Engineers at Sweetwater love the 4000 system for its ease of use and the exceptional results it delivers.A dramatic breakthrough in transducer technology The Barcus Berry Planar Wave system signifies a dramatic breakthrough in transducer technology. The sensor is effectively non-responsive to vibrations borne by the major surface planes of the instrument soundboard; yet it remains highly sensitive to the transverse energy waves traveling along the soundboard. These unique properties allow the system to capture stunning, full-spectrum frequency response and perfectly balanced amplitude across the entire range of a piano or harp, with superior rejection of ambient sounds and feedback. The 4000 Planar Wave System includes Barcus Berry’s 4000XL piezo preamp, an active direct box that can be powered by a 9-volt battery or 48-volt phantom power. It is fitted with a 1/4-inch monitor output jack with variable level, as well as a balanced XLR main output with ground lift and a 12dB pad.Barcus Berry 4000 Planar Wave System Piano/Harp Pickup System Features at a Glance: Ideal for piano, harp, harpsicord, clavicord, and cimbalom Unique sensor technology reproduces full frequency range with perfect amplitude balance, superior feedback rejection, and complete isolation from ambient sounds (including keyboard and pedal noise) Frequency response: 5Hz–30kHz (+/- 1dB) Easily affixes to either side of the soundboard without tools (no holes to drill) Works with grand piano lid open or closed (short stick recommended) Features a 1/4-inch monitor output with variable level, XLR main out with ground lift, and 12dB output pad Operates with either 9V DC battery (included) or 48V phantom power Includes piezo Crystal Sensor for piano/harp, 4000XL piezo preamp, adhesive patches, set of 4 rubber feet, and instruction manual SpecificationDetail Microphone Type Boundary Piezo Crystal Sensor Frequency Response 5Hz-30kHz (±1.1 dB) Max SPL 110dB Output Impedance 1 Kohm Signal to Noise Ratio 108dB Color Black Connector XLR Power Source 48V phantom power / 9V battery Included Accessories Adhesive Patches for Transducer Installation RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
