• d:screet 4060 Omnidirectional Miniature Microphone with MicroDot Connector (Black) The black d:screet 4060 Omnidirectional Miniature Microphone with MicroDot Connector from DPA is a miniature lavalier microphone designed for use in performance and theatrical applications. The 4060 lavalier features a condenser element with a frequency and sensitivity response that will accurately reproduce audio signals from the human voice and instruments. The capsule is designed with a double vent protection system and moisture resistant materials inside the capsule, which ensure maximum protection from humidity and moisture caused by perspiration, makeup, etc.The 4060 includes interchangeable capsule protection grids that alter the signal character of the microphone. A High-Boost Grid creates a peak at 12 kHz, creating an airy texture to audio signals. The Soft-Boost Grid creates a subtle boost between 8-20 kHz, enhancing signal presence. With a SPL rating of 134 dB, the microphone is more than capable of reproducing transient (peaking) audio before clipping. The 4060 features a MicroDot output connector, compatible with various wireless microphone transmitters or power supplies with standard XLR outputs.
  Moisture Resistant
  • The 4060 features a double vent protection grid and moisture resistant materials, which prevent damage from humidity, perspiration and makeup.
  Frequency Altering Grids
  • The microphone includes "High Boost" and "Soft Boost" protection grids that alter the frequency response and accentuate high-frequency signals.
  Sensitive Condenser
  • The condenser element provides a wide frequency response while boasting an SPL rating of 134 dB.
  Omnidirectional Polar Pattern
  • The omnidirectional polar pattern effectively captures audio at the direct and off-axis sections of the capsule.
• d:dicate MMC4018 Supercardioid Microphone Capsule The MMC-4018 from DPA is a modular microphone capsule that has a highly directional supercardioid pickup pattern with a smooth and uniform off-axis frequency response. It can be used in a broad range of broadcast/ENG/film long-distance miking applications for booming, dialogue, podiums, interviews, and more. In addition, it can be used as a spot or hanging mic for orchestra recordings too. The capsule's supercardioid shape is frequency-independent, securing an identical sound color around the microphone. The usual rear lobe heard on most supercardioids is minimized on the 4018 capsule, which makes it much more isolated without the sudden frequency-dependent peaks and dips. Combine the MMC4018 with any of the pre-amps in the d:dicate modular series to fit your needs (sold separately).
• Gooseneck Shock Mount for d:dicate The DPA Microphones Gooseneck Shock Mount for d:dictate can be used to mount a microphone on an instrument. It is a combination of an 4.5" long gooseneck and shock mount. You can use it together with your choice of instrument clip and easily attach the mount to your specific instrument.The Gooseneck Shock Mount is intended for use with any d:dicate Recording Microphone that fits into the holder. The gooseneck provides stable and repeatable positioning. The mount has an integrated shock mount solution ensuring the sound is not affected by handling noise. This mount can be used for close-miking instruments in the studio or for live performances.
• SCM0004 Miniature Microphone Clip, Small (Black) The black SCM0004 from DPA is a miniature microphone clip especially designed for quick and easy mounting of a DPA miniature microphone on the chest of a speaker or performer. It can be used for situations where an inconspicuous mount is required, or when fast changes on the fly are necessary.
• CM4099 - Clamp Mount for d:vote 4099 Instrument Microphone The DPA CM4099 clamp mount lets you easily clip your d:vote 4099 microphone on saxophones, brass instruments, and a variety of other instruments.
