3506A Stereo Kit with 4006A Omnis

This is a complete stereo kit with two carefully factory-matched phantom powered d:dicate™ 4006A Omnidirectional Condenser Microphones. The kit includes mics, windscreens, boom, holders, clips, and much more.

Even though the standard tolerances on our d:dicate™ series are extremely low, a stereo match is even closer. These specially selected d:dicate™ 4006A Omnidirectional Microphones are matched within ±0.5 dB on both frequency response and sensitivity.

For reference stereo recording, there is no better choice than a d:dicate™ 4006A Omnidirectional Microphone. These omnidirectional condenser microphones are linear and true in character. They come as a hand-matched pair that offers the truest capture of stereo sound available.

The d:dicate™ 4006 Omnidirectional Microphone

The 4006 Omnidirectional Microphone Capsule offers total transparency in any recording situation. It picks up incredible detail and depth of sound. The definition of its high-frequency characteristics across a wide range of instruments is impressive. It offers natural sound, high sensitivity, low noise-floor and linear frequency response from 10 to 20 kHz (±2 dB).

The d:dicate™ 4006A Omnidirectional Microphone is a flexible solution. Engineers, broadcasters and musicians alike can achieve clean, natural and precise sound reproduction. This mic is ideal for A-B stereo pairs for symphonic concert hall recordings. It also excels on vocals, for close-miking all types of instruments and as an outdoor interview microphone.

A selection of accessories is available, including acoustic pressure equalizers, a nose cone and interchangeable protection grids. These accessories can acoustically transform the mic. By changing grids, it is possible to gain several unique frequency responses and directional characteristics from the mic.

Furthermore, these accessories will not produce any phase shift, noise or distortion that would otherwise be introduced by an electrical filter.
