DPA Microphones 2012 Compact Cardioid Condenser Microphone
Great Close Miking for the Live Stage
Sound engineers, producers, and musicians looking for a workhorse microphone to capture precise, natural sound from a wide range of instruments will be delighted by the 2012 from DPA, a cardioid condenser mic that s built to survive the rigors of live stage performances, day after day. Designed to be placed close to instruments, the mic can handle peak SPLs up to 156 dB while the smooth, uniform cardioid polar pattern offers a consistent response across the entire frequency range, helping to ensure sounds are accurately reproduced with precision and nuance.
A Cardioid Mic Ready for a Variety of Instruments
- Equally at home in the orchestra pit, on a live stage, or in the studio, the 2012 is a versatile mic that captures detailed, natural sound from numerous sources, including guitars, horns, percussion, and more.
- The microphone is designed for close-miking and offers a linear frequency response when positioned about 11.8 inches from the source.
- A flat on-axis frequency response with a light presence boost in the 5 to 12 kHz range provides faithful reproduction of instrumental performances.
- The 17mm electret-condenser capsule offers an outstanding transient response to deliver rich, expressive sound and can handle peak SPLs up to 156 dB with a 10% THD, allowing you to use it on loud sources, including snare drums as well as electric guitar and bass cabinets.
- The uniform cardioid polar pattern focuses audio capture in front of the mic and ensures that any bleed from other instruments is a truly accurate reflection of the original sound.
Durable, Performance-Ready Build Quality
- Live performance stages can be difficult environments for equipment, especially for a go-to mic that you ll use on every show.
- The 2012 is built with a thick and robust structure that can stand up to the everyday abuses of touring and performing, with extra-durable surfaces for more graceful aging.
- The compact size makes it easier to optimally place the mic, even on cramped stages packed with equipment.
- The included professional-quality holder provides a firm grip to keep the mic in place.
- Connect the standard 3-pin XLR connector to a wide variety of mixing boards and preamplifiers and power the electret-condenser capsule with 48V phantom power.
Warm Audio Premier Series Balanced XLR Cable (15 )
Presented here with a cable length of 15 , this Warm Audio Premier Series XLR Cable is designed to provide a high-end connection between balanced gear with XLR jacks, such as microphones, outboard equipment, and interface-to-monitoring connections. If you care about the details of your sound onstage and in the studio, use this cable to preserve your signal.
This XLR cable is chock-full of features that enable a top-of-the-line performance, such as gold-plated connectors and a star-quad wiring scheme for superior RFI rejection in the balancing process. Double-Ruessen shielding helps protect against EMI, and a braided outer wrap fights against tangling. To guarantee an optimal performance, Warm Audio partnered with Gotham AG, one of Switzerland s best producers of premium cable.
The Premier Touch
Warm s Premier cables go above and beyond, adding features like gold-plated connectors, a braided outer wrap, four-conductor star-quad construction (helping aid in giving you powerful rejection of RFI), and double-Ruessen shielding (also for increased rejection of EMI).
Braided Premier Wrap
This braided wrap removes the friction that occurs when rubber or PVC rub together, so it s much easier to handle and wrap the cable. No more fighting with a rat s nest of cable spaghetti. The braided wrap also adds an element of strength and reliability, as it helps to protect the cable s PVC jacket from damage due to pinching or binding.
Star Quad Explained
A traditional balanced cable uses three cores of wire to carry audio signalsone shielded core for the positive leg, one shielded core for the negative leg, and a plain outer wrap that functions as the ground. The idea is this: a fully balanced system flips the phase of the signal, merges the positive and negative signals together, and effectively cancels out interference encountered along the cable s length by throwing it out of phase with the audio.
Star-quad construction takes that concept even further by using five cores instead of three. Two cores are provided each for the positive and negative legs, as well as a single ground. This helps to further shield the audio from RFI (radio frequency interference), ensuring an even better performance.
Double-Ruessen Shielding Explained
Double-Ruessen shielding goes further than more traditional techniques in two ways: First, the cable is wrapped with two separate shields. Second, the outer shield is wrapped in a contrary direction to the inner shield, creating a stronger and more complete barrier from EMI for the internal cores.
Gold-Plated Connectors
Gold connectors have characteristics that are advantageous for signal transfer and provide more resistance to corrosion than other metals, making it well-suited for cable connectors.
