Shure DCA901 Broadcast Microphone Array

The Shure DCA901 is a digital array microphone designed for broadcast, delivering up to eight isolated channels from a single unit. Instead of repositioning shotgun microphones, engineers steer each lobe from a browser-based application, and one network connection carries Dante or AES67 audio, power and control. Onboard DSP adds automixing, EQ, compression and delay, with both direct and automix outputs.

Features

  • Eight independently steerable lobes, each with its own input gain, PEQ and direct output
  • One network cable carries Dante or AES67 audio, PoE power and control
  • Built-in DSP: automixing, noise reduction, compressor, delay and 4-band parametric EQ
  • Browser-based control with Auto Position, lobe locking and 10 preset slots, including 5.1 SMPTE
  • Supports 5.1 immersive capture, stereo automix and REMI workflows with remote lobe control
  • Low-profile, IP5X dust-protected housing with VESA MIS-D 75 mm mounting and AES-256 encryption

Applications

Sports and live event broadcasts, studio and mobile productions: mounted on a basketball stanchion, in the stands or suspended overhead to capture action and crowd sound.
