is designed to withstand travel and repeated use in harsh environments and can also endure extreme weather and kinetic impact.

According to DPA, the 2017 offers outstanding performance on and off the axis. Its specially designed capsule, paired with a cutting-edge interference tube and microphone grid, makes the main source stand out. As a shotgun design, it has a high degree of off-axis rejection. The company says the heavily attenuated audio is authentic and extremely usable for the entire soundscape. Audio professionals can now pick up accurate, clean sounds from even the most chaotic environments, such as news or sports.

DPA says that the 2017’s low self-noise promises excellent performance in quieter locations and accurately captures the nuance of every sound.
