10 KHZ Array Microphone

Array Microphone Type 4957 is a ¼" pre-polarized microphone suited for use in systems requiring a large number of microphones, such as beamforming arrays, STSF measurements, and non-stationary STSF measurements.

In combination, these microphones have specified and stable phase-matching over wide ranges of temperature and humidity.

USE SCENARIOS

• Measurements using: Spatial Transformation of Sound Fields (STSF) Type 7688, Non-stationary STSF Type 7712, and Beamforming Type 7768
• Hand-held array measurements
• Simultaneous recording of time signals in medium to large microphone arrays, for example, simulated pass-by measurements
• Cost-effective in-car measurements

The microphone preamplifier is of the industry-standard CCLD type allowing the use of only one cheap coaxial cable for signal, power supply, and TEDS.

A rugged protection grid provides an integrated heat shield. The microphone is front-vented for pressure equalization. 

The microphone is supplied in a hard box with one to six microphones delivered in a standard microphone box. Seven or more microphones are delivered in a multi-microphone mini-suitcase.
