About DPA Microphones d:vote 4099 Supercardioid Instrument Mic with Low Sensitivity

Building upon the award-winning 4099 series, d:vote features an enhanced shockmount design and a choice of detachable cables of two diameters and versatile gooseneck extender. Much more natural sounding than any internal microphone or pickup, d:vote rejects unwanted noise and accurately captures the true voice of acoustic instruments.

From piano, guitar and strings to woodwinds, brass and drums, d:vote sounds equally impressive on them all. Now, just one microphone model can beautifully reinforce an entire orchestra. These cost-effective mics are handcrafted in Denmark for a wide array of musical instruments, complete with gentle, discreet mounting solutions and robust carrying cases. All d:vote 4099 condenser microphones feature supercardioid polar patterns for high rejection and superior gain-before-feedback, while retaining a highly uniform off-axis frequency response.
