DPA d:vote Core 4099

Yes, the d:vote 4099 is designed to be modular. While the microphone capsule is the same, you can purchase specific mounting clips separately to attach it to everything from violins and cellos to saxophones and drums.

Yes, it requires 48V phantom power to operate. You will need an XLR adapter, such as the DPA DAD6001, to connect the Microdot output to a standard mixing console or interface.

The Core preamplifier technology significantly lowers the noise floor and reduces distortion, especially when handling high sound pressure levels. This results in a cleaner, more natural sound that captures the nuances of your instrument with greater clarity.

The supercardioid polar pattern is specifically designed to reject sound from the sides and rear. This makes it excellent for isolating your instrument, even in loud stage environments where other musicians are playing nearby.

The 140mm gooseneck is engineered for professional use and is highly flexible, allowing for precise placement without losing its shape. It is built to withstand the rigors of touring and frequent setup changes.

An IP58 rating means the microphone is highly resistant to both dust and water. While you shouldn't submerge it, it is robust enough to handle the moisture from breath or sweat, making it reliable for long-term use in demanding live performance settings.
