Part of the magnificent d:vote 4099™ series by DPA Microphones, the CORE 4099U is a high performance clip-on microphone for live sound and stage performance, where traditional microphone mounting solutions may prove to be problematic.
4099U is a supercardioid condenser, and the neat hook-and-loop-style mount allows the holder to fit numerous instruments of varying sizes and diameters such as oboe, clarinet, bassoon, recorder and flute.
The band pulls tight to fit the circumference of the instrument, like a wrist watch on your arm. UC4099 includes a “90 degree” system which provides many more mounting options. By detaching the clip from the gooseneck and re-mounting it turned 90 degrees, the number of mic positions is doubled.
DPA instrument microphones work best when you give them the full 48V worth of phantom power, you’ll get a natural sound, full frequency response and excellent gain-before-feedback.
Released in 2018, the new CORE series of d:vote instrument microphones are capable of handling high SPL (142dB for this model).
If you’ve got a wireless system you’d like to marry up with CORE 4099U, check out the DAD6034 adapter for Sennheiser beltpacks, or DAD6010 for Shure beltpacks.
