FAQs:
What does the DAD9001 adapter do?
The DAD9001 allows DPA miniature microphones with a MicroLock connector to connect directly to equipment with a standard 3-pin XLR input. It converts P48 phantom power from the mixer, recorder, or interface so the microphone receives the correct operating power. This makes it straightforward to use miniature mics in wired setups without a wireless transmitter.
Is the adapter designed specifically for DPA microphones?
The DAD9001 is designed for DPA miniature microphones that use the MicroLock connection system. Its internal circuitry is optimised to support the full performance of DPA’s CORE+ microphones when powered from phantom-powered XLR inputs.
Why does the adapter include a belt clip?
The belt clip allows the adapter to be secured to clothing, a belt, or nearby equipment during use. The repositionable clip gives users more flexibility when routing cables or placing the adapter discreetly on the talent or crew.
Can I switch wireless systems without replacing my microphone?
Yes. DPA’s interchangeable adapter system allows the microphone to stay the same while you change the adapter to suit a different connection type. The interchangeable system lets you switch between wireless and wired XLR setups without replacing the microphone, while maintaining the same sound quality.
