DPA / 4099-DP-1-201-C

The 4099 CORE+ Instrument Microphone “Cello Set” is beloved by top musicians worldwide. It captures sound at the optimal position without damaging your instrument.

This ultra-unidirectional condenser microphone is ideal for stage sound capture. It excels at isolating the target sound from ambient noise while delivering exceptionally natural sound quality thanks to its outstanding off-axis characteristics.
Features DPA's patent-pending “CORE+ by DPA” technology. Achieves approximately 10dB wider dynamic range compared to previous models and a +3dB improvement in clipping point, faithfully capturing the instrument's true tone.
Incorporates the new “MicroLock” connector, combining flexibility and reliability. Its secure locking mechanism and high wear resistance ensure stable connections and reduce the risk of disconnection.
Anti-reflective materials are used on the gooseneck and windscreen. This makes the microphone less conspicuous even on brightly lit stages, allowing for unrestricted performance.
The included cello clip (C-CLIP) uses a clamping method that grips the strings, ensuring it does not affect the instrument's resonance.
The innovative “G-MOUNT” gooseneck locking mechanism enables smooth attachment while enhancing stability, operability, and microphone positioning accuracy.
Combining with the optional wireless conversion adapter enables dynamic performances involving movement across the stage. Compatible with wireless systems from various manufacturers.
