Take your vocal performances and spoken word presentations to the next level with the d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone. This high-quality, professional-grade microphone combines the superior sound of the 4088 Directional Capsule with the convenience and flexibility of the d:fine Earset system.
Designed for both professional and amateur use, this versatile microphone offers exceptional voice clarity and high-SPL capabilities. Whether you're delivering a speech or belting out a song, you can trust this microphone to capture every nuance without distortion. Its directional design ensures excellent off-axis rejection in high-SPL situations, effectively suppressing background noise and feedback in demanding live performance environments.
The d:fine CORE 4288 microphone is lightweight, easy to mount, and can be worn on either the left or right ear, making it a reliable choice for fast-paced settings like conferences. Its minimal visual impact and resistance to humidity further enhance its appeal for various applications.
The microphone's cardioid polar pattern, named for its heart-shaped sensitivity range, is optimized to pick up sound from the front while minimizing pickup from the sides and back. This feature, along with the microphone's low distortion and humidity resistance, makes it ideal for live stage performances and spoken-word events.
The d:fine CORE 4288 microphone also boasts a flexible adapter system that fits most professional wireless systems. This feature ensures that you can easily switch your adapter as needed, protecting your investment in high-quality sound for years to come.
The microphone comes with a 120mm boom, which is 3 cm longer than the omnidirectional version, ensuring optimal placement at the corner of the mouth to avoid "popping". The boom length is standard and fits most people, making this microphone a versatile choice for different applications and head sizes.
All CORE by DPA technology microphones, including the d:fine CORE 4288, are IP58 certified, thanks to their water-repellant nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm. These features ensure the microphone's durability and longevity, even in challenging conditions.
In summary, the d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone with 3-Pin LEMO Connector and 120mm Boom in black is a high-quality, durable, professional, versatile, and reliable choice for all your vocal and spoken word needs.
