Why settle for anything less than crystal-clear vocal performance The d:fine CORE 4188 Slim Directional Flex Two-Ear Headset Microphone is engineered for professionals who demand not only style and comfort but also exceptional sound quality. This beige headset microphone, with its sleek 120mm boom, is a testament to DPA's commitment to audio excellence.
The d:fine CORE 4188 boasts the renowned 4088 Directional Capsule, ensuring pristine audio capture with superior off-axis rejection. This feature is particularly beneficial in live performance settings, where background noise and feedback are prevalent concerns. The microphone's cardioid polar pattern is meticulously designed to focus on the sound source, providing natural voice intelligibility and the ability to handle high sound pressure levels (SPL) without distortion.
Crafted for durability and resistance to humidity, the d:fine CORE 4188 is equipped with a water-repellant nano-coating and hermetically sealed amplifier, ensuring consistent performance in any environment. The dual gold-plated diaphragm further enhances the microphone's reliability, earning it an IP58 certification for its robustness against dust and moisture.
The headset's slim and flexible design allows for easy mounting to either the left or right side, ensuring a comfortable fit for extended wear. Its minimal visual impact makes it an unobtrusive choice for on-camera appearances, theater productions, and live performances. The adaptable nature of the headset is highlighted by its flexible adapter system, which is compatible with most professional wireless systems, offering versatility and ease of use.
The d:fine CORE 4188's CORE technology provides a significant 14 dB increase in dynamic range, delivering an open and clear sound that goes beyond the specifications. The longer 120mm boom is strategically designed for placement at the corner of the mouth, reducing "popping" and ensuring optimal audio capture.
Whether used as an earset for quick and easy conference setups or as a headset for secure fit during active performances, the d:fine CORE 4188 adapts to any ear size and head shape. The boom and ear hook can be rotated for use on either ear, and the connector allows for swift cable or wireless connector changes, should the need arise.
In summary, the d:fine CORE 4188 Slim Directional Flex Two-Ear Headset Microphone is the professional's choice for capturing focused, high-quality audio with style and comfort. Its directional capabilities, resistance to external noise, and compatibility with various devices make it an indispensable tool for vocalists and speakers alike.
