DPA Microphones is proud to announce that it has once again been nominated for
the prestigious NAMM Technical Excellence & Creativity (TEC) Awards, a
longstanding testament to the company’s quality and reputation. This year, DPA’s
d:facto™ 4018VL Linear Vocal Microphone is nominated in the Microphones – Sound
Reinforcement category.
Featuring a new capsule with an isolation-optimized supercardioid polar pattern that
is specifically designed to augment the human vocal range, the d:facto™ 4018VL
combines the very best of cardioid and supercardioid characteristics. This ensures
complete focus on the sound source with minimum bleed, resulting in high
separation, natural sound and SPL handling up to 160dB. The d:facto™ 4018VL is for
sound engineers who want the ability to design the complete sound pattern to
create their own unique sound and is ideal for PA amplification and recording.
“We’re very excited to be nominated for a revered TEC Award again this year,’ says
Kalle Hvidt Nielsen, CEO of DPA Microphones. “The d:facto™ 4018VL Linear Vocal
Microphone gives sound engineers the perfect opportunity to capture isolated and
precise sound during all types of vocal performances.’
DPA’s d:facto™ range of microphones is completely modular. The microphone
capsule can be removed and replaced with any other d:facto™ capsule to suit
different recording or performance requirements. Also, when using DPA’s flexible
adapter system, the microphone can be transformed from a wired version to a
handheld wireless microphone capable of seamless integration with all leading
wireless solutions.
Presented annually at The NAMM Show in Anaheim, the TEC Awards recognize the

recording industry. TEC Awards nominations are made by a panel of industry
professionals and voted on by members of various professional organizations and
audio industry websites. The 32nd Annual TEC Awards will be held January 21,
2017, at the Anaheim Hilton.
