DPA Microphones 4052
Compact Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone, Rear Cable

4052

The DPA 4052 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 4052 has its cable mounted behind the microphone axis for situations where the microphone needs to be suspended from its own cable.

The linear on-axis frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz (±2 dB) together with the ultra-small design makes DPA 4052 the perfect choice for all kinds of on-camera or on-stage use where high definition audio is of high priority. These Compact Omnis are extremely popular as A-B Stereo pairs in concert halls where the beautiful architecture has to go hand in hand with quality recordings.
