DPA
d:vote™ 4099P Stereo Microphone System for
Piano |
Product Code: VO4099P
|
• High
gain-before-feedback
• Flat frequency response
• Compact, discrete size
• Excellent phase characteristic
• Detachable cable and versatile gooseneck extender
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
selected 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.
Optional gooseneck extension
Standard gooseneck length is 140 mm (5.5 in), which can be altered
with the optional gooseneck extension unit, adding another 50% to
the length, helping to achieve exactly the sweet spot for the
instrument.
Detachable cables
The updated 4099 range features detachable cable from gooseneck, so
it’s more convenient to mount the mic on an instrument before
connecting it. Furthermore, the choice of different cable qualities
makes it possible to tailor your mic to the specific task, such as
choosing the heavy duty 2.2 mm cable for PA/Live gigs or the
easier-to-hide, thinner miniature cable for personal mounting on
instruments where you don’t want the cable weight to
interfere with your performance. In case of cable break, service is
easy and fast.
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
