The DD0297 is a
microphone protection grid ideally suited for making all types of far-field recordings.
It is supplied as standard with the Standard
Microphone Types
4003 and 4006, the A-B
Stereo Kits 3503 and 3506 and the Compact
Microphone Types 4051, 4052 and
4053, but can also be ordered separately. With this grid fitted, your
microphone will achieve a linear diffuse-field response up to 15
kHz.
In the near-field, the on-axis response has a 6
dB boost at 15
kHz. At intermediate distances, you can orient your
microphone at a "grazing angle" of incidence to the
sound source to give a
normal response to direct
sound while brightening up reflective
sound.
