DPA 4061 On Orchestra - Page 3

Gaston69 · 17th September 2009

For those who would like to hear a comparison (DPA 4060 vs B&K 4006) go the my thread

DPA-4060 vs DPA-4006 The Battle, recording made by Onno and Gaston

JEGG · 19th September 2009

I follow these mic's with interest since a few colleagues own them.

In my most recent perusal of DPA marketing/documents, I saw this as the reason for both 60/61's: The 4060 was developed first, but when body or head worn they often clipped the inputs of the mic transmitters (worn on body). Thus the 4061 was developed to avoid clipping inputs.

I'm sure there are more than a few explanations for these to products-I offer this one simply because it's the last one I've seen from DPA.

Any others notice anything other than a level difference between the two mics, as one of the previous writers has mentioned?

I'll be at AES in the DPA booth (#431) if you'd like an up-close look and chance to hear the mic's for yourself. All fellow slutz are welcome to stop by and chat. Good tidings will be extended to all of my friends here.
