About DPA Microphones d:screet CORE 4660 Heavy Duty Mic, MicroDot, Normal SPL, Black

Overcome challenging recording situations with the d:screet CORE 4660 Heavy Duty Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone with MicroDot Connector. This robust microphone is designed for scenarios demanding maximum security and durability, where the visual size of the microphone is secondary.

The d:screet Heavy Duty Mic Series is renowned for its stainless steel housing, heavy-duty cable relief, and a thick 2.2 mm (0.09") cable. These heavy-duty microphones are an upgraded, more resilient version of the original DPA miniature microphones, offering exceptional audio quality and uniform, consistent sound across all DPA mics.

Despite its sturdy build, the d:screet 4660 Heavy Duty microphone remains compact, allowing for easy concealment and flexibility. Its modular adapter system is compatible with most professional wireless systems, making it a versatile choice for various recording environments.

These microphones are engineered to withstand harsh conditions, featuring an extra-robust, Kevlar-reinforced cable and a strain relief designed to endure constant twists, bends, and pulls. The microphone's 5.4 mm diameter pre-polarized condenser element is housed within a vertical diaphragm, known as the Double Vent Protection System, making the microphone highly resistant to humidity and sweat.

The d:screet 4660 Series offers the ability to modify the acoustic response by selecting the appropriate grid. Each microphone comes with two anodized stainless steel grids: the Soft Boost Grid and the High Boost Grid. These can be detached and cleaned as needed, ensuring the longevity of the microphone.

The d:screet 4660 Heavy Duty microphone delivers an exceptionally accurate omnidirectional pattern, eliminating the need to aim directly at the sound source for quality pickup. It excels at capturing speech in all its nuances and is ideal for high-end ambient recordings in limited spaces or when the microphone needs to be concealed. This microphone can handle sound pressure levels up to 134 dB before clipping occurs.

The unique MicroDot termination and changeable adapter ensure secure configuration and compatibility with various professional wireless systems, including Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Lectrosonics, Zaxcom, and more. This flexibility allows you to switch your adapter as needed, avoiding the cost of a new microphone.

The omnidirectional nature of this microphone allows it to pick up sound equally from all directions, providing a natural and realistic sound. While omnidirectional microphones can produce feedback in live situations, the d:screet 4660 Heavy Duty microphone's close proximity to the sound source, high sound pressure level handling, and resistance to wind, pop, or handling noise make it a versatile addition to your audio toolbox.
