DPA ST2011C Condenser Microphone Stereo Pair

The DPA ST2011C is a complete stereo pair; two handpicked cardioid condenser microphones, selected on sensitivity within ±1.5 dB which makes several stereo principles like XY and ORTF easy to obtain. These condenser microphones are acclaimed for its close-miking excellence and hi-SPL handling.

The compact design and controlled directionality of these mics make them an excellent choice for spot mics for classical recording and on-stage close mics for live sound. The foam design in the heavy-duty transportation box allows for fast and easy exchange of the microphone/accessory inlays.

Optimized for onstage use, it has been used on many stages as well as recording sessions. It exhibits a previously unheard blend of clarity, richness and dynamic range. The off-axis response is linear but in a smaller frequency bandwidth. This makes stage separation and gain-to-feedback higher. The mic level is easier to control.

Inside this capsule, two opposite-facing miniature capsules are custom rebuilt. They are placed into a double-diaphragm, one-capsule composition.

This combines the advantages of small capsules with the lower inherent noise achieved from a larger diaphragm area. These capsules provide fast impulse response and large frequency bandwidth.

The capsules are loaded to the supreme d:dicate™ Microphone series preamplifiers instead of the tiny miniature FET ones. This gives the sound more air and precision.
