d:screet 4060 Stereo Microphone Kit
This d:screet Stereo Microphone Kit is a cost-effective and flexible stereo recording solution aimed at project studios and for discreet mic setup on stage. It contains a complete stereo pair; two handpicked omnidirectional condenser microphones, selected on sensitivity within +/-1.5 dB. It combines two d:screet 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Normal SPL, with a variety of mounting accessories. These include the BLM6000 Boundary Layer Mount, which can be used in conjunction with our d:screet 4060, 4061, 4062 and 4063 Miniature Microphones to place on a reflective boundary such as a floor, wall, ceiling, piano lid etc.

This enables the mics to capture the ambient sound of the area. The sound captured from this "pressure zone" has higher sensitivity, clarity and intelligibility compared to the sound captured from the "free air". This solution serves as a kind of acoustical zoom. There are many accessories included in the kit. One of them is the DMM0007 Universal Surface Mount. This mount allows all kinds of instruments, from acoustic guitar through grand piano and drums, to be mounted in the best-sounding position. The mount uses special non-marking adhesive discs for attachment.

- d:screet 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Normal SPL -
This microphone is small in size, but mighty in flexibility. Due to its miniature size, it exhibits an exceptionally accurate omnidirectional pattern and therefore does not need to be aimed directly at the sound source to achieve quality pickup. The omnidirectional pattern also makes it less sensitive to handling noise as well as pop and wind noise. We originally designed this microphone for use with wireless systems in theaters but today it is one of the most loved mics for television and film applications as well.

It is especially suited for capturing speech in all of its nuances and can be used to close-mike a wide range of instruments. This microphone handles sound pressure levels up to 134 dB before clipping occurs. This mic is well suited for applications where the sound source is more remote or damped and you need to have a good balance signal versus noise. The d:screet 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Normal SPL is available in four colors: black, brown, beige and white. An even more robust, heavy-duty version is also available.

A bit about omnis
An omnidirectional microphone has sensitivity at all angles - in principle picking up sound equally from all directions. This gives you extremely natural and realistic sound compared to a cardioid mic. Omni mics are often used for picking up ambient sounds, as well as miking a large sound source such as a choir in a recording situation. Unfortunately, due to their pickup pattern, omnis can also produce a lot of feedback in live situations.

Nonetheless, we recommend that you try a DPA omni first because, when used close to the sound source, the equal frequency response makes these mics a flexible addition in your audio toolbox. It will often give a more natural sound, it can handle extremely high sound pressure levels, it does not suffer from proximity effect and is not as sensitive to wind, pop or handling noise.

- XLR Adapter -
Adapter for powering Miniature Microphones via standard P48 phantom power. Designed for use with miniature microphones from DPA. Belt clip is included. This adapter is active-signal balanced, which improves suppression of induced electromagnetic noise. Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) is better than 60 dB from 50 Hz to 15 kHz. The adapter is functional at 12 V phantom power but needs 48 V +/-4 V to reach full specifications.

Flexible adapter system
The adapters for wireless systems give you flexible, simple and affordable possibilities. You are no longer bound to one wireless system. As circumstances change, you can just switch your adapter, instead of incurring the cost of a whole new microphone. And when you make the switch, you won't hear any loss or change in sound quality. The d:fine, d:screet and d:vote series of miniature microphones work with all leading wireless mic solutions such as Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom and many more. DPA Microphones' ingenious adapter system is one of a kind in the industry. It protects your investment in fantastic sound for years to come.

- Boundary Layer Mount -
The BLM6000 Boundary Layer Mount is a unique accessory that enhances the versatility of your d:screet Miniature Microphone. It is a soft piece of durable rubber with a diameter of 75 mm (2.95 in). It has an underside cavity for mounting a d:screet 4060, 4061, 4062 or 4063 microphone. Users will benefit from the special characteristics of the surrounding sound field on which the mic is mounted: a 6 dB gain of direct sound and only a 3 dB gain of the diffuse sound. The sound captured has both greater clarity, especially at high frequencies and speech intelligibility compared to sound captured above the surface.

The BLM6000 Boundary Layer Mount can be mounted on all surfaces that reflect sound such as floors, walls or ceilings. Placing a d:screet Miniature Microphone in this little device on the inside lid of an open grand piano also provides a very distinct and crispy sound.
