Recommended Posts

Hello

 

thinking about purchase a stereo set of DPA 4060 for two purposes

 

as lav mic (obviously) and as stereo ambience recording setup (since i know Chris Watson and other documentary guys uses them)

 

 

can somebody send me sound samples of DPA 4060 and boom???

 

can somebody send me samples of stereo ambience recording??

 

of course there is no need for long samples, few seconds of dialog would be fine

 

 

 

thank you very much

As these are omni mics, this page might be a better guide:

I have a pair of 4060s and 4061s and use them for a whole raft of different purposes. With Rycote Mini WIndjammers, they work well outside. The 4060s are a matched pair, but the 4061s are ex-West-End show and are taped to the outside of a window of our appartment in case anything interesting happens, soundwise. Attached is an MP3 of a little light thunder from the other night, which should give you an idea of the bottom end that's available from these little mics.

 

Regards,

finally i purchased the pair of mics

 

i have been testing the misc this week in a trip to Oslo for a shooting

 

i have been very pleased with the sound recording ambiences, you have some clips in my soundcloud. I have tried the trick with the coathanger and the magnetic clips, it worked great, no handling noise and a good separation for mics, very handy

Had a visit from some bees today & put out the DPA 4060 stealth set.

It got busier (and buzzier) later on and I broke out the ST450 and made a surround recording, which is rather fun and not a little disturbing. A link will follow for any B-Format nuts on the list.

 

Regards,
