The 4018ES-T Supercardioid Table Kit Microphone from DPA is designed for capturing professional-grade audio. It can be used in applications such as broadcast, ENG, film, and long-distance miking environments. With a length of 3.5cm, the microphone is unobtrusive and suitable for interviews or table and spot-recordings. The microhpone features a supercardioid capsule and a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz. It is powered by 48V of phantom power.

The 4018ES-T kit features an MMP-E series active cable preamp which comes with a side mounted cable connected to the capsule. The microphone provides high separation without off-axis frequency peaks and dips, for an even sound on all sides. The rear lobe pattern is minimized for isolation, allowing for use as a spot or hanging microphone in orchestra recording situations. An SM4000-C suspension mount, table stand, and windscreen are included.
