About DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4088 Headset Mic with TA4F Mini-XLR, Small, Beige

Explore the exceptional audio quality and performance of the d:fine CORE 4088 Directional Headset Microphone with TA4F Mini-XLR Connector. This industry-leading headset microphone is renowned for its open and natural sound, making it the go-to choice for both spoken word and vocal performance applications.

Designed with a cardioid polar pattern, this microphone excels in minimizing background noise and focusing on the sound source. This makes it an ideal choice for high-SPL situations and demanding live performance environments where background noise and feedback are potential challenges.

The d:fine CORE 4088 is not only high-performing but also lightweight, flexible, and easy to mount on either the left or right side. Its resistance to humidity and IP58 certification for water-repellant nano-coating and hermetic sealing of the amplifier core ensure its durability and reliability.

This professional-grade microphone features a secure, dual-ear design that can be used for various performing talent applications. Its small .64cm (.25") diameter and weight of just 14g (.5 oz) allow for discreet and comfortable use, even for extended periods.

The microphone's boom is 3cm (1") longer than the omnidirectional version, perfectly suited for placement at the corner of the mouth to avoid "popping". The d:fine CORE 4088 also boasts a 14 dB increase in dynamic range, thanks to the CORE by DPA technology.

The cardioid nature of this microphone makes it an excellent choice for live stage performances, capturing the focused sound of an instrument or voice while minimizing bleed from other sounds on a busy stage.

The d:fine CORE 4088 is also compatible with all leading wireless mic solutions, such as Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom, and many more, thanks to DPA Microphones' unique adapter system.
