The DPA 4011-DF-G-B01-120 is a high - quality black XLR microphone with a 48 - inch top and bottom gooseneck. It uses the MMC4011 Cardioid Microphone Capsule, which offers great directional quality and attention to detail, making sounds just like the original. The first - order cardioid pickup pattern separates sound sources superbly. It has a flat on - axis frequency response and excellent phase response for faithful sound reproduction. The off - axis response is smooth too, with leakage accurately reflecting the original sound. Due to its modular design, it can be combined with podium booms of 15, 30, 45, 75, or 120 cm. There are different models with various boom lengths available. Technical specs include a cardioid directional pattern, pre - polarized condenser cartridge, a frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, and it requires P48 Phantom Power.

Using the DPA 4011 microphone is easy. First, connect it to your audio device via the XLR - 3M connector. Make sure to supply P48 Phantom Power for full performance. Place the microphone at an appropriate distance from the sound source for the best sound capture. When it comes to maintenance, keep it clean by gently wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures (it works best between - 40F to 113F) and high humidity (up to 90% is okay). Also, ensure the minimum load impedance of 2 k OHM is maintained to avoid any sound issues. When not in use, store it in a safe place to prevent damage.
