This professional-grade microphone integrates the renowned 4088 Directional Capsule with the innovative d:fine Headset system, delivering unparalleled sound quality for both spoken word and vocal performances. Its high-quality cardioid polar pattern ensures clear voice intelligibility with exceptional off-axis rejection, making it the go-to choice for environments with high sound pressure levels (SPL) and potential background noise.

The microphone's 120mm boom is meticulously designed to position the capsule at the optimal distance from the mouth, enhancing the bass response and reducing the risk of 'popping' sounds. This feature, along with the dual gold-plated diaphragm, contributes to the mic's ability to produce a clear, open sound with a 14 dB increase in dynamic range, as part of the CORE by DPA technology.

The d:fine CORE 4188 is not only high-quality but also offers a flexible adapter system that is compatible with most professional wireless systems, ensuring seamless integration and easy cable or connector replacements. This headset microphone is IP58 certified, signifying its robust construction that includes hermetic sealing of the amplifier and a protective nano-coating.

Understanding the cardioid polar pattern's unique ability to capture sound with precision, the d:fine CORE 4188 excels on live stages and in broadcast settings, where directional audio capture is essential. The microphone's design minimizes sound coloration from off-axis sources, providing a true-to-life auditory experience.
