DPA Microphones 4060 CORE Omni Mic, Normal SPL, Black, 3-pin LEMO Standard

The DPA Microphones 4060 CORE Omni Mic with Normal SPL is an omnidirectional condenser lavalier microphone that’s small in size, but mighty in flexibility. Due to its miniature size, it exhibits an exceptionally accurate omnidirectional pattern and therefore does not need to be aimed directly at the sound source to achieve quality pickup. The omnidirectional pattern also makes it less sensitive to handling noise as well as pop and wind noise.

DPA originally designed this microphone for use with wireless systems in theaters, but today it’s one of the most loved mics for television and film applications. It’s especially suited for capturing speech in all its nuances and can be used to close-mike a wide range of instruments. This microphone handles sound pressure levels up to 134 dB before clipping occurs. This mic is well-suited for applications where the sound source is more remote or damped and you need to have a good balance signal versus noise.

The 4060 was the very first miniature microphone developed by DPA from the best technology previously only used in hearing aids and measurement microphones. DPA Microphones in this series were developed to withstand the toughest of conditions. They contain a 5.4 mm diameter pre-polarized condenser element with a vertical diaphragm. This unique, Double Vent Protection System makes the mics greatly resistant to humidity and sweat. These mics are also designed with a Kevlar-reinforced cable relief, which is built to withstand the constant twists, bends and pulls that are part of the everyday use in harsh environments.
