The DPA Microphones 2015 is a pre-polarized condenser microphone designed for engineers and production teams who need to capture a full instrument group — drum kits, string sections, or acoustic ensembles — with a single, well-placed mic. Its wide cardioid polar pattern gathers a broad acoustic image without the phasing artifacts or inconsistent off-axis coloration that plague standard cardioids in wide-spread miking applications.
Live sound engineers will appreciate the compact 19mm body, which allows positioning in tight overhead or stand configurations without blocking sightlines or interfering with stage traffic. The reinforced construction holds up in touring and repeated-setup environments where durability under pressure is non-negotiable. Impedance-balanced output with Active Drive supports cable runs up to 100 meters, giving FOH engineers flexibility in stage-to-console routing without signal degradation.
For studio or broadcast applications, the 2015's low self-noise and extended dynamic range make it a precise tool for room miking and ensemble capture where transparency and accuracy matter. P48 phantom power compatibility ensures compatibility with any professional console or mic preamp, and the XLR-3M connector with defined pin assignment integrates cleanly into existing analog signal chains.
