LEWITT DTP 40 Trs

LEWITT DTP 40 Trs — a 5-pin XLR splitter cable to dual 3-pin XLR (female) connectors, built for the DTP 640 REX dual-capsule microphone.

This cable is essential infrastructure for DTP 640 REX owners, since the microphone combines a dynamic and a condenser capsule in one housing, both routed through a single 5-pin connector. Without the right splitter, the signals from both capsules stay inaccessible for separate processing across two console or interface channels.

Splitting Two Signals From One Microphone Capsule

The core challenge with dual-element microphones is that both transducers share a single connector on the body, which doesn't mate directly with a standard mic input. DTP 40 Trs solves this by splitting the 5-pin signal from the microphone connector into two independent cables terminated in standard 3-pin XLR, ready to plug into two separate input channels. That gives an engineer simultaneous access to the dynamic capsule, handling the beater attack, and the condenser capsule, handling the low end, each on its own signal path.

Clean Low-End Signal Without Interference

When recording a kick drum or other bass-heavy sources, cable shielding quality directly affects how much electrical interference shows up in the signal, especially over longer runs sitting near other electronic gear onstage. The oxygen-free copper (OFC) construction, combined with tight shielding, minimizes the risk of introduced noise, preserving the full tonal character of both DTP 640 REX capsules across the cable's length.
