The d:screet™ Heavy Duty Mic
Series contains our toughest miniature microphones. Made for
situations where you require maximum security and where visual size of the mic
is less important. The d:screet™ Heavy Duty Mic Series features a stainless
steel housing, a heavy-duty cable relief and a thick 2.2 mm (0.9 in)
cable.
The d:screet™ Heavy Duty 4071 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone,
Presence Boost, Lo-Sens is an outstanding speech and vocal mic. It makes voice
heard and intelligible. It is also resistant to moisture, extreme temperature
change and humidity.
When recording voices from mic placement on a performer's body, no
frequency below 100 Hz is attractive. For this reason, an acoustical low-cut has
been incorporated in the mic capsule so the built-in preamplifier (and the
wireless system) will have much larger headroom. Furthermore, it removes distant
rumbling from cars, trains, airplanes, etc.
Another equally important consideration is that when placing a microphone
on the body, especially on the chest, the frequency range of the consonants is
damped, resulting in poor intelligibility. The d:screet™ Heavy Duty 4071
Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Presence Boost, Lo-Sens has a built-in
boost to compensate for this loss. Especially for ENG work, this mic is perfect
because almost no ENG mixer leaves any possibility for a compensation of this
kind
