DPA 4099 CORE+ Supercardioid Instrument Microphone with Guitar Clip (Loud SPL)

At the heart of the 4099 CORE+ is DPA's updated CORE+ technology, which provides a wider dynamic range and increased headroom. With a peak SPL handling of 145 dB before clipping, this Loud SPL version (identified by a red marking on the gooseneck) easily manages everything from subtle harp melodies to powerful drum strikes, ensuring a natural and distortion-free signal. The microphone's supercardioid polar pattern offers well-balanced isolation from surrounding instruments, enhanced by a new advanced shockmount and improved gooseneck design for exceptional rejection of vibration and handling noise.

The integrated gooseneck mount (G-MOUNT) provides intuitive, one-handed operation and precise mic positioning. It enhances stability and isolation, streamlines the setup process, and ensures reliable performance under the pressures of live sound. A refined windscreen and low-reflective finish help maintain an unobtrusive visual profile, even on camera or stage.

The 4099 CORE+ is built to adapt. Its upgraded mounting system offers a wide range of clip options (available separately) that securely attach to virtually any acoustic instrument—no matter the shape or size—without causing damage. The detachable MicroLock connector provides compatibility with a variety of wireless and wired systems, while IP58 certification ensures the microphone stands up to moisture, dust, and the rigors of travel. With a single mic body and a selection of dedicated clips, the 4099 CORE+ offers an elegant and scalable solution for everything from solo gigs to orchestral tours.
