Product Information

Full details

The DPA 2061 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone is an ideal choice for broadcast professionals, theater performers, and public speakers who require high-fidelity, natural audio quality in a low-profile package. Its primary benefit is the consistent, natural sound reproduction and excellent speech intelligibility that requires minimal EQ adjustments. While it offers superior durability and moisture resistance, users should note that as an omnidirectional microphone, it is more susceptible to capturing ambient background noise compared to directional alternatives.

FAQs

Does the DPA 2061 work with phantom power?

The microphone is designed to work with the voltage supplied by standard wireless bodypack transmitters. For wired XLR use, a specialized adapter may be required.

Can this microphone be submerged in water?

No. While it is water-resistant and sweat-repellent, it is not waterproof and should not be submerged or exposed to direct water jets.

Is the cable replaceable?

The cable is integrated into the microphone assembly for durability and consistent signal integrity; please contact professional service for repairs.

What is the primary benefit of the omnidirectional pattern?

It provides a more natural sound and is far less sensitive to wind noise and pop sounds compared to directional microphones.

Will this work with my non-TA4F wireless system?

You may need an adapter to convert the TA4F connection to the pin configuration required by other wireless transmitter brands.

Troubleshooting

Low output volume

Check the gain settings on your wireless bodypack transmitter and ensure the batteries in the transmitter are fully charged.

Intermittent audio or crackling

Inspect the TA4F connector pins for debris or bending and ensure the cable is not kinked or frayed near the connector housing.

Excessive background noise

Since it is omnidirectional, try moving the microphone closer to the sound source or ensure that ambient noise sources like air conditioning or fans are shielded.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely natural and transparent sound quality
  • Consistent performance regardless of exact microphone positioning
  • Highly durable construction resistant to sweat and water
  • Easy to integrate into existing wireless systems using TA4F connector
  • Low-profile aesthetic suitable for on-camera or stage use

Cons

  • Omnidirectional pattern captures more ambient background noise
  • Requires a compatible wireless bodypack with TA4F input
  • May require more gain management in noisy environments compared to cardioid mics

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Setup: Secure the microphone using the included accessories. Ensure the TA4F connector is firmly seated into your wireless bodypack transmitter.
  2. Compatibility: The TA4F Mini-XLR connector is designed to be compatible with a wide range of professional wireless systems, including Shure and other brands utilizing the standard 4-pin configuration.
  3. Care: Although the unit is sweat-repellent, always wipe the microphone with a soft, dry cloth after use. If exposed to heavy moisture, leave it in a dry, ventilated area before storing it in its protective case. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the capsule to prevent damage to the protective membrane.
