LEWITT DTP 640 REX - Bass Drum Microphone
Description
LEWITT DTP 640 REX – Professional Microphone for Bass Drum and Percussion The LEWITT DTP 640 REX is a high-quality microphone designed specifically for capturing dynamic and deep bass drum and percussion sounds. With a unique combination of a dynamic and a condenser capsule, it offers an exceptionally wide frequency response and captures every hit with high precision. With a maximum SPL of 150 dB and a robust construction, it is ideal for both professional studio recordings and live stage performances.
Dual Capsule for Full Sound Spectrum The LEWITT DTP 640 REX features a combination of a dynamic and a condenser capsule in a compact housing. Both capsules are phase-aligned to ensure a clear and detailed sound. While the dynamic capsule captures punch and attack, the condenser capsule delivers deep and warm lows.
Three Selectable Sound Modes for Maximum Control The microphone offers three selectable frequency response settings, allowing precise adaptation to different applications: =//= (Flat Frequency Response - FFR): Both capsules operate with a neutral frequency response. +//= (Dynamic EFR): The dynamic capsule boosts low frequencies, while the condenser capsule remains neutral. +//+ (Dual EFR): The dynamic capsule enhances the 4-6 kHz range, while the condenser capsule reinforces the low frequencies.
Exceptional Precision and Studio-Quality Performance Designed for professional musicians and sound engineers, the LEWITT DTP 640 REX delivers a low self-noise of just 28 dB(A) and a wide dynamic range of 122 dB, capturing both subtle nuances and powerful bass drum hits with precision.
