DPA 4055

DPA 4055 Kick Drum Microphone

The DPA 4055 is a condenser microphone specifically designed to capture the full, rich sound of the bass drum. Its asymmetrical design allows for easy placement both inside and outside the drum. The linear frequency range from 40 Hz to 10 kHz ensures solid low-end response and natural transients, making the 4055 suitable for both studio and live applications. The robust housing and wind-protective foam behind the capsule protect the microphone in harsh stage conditions.
