Distortion-Free Audio Quality
The DPA 4099 CORE+ Mic utilizes advanced CORE+ amplifier technology to eliminate harmonic distortion, ensuring a transparent and natural capture of the cello's full tonal character without any audible artefacts.
The DPA 4099 CORE+ Mic, for Cello Loud SPL, is a supercardioid clip-on condenser microphone tailored for cello, featuring distortion-free CORE+ technology, a 108dB dynamic range, SPL handling up to 142dB, and a precision gooseneck with a secure rubber-coated mounting system.
Distortion-Free Sound with CORE+
The microphone incorporates DPA’s advanced CORE+ amplifier technology, which eliminates harmonic distortion across the entire dynamic range. This ensures a completely transparent signal, with no audible or measurable artefacts even at high SPLs. Unlike earlier CORE versions, CORE+ reduces distortion to the point where only the system noise floor remains detectable, delivering a smooth and natural capture of the cello’s full tonal character.
High Dynamic Range and SPL Tolerance
With a dynamic range of 108dB and maximum SPL handling up to 142dB before clipping, the microphone reproduces both subtle phrasing and intense dynamics without compression or distortion. This makes it ideal for both studio recordings and amplified live performances, where sonic integrity is essential.
Natural Tonality On and Off Axis
The 4099 CORE+ offers a supercardioid pickup pattern that ensures strong source isolation while preserving off-axis detail. It avoids harshness and colouration, maintaining the natural warmth and detail of the cello’s resonance whether recorded in isolation or within an ensemble setting.
Reliable Instrument Mounting
The mounting system uses a rubber-coated clip that attaches securely beneath the cello’s bridge without damaging the instrument. Its adjustable gooseneck allows precise positioning for optimal pickup and consistent tone during performances.
Professional Integration
The microphone comes with the DAD6001-BC XLR adapter, which supports 48V phantom power and includes a high-pass filter to manage low-frequency rumble and handling noise. It also integrates easily with DPA’s range of wireless systems for flexible use in live or mobile applications.
Performance-Ready Design
Designed for professionals in orchestral, studio, and live sound settings, the DPA 4099 CORE+ Mic for Cello captures the instrument with full dynamic articulation and uncompromised clarity, even in high-volume environments.
