DPA will have a live band backline set up on its stand (D77) to display the host of applications that can be covered by its superb range of condenser microphones. The display will include a full drum kit, amplifiers, acoustic instruments and a vocalist, all miked with products from DPA's d:dicate Recording Microphone, d:vote 4099 Instrument Microphone and d:facto Vocal Microphone ranges. Over 20 different mics and microphone techniques for live sound will be demonstrated throughout the four days of the show.
At PLASA, DPA will also be focusing on its range of body worn microphones, which are internationally acclaimed for their superior sound and durability. Included in the line-up will be the company's recently launched heavy-duty d:screet 4060 Omnidirectional Miniature Microphone and the new d:screet Omnidirectional Miniature Necklace Microphone - a cleverly designed mic that houses the legendary d:screet 4061 Omnidirectional Miniature Capsule in a soft rubber necklace. The necklace mic comes in black, white and brown and in lengths of 47 or 53 cm (18.3 or 20.9 inches).
PLASA visitors will have an opportunity to win a d:screet Necklace Microphone, worth over £540, as one will be given away each day as part of the company's Wear it to Win it competition. To enter, visitors have to visit the DPA stand, be photographed wearing a necklace microphone and post their Polaroid into the entry box. A draw will be held at 5pm each day to pick a winner - whoever is chosen, must be present on the stand to claim the prize.
