DPA 4099 CORE Mic, Loud SPL with Clip for Saxophone
The DPA 4099 CORE Mic, Loud SPL with Clip for Saxophone is the result of DPA’s extensive research and development into creating the ultimate microphone for live Sax performance and recordings.
Well-balanced Isolation
The CORE 4099 contains a highly directional capsule designed for use in ensembles, pit, stage and orchestral settings where other instruments and monitoring may be in close proximity. The pick up pattern of the capsule ensures maximum isolation of the musician’s saxophone, with incredibly low self-noise and high gain before feedback.
Natural Sounding
The DPA 4099 CORE Microphone includes the Loud SPL 4099 variation, which has a dynamic range of 108dB and can withstand up to 142dB before clipping. The CORE by DPA amplifier technology assists in the production of a very transparent sound so that even in the unlikely event of spill, there are no unnatural harsh frequencies to deal with.
Specifically Designed Saxophone Clip
Its mounting system is designed to securely attach the gooseneck microphone to the Sax by way of a rubber coated clamp which is very simple to fit and re-attach when required.
What's Included?
The DPA 4099 CORE Microphone for Saxophone comes with a DAD4099-BC XLR adapter which requires 48v phantom power and features a low cut built-in, but the Microphone can also be used with a wireless microphone system when coupled with the correct DPA adaptor.
- 1x 4099 CORE Loud SPL Mic.
- 1x DAD4099-BC
- 1x STC4099
