DPA Microphones 4099 CORE+ Supercardioid Instrument Microphone with Stand Mount (Loud SPL)

TheDPA 4099 CORE+ Supercardioid Instrument Microphone with Stand Mount supplements the versatile instrument microphone with a microphone stand mount.

The DPA 4099 CORE+ Instrument Microphone (Loud SPL) is designed to deliver uncompromising sound quality and unmatched versatility for close-miking a wide variety of acoustic instruments in both live and studio environments. Whether used on strings, winds, piano, guitar, or percussion, this discreet supercardioid condenser microphone captures the true character of each instrument with pristine clarity—even in high-SPL settings.

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.
