From the piano to guitar; strings to woodwinds; brass to percussion, the 4099 Series sounds equally impressive on them all. This one microphone model can beautifully reinforce an entire orchestra. You can move the mic to another instrument; just make sure you have the right type of clip to mount it correctly.The award-winning 4099 Series gives you a much more natural sound than any clip-on microphone or pickup. This condenser microphone rejects unwanted noise and accurately captures the true voice of your acoustic instrument.

This microphone comes in two versions:

  • 4099 CORE Mic, Loud SPL (red marking on gooseneck) – used to close-mike most types of instruments
  • 4099 CORE Mic, Extreme SPL (yellow marking on gooseneck) – used to close-mike extremely loud instruments, such as drums and some brass

The 4099 CORE also features an enhanced shock mount design, providing excellent isolation from handling noise and rumble. Detachable cables are available in heavy duty or lightweight versions, depending on the application – both are designed to withstand the rigors of daily use. A versatile, integrated gooseneck extender provides easy and repeatable mounting.

DPA 4055 KICK DRUM MICROPHONE

There are a lot of kick drum mics on the market – some are tailored for rock, some for jazz and other genres as well. While these mics can give you a traditional, standard genre sound, they tend to make one drum sound like another.

The same can’t be said for the 4055 Kick Drum Microphone.

You’re back in charge of the sound

Designed to kick the bass to the next level, the 4055 takes the traditional concept of a kick drum mic and turns it on its head – no more pre-tailored sound – now you can take sound design back into your own hands.

  • Capture the true sound of the instrument
  • Flat frequency response so you can shape the sound your way
  • Built tough to withstand rough use on the live stage
  • Asymmetric design for easy placement inside or outside

The 4055 delivers the renowned DPA sound, clarity and linear frequency response, both on axis and off axis. This mic is designed to be positioned inside or outside the kick drum, which gives you almost unlimited possibilities to capture the subtle nuances of the drum sound.
