DPA 4099P Piano Microphone
The d:voteTM from DPA is already the industry standard for this type of microphone, and the CORE version adds another layer of sound quality that sets it apart from the competitors in the market. d:voteTM CORE 4099 is an instrument microphone that enhances your music's clarity and details across the entire dynamic range. Anyone looking for the best sound quality should go with CORE.
DPA's CORE technology is at the heart of the company's miniature microphones. We've reduced distortion. You will notice an increase in clarity and openness as you progress from pianissimo to forte.
The d:voteTM Series sounds equally impressive on the piano, guitar, strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion. This single microphone model can amplify an entire orchestra. You can move the microphone to another instrument; just make sure you have the suitable clip for mounting. The d:voteTM series produces a much more natural sound than any clip-on microphone or pickup. This condenser microphone eliminates background noise while accurately capturing the true voice of the acoustic instrument.
There are two versions of d:vote™ CORE 4099 Mic:
- d:vote™ CORE 4099 Mic, Loud SPL with red marking on gooseneck – used to close-mike for most types of instruments
- d:vote™ CORE 4099 Mic, Extreme SPL with yellow marking on gooseneck – used to close-mike for extremely loud instruments, such as drums and some brass
The d:vote™ CORE 4099 also has an improved shock mount design that offers excellent isolation from handling noise and rumble. Depending on the application, detachable cables are available in heavy duty or lightweight versions in which both are built to withstand the rigours of daily use. A versatile, integrated gooseneck extender makes installation simple and repeatable.
All CORE by DPA technology microphones, including the d:vote™ 4099, are certified with IP58 which achieved through the following defense mechanisms:
• Water-repellant nano-coating of the cover and housing
• Hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier at the core of the mic
• Dual gold plating of the diaphragm
