DPA d:facto FA4018V with SL1 Adapter

Engineered especially for vocal performances onstage, the DPA FA4018V is a premium supercardioid capsule that is designed to reproduce every nuance of the human voice transparently, consistently and thrillingly. 

Like traditional supercardioid mics, the DPA FA4018 series enjoys high side- and rear rejection with a minimum of 9 dB attenuation to the sides. Yet it is not bound by the less desirable aspects of the supercardioid like the uncontrolled and nonlinear rear lobes, which can create feedback from stage wedges, because there is a sudden high frequency peak at the backside of the mic. 

The d:facto™ Series has a wider acceptance angle at the front of the mic than most supercardioids. The acceptance angle is identical to a first-order cardioid at ±60 degrees off-center, resulting in the same work field as a cardioid — just with extremely high and uniform side and rear damping. 

Includes SL1 Adapter to work with compatible Shure wireless handheld transmitters. 

Key Features:

• Durable modular construction 
• High gain-to-feedback 
• Uniform supercardioid directionality 
• Excellent off-axis rejection 
• Extreme SPL (Sound Pressure Level) handling 
• Low handling noise 
• SL1 adapter for use with compatible Shure* wireless transmitters
