A complete supercardioid microphone floor stand solution in the modular d:dicate™ Microphone Series offering a high-quality stage voice or instrument mic.
The floor stand has an elegant and exclusive design with a black, non-reflective surface specifically made to handle the, from time to time, rough life in TV-studios, OB-vans and onstage in theaters and concert halls. The Floor Base has an integrated shock mounting solution. The thread screw holds the Stand Extension and Active Boom Pole. This unique design allows for a long stage microphone boom pole that does not swing, but rapidly stabilizes itself after being positioned.
d:dicate™ 4018FGS Supercardioid Microphone, Single 122 cm (48 in) Boom, Floor Stand
The microphone capsule
The supercardioid shape is frequency independent, securing an identical sound color around the microphone. The usual rear lobe heard on most supercardioids is minimized on this capsule. This makes it much more isolated without sudden frequency dependent peaks and dips.
A truly flexible range
This mic is part of the flexible d:dicate™ Microphone Series. At any time, and with no tools needed, it is possible to transform the d:dicate™ 4018F Supercardioid Microphone into a new configuration. You can combine it with another d:dicate™ or d:facto™ Microphone Capsule or Preamplifier.
Features
The product offers the following features
Low noise and natural voice
Highly directional for high isolation
Most controlled supercardioid shape
Uniform, frequency independent directionality
Ultimate floor mic
Modular flexibility
