DPA 4061 CORE+ Omnidirectional Condenser Clip-on Mic, Loud SPL 144dB, Black, MicroLock

Capture pristine audio, even in the most demanding environments, with the DPA 4061 CORE+ Omnidirectional Condenser Clip-on Mic. This discreet and powerful lavalier microphone is the perfect solution for theatre, broadcast, and professional presentations where clarity and reliability are non-negotiable.

The 4061 CORE+ features DPA's innovative CORE+ distortion-free processing, which minimizes unwanted noise and ensures a crystal-clear, full-bodied sound at any volume. With an impressive peak SPL handling of 144dB, this microphone can capture everything from a quiet whisper to a loud shout without clipping, making it ideal for use on stage, hidden on performers, or on loud instruments. Its sensitivity is about 10dB less than the 4060, which makes it perfect for close-mic applications where sound pressure levels are higher.

Designed for professional convenience, the microphone is acoustically identical to the DPA 4060 but built to handle a higher SPL. Its micro-size construction and flexible build allow you to easily hide the microphone on a performer while maintaining an attractive and clear output. The MicroDot connector is compatible with a wide range of adapters for wireless systems, and the MicroLock feature ensures a secure connection, providing you with reliable, wire-free performance.

Key Features:
  • CORE+ Processing: Delivers a wide dynamic range and distortion-free output.
  • Omnidirectional Condenser: Captures a natural, transparent sound from all directions.
  • Loud SPL Handling: With a 144dB peak SPL, it can handle very loud sound sources without clipping.
  • Micro-size & Flexible: Easy to hide on performers or instruments for discreet use.
  • MicroLock Connector: Provides a secure and reliable connection to a wide range of wireless systems.
  • Optimal for High-SPL Applications: Ideal for use on the head or forehead in theatre, where sound is louder than a typical lapel position.
