DPA 4017B microphone: precision and clarity in every context

Designed for a wide range of professional applications, the DPA 4017B is a supercardioid shotgun microphone ideal for on-camera shooting, uses in sports, ENG, broadcast, cinema and even studio recordings. With a compact design and rugged construction, it is perfect for those seeking high performance in any situation.

High-performance capsule with advanced technology

The 19mm condenser capsule takes advantage of a supercardioid design combined with an interference tube, offering precise directional response and optimized lateral rejection. Through the use of a high-voltage prepolarized armature, the 4017B offers low distortion, low noise floor and authentic sound output even off-axis.

Consistent sound quality in any environment

The 4017B maintains the same tonal characteristics as other DPA microphones, ensuring tonal consistency even in mixed sets. The microphone is resistant to extreme environmental conditions, such as high humidity or extreme temperatures, and delivers clear sound response even in critical contexts.

Built-in intelligent filters

The MMP-B preamplifier includes two filters that are easily activated by rotating rings: a +5 dB shelving filter at 8 kHz to compensate for lost tones at a distance and a low cut to minimize mechanical and wind noise. In addition, there is a fixed filter at 50 Hz to eliminate unwanted noise.
