About DPA Microphones CORE 4097 Interview Kit

Under challenging recording conditions, the 4097 CORE Interview Kit stands out as a professional, high-quality, and reliable solution for broadcasters. This kit includes a 4097 CORE Shotgun Microphone, renowned for its superior performance in outdoor environments, effectively handling adverse weather conditions and reducing intrusive background noises.

Designed by the reputable DPA Microphones, this kit offers a lightweight and compact solution without compromising on sound quality. It's versatile enough to be mounted on a tripod via the cold shoe mount, serving as a stationary interview microphone on a table, or directly on the transmitter for a minimalistic setup on a podium.

The 4097 CORE Interview Kit is not just limited to interviews. It's also an excellent tool for on-the-go voice-over work, with a range of DPA accessories available to customize the microphone to your specific needs.

For teams conducting on-location interviews, especially outdoors, this kit offers the flexibility and ease of use that professionals require. The 4097 CORE Micro Shotgun Mic, attached to an extremely lightweight telescope boom, allows for interviews at more than arm's length, weighing in at just 330g (11.6 oz) without the transmitter.

The kit's compact design collapses down to about 40 cm (16 in) for easy transport and extends up to 140 cm (55 in) for versatile usage. Simply clip your existing transmitter into the holder at the bottom of the pole, connect it via a wireless DPA adapter (not included), and you're ready to record. For larger transmitters or extra security, a Self-Securing Closure strap is included.

The 4097 CORE Interview Kit also accommodates XLR connections with the use of the DAD6001-BC Adapter for MicroDot to 3-pin XLR with Belt Clip (not included). Whether you're recording in a controlled indoor environment or facing the unpredictability of an outdoor location, this kit is a durable and versatile choice for professional audio recording.
