DPA 4060 CORE d:screet Miniature Omni Lavalier Microphone

The DPA 4060 CORE d:screet Miniature Omni Lavalier Microphone is built to be nearly invisible and highly durable, perfect for close-miking instruments, presentations, TV and movies. Kevlar-reinforced cable relief allows these mics to withstand the continuous twisting, bending and pulling that comes with everyday use. Two anodized stainless-steel grids are supplied so the microphone’s acoustic response can be modified. The pre-fitted Soft Boost Grid creates a natural-sounding atmosphere with a 3dB soft boost at 8-20 kHz, and is designed for use when the mic is mounted on the performer’s head. In applications where the microphone’s chest-placement is preferred, the High Boost Grid adds a 10 dB soft boost around 12 kHz. These features have earned the series an award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ Board, and made the 4060 Series the preferred lavalier mic for director Ridley Scott and other industry professionals.

Miniature omni lavalier microphone 4060 is the first miniature microphone developed by DPA and uses technology previously only found in hearing aids and measurement microphones. It reaches levels of 134 dB before clipping occurs. This ultra-tiny mic exhibits a highly accurate omnidirectional pattern, so it does not need to be aimed directly at the sound source to capture high-quality sound. The omnidirectional pattern also makes the mic less sensitive to pop and wind noise, making it great in applications with a remote or damped sound source.

Personalize the 4060 mic by choosing from a variety of available colors and connector options. This wireless lav mic uses DPA’s updated CORE amplifier technology, building on the success of the Legacy technology. CORE minimizes distorition and significantly expands dynamic range up to 14 dB (capsule dependent).
