DPA Microphones 4099P Stereo Mic System
- High gain-before-feedback
- Flat frequency response
- Compact, discrete size
- Excellent phase characteristic
4099P is a piano miking solution that makes it easy to achieve a high level of isolation on stage while providing clean and transparent stereo sound quality with realistic dynamics.
The 4099P is a complete system which includes a pair of sensitivity matched 4099 microphones on goosenecks with magnetic mounts to allow the most realistic capture of a piano. With its low profile and unobtrusive design it is perfect in closed lid scenarios for capturing true acoustic piano sound in a live setting.
The versatile magnet mount/gooseneck system provides stable and repeatable positioning. The mics can easily be positioned at different angles via the flexible gooseneck to provide a variety of sound nuances. The system includes two 3-pin XLR adapters.
The mounts can also be used with various instruments with magnetic surfaces.
The package includes
- Two sensitivity selected supercardioid 4099 gooseneck mics
- Integrated windscreen and shock mount system
- Magnet mounts to place on piano frame
- Two DAD6001 3-pin XLR adapters
