Just imagine the perfect blend of superior audio quality, durability, and versatility in a compact, lightweight design. That's what you get with the d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone. Engineered by the renowned DPA Microphones, this professional-grade earset microphone is designed for both spoken word and vocal performance applications.
The d:fine CORE 4288 features the legendary 4088 Directional Capsule, known for its accurate and natural voice intelligibility and high-SPL capabilities. This means you can speak or sing into the mic without any hint of distortion, making it an ideal choice for live performances or high-SPL events.
One of the standout features of this microphone is its cardioid polar pattern. This design reduces background noise and focuses on the sound source, making it perfect for demanding environments where noise and feedback are concerns. The bass response is optimized for linearity at 2-3 cm from the sound source, ensuring a prominent bass roll-off at greater distances. This is a crucial factor in rejecting background noise and avoiding feedback.
The d:fine CORE 4288 is not just about performance, it's also about comfort and ease of use. It can be easily mounted to the left or right ear, and the flexible adapter system fits most professional wireless systems. The microphone adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. Plus, the connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, allowing for quick and easy swapping of broken cables or wireless connectors.
This microphone is also resistant to humidity and features a water-repellant nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm. These features make it a reliable choice for outdoor performances or humid environments.
The d:fine CORE 4288 also offers flexibility with its adapter system. This system allows you to switch your adapter as your needs change, without the need for a completely new microphone. This microphone works with all leading wireless mic solutions, including Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom, and more.
In summary, the d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone with 3-Pin LEMO Connector and 120mm Boom is a high-quality, durable, professional, versatile, and reliable choice for all your vocal applications. Whether you're delivering a keynote speech at a conference or performing live on stage, this microphone delivers pristine audio quality every time.
