DPA Microphones MMC4018 Supercardioid Microphone Capsule

Precision Supercardioid Microphone Capsule for Professional Audio
The DPA MMC4018 Supercardioid Microphone Capsule is a modular solution designed for capturing high-quality audio in a variety of professional settings. Whether used for broadcasting, podiums, interviews, or film production, this capsule delivers crisp, natural sound with excellent off-axis rejection. Its frequency-independent supercardioid pickup pattern ensures accurate, detailed recordings with minimal coloration, making it a reliable choice for demanding audio environments.

Supercardioid Pickup Pattern for Focused Sound Capture
This capsule features a supercardioid pickup pattern that offers excellent directionality and off-axis rejection. Unlike many traditional supercardioid microphones, the MMC4018 minimizes unwanted rear lobes, reducing interference from surrounding noise. This makes it ideal for applications requiring precise sound isolation, such as interviews, podium speeches, or boom-mounted dialogue capture in film and television production.

Versatile for Multiple Applications
Designed for versatility, the MMC4018 capsule excels in podium and table-mounted setups, hanging configurations for orchestral recording, or on a boom pole for location sound capture. Its smooth off-axis response ensures a natural tone even when capturing multiple speakers or moving sound sources. Whether used in a conference hall, film set, or recording studio, this capsule provides professional-grade audio with minimal distortion.

Low Noise and High Sensitivity for Clean, Natural Audio
With a low noise floor and high sensitivity, the MMC4018 ensures that every detail of the source audio is captured with precision. The capsule maintains clarity even in quiet environments, making it an excellent choice for voice-over work, documentary filmmaking, and critical dialogue recording. Its wide frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz ensures full-spectrum sound capture, preserving both the depth and nuance of the original sound.

Modular Compatibility with DPA Preamp Systems
As part of the DPA d:dicate™ modular series, the MMC4018 is compatible with a range of preamps, including the MMP-A, MMP-B, and MMP-C. This flexibility allows users to tailor their microphone setup to the specific requirements of their recording environment, whether they need a high-end studio preamp, a compact portable solution, or a preamp with integrated filters for added control.

Durable Construction for Professional Use
Built for durability, the MMC4018 is designed to withstand rigorous professional use. Whether in a controlled studio environment or a demanding field production, this capsule maintains consistent performance. The rugged build ensures long-term reliability, making it an essential tool for professionals who require dependable, high-quality sound capture.
