DPA 4055 Kick Drum Microphone

The DPA 4055 Kick Drum Microphone is a high-end condenser microphone specifically designed for kick drum and other low-frequency instruments. Unlike traditional dynamic kick mics, the 4055 takes a modern approach, offering maximum accuracy, high dynamic range and full control over the sound.

Combining DPA’s precision capsule technology with extremely high SPL handling, it performs equally well in studio and live environments. Its compact, asymmetric design allows easy positioning both inside and outside the bass drum.


Sound Character

The 4055 delivers a highly natural, punchy and detailed sound. Instead of a pre-shaped tone, it features a linear frequency response, allowing engineers to shape the sound according to their needs.

Low frequencies are deep and controlled, mids remain clear and defined, and highs are open and natural. The microphone also handles extreme sound pressure levels without distortion.

Thanks to its neutral tuning, it works not only on kick drum but also on toms, snare and bass amps, providing a balanced and spatial sound reproduction.
