The black d:screet Film Kit with Omnidirectional 4071 Presence Boost Microphone from DPA includes a SC4071 miniature microphone with reinforced cable relief, ten double-sided tapes for concealment fixtures, ten double-sided mic tapes, and a sturdy storage case. It can be used to capture audio for speech and vocals applications, in film or TV productions, and where the microphone needs to be invisible.
The mic features a 5 dB soft boost in the 4 to 6 kHz frequency range for added presence and intelligibility on vocals. When recording voices using 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, the filter helps remove distant rumbling from cars, trains, airplanes, etc. The SC4071 is also resistant to humidity and moisture as well as extreme temperature change. The microphone cable terminates with a microdot connector and requires an adapter (sold separately) for compatibility with wireless bodypack transmitters.
