DPA Microphones 4051
Compact Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone, Side Cable

4051

The DPA 4051 is an omnidirectional phantom powered (P48) condenser microphone using the same type of cartridge as the famous DPA 4006, but is preamplified using a build-in ultra-small thick-film mounted FET-preamplifier, which enables the cartridge to be mounted on a extremely compact microphone housing. The 4051 has its cable (3 m as standard) mounted at 90° to the microphone axis, which mechanically is perfect for situations where the microphone needs to be mounted directly on the musical instrument or suspended to record an audience.

The linear on-axis frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz (±2 dB) together with the ultra-small design makes Type 4051 the perfect choice for all kinds of on-camera or on-stage use where high definition audio is of high priority.
