The CXO4000 Compact XY/ORTF Stereo Holder allows mounting d:dicate™ Microphones with MMP-ER/ES or MMP-GR/GS preamplifiers in both a coincident XY stereo configuration as well as in a near-coincident ORTF combined time and intensity difference stereo configuration.
Two hooks in the middle of the stereo holder are for XY stereo, while the two hooks on the side are for ORTF stereo. It is even possible to use both stereo setups simultaneously in order to compare afterwards in the editing process. You can also use the holder to record in surround sound using one front and one back-orientated stereo setup.
This lightweight holder is a convenient and practical tool for mounting d:dicate™ Microphones on a single microphone stand so they take up very little space. Shock mounting is done with the EXY4000 Extensionfor Compact Stereo Holders and the UA0897 Shock Mount.

In order to receive an authentic reproduction of the total sound field (direct and ambient sound elements) it is extremely important to use microphones that have a linear and clean off-axis response. Likewise, it is critical to use two microphones that are, within a narrow tolerance, identical in frequency response and sensitivity.
The CXO4000 Compact XY/ORTF Stereo Holder is not compatible with d:dicate™ 4017 Shotgun Microphone.
