DPA 2028: professional vocal microphone for live and touring

The DPA 2028 is designed to deliver natural and transparent vocal reproduction on any stage, from the small club to the big tour. This microphone allows artists to express themselves without compromise, with faithful and defined sound.

Robustness and reliability for the stage

Professional materials for intensive use

Zinc alloy construction and a black chrome finish grille make the 2028 ideal for life on the road. The grille is easily removable for cleaning and maintenance.

Feedback control and off-axis response

Stable supercardioid directivity

The supercardioid pattern of the DPA 2028 ensures strong attenuation of sounds from the back and sides, preventing triggers even in acoustically critical situations. The microphone maintains the naturalness of sounds even off-axis, facilitating the work of sound engineers.

Performance at the highest sound pressure levels

Dynamic range of 117 dB

Capable of handling up to 160 dB SPL, the DPA 2028 ensures flawless performance even with powerful singers or in situations with extreme peaks. The low noise floor also makes it perfect for delicate or whispered voices.

Ready sound without compromise

Minimal EQ intervention

Thanks to the transparency typical of DPA microphones, the 2028 requires very little EQ. This allows the singer to perform naturally and the technician to focus on the overall mix without having to continually intervene on the vocal channel.
