The DPA 4099 Instrument Mounted Microphone is a miniature supercardioid, mic that is optimized to easily mount and capture the Guitar in live sound reinforcement applications such as performances, rehearsals, etc.
This particular version of the 4099 is optimized for capturing Guitars and Guitar related instruments such as the Dobro, Banjo, etc. The included mounting system is meticulously designed for the guitar family, in order to ensure the best possible fit and audio reinforcement when performing live. The included shockmount, gooseneck and clip minimize vibration noise without marring or scratching the instrument itself.
The microphone features DPA's patented Microdot connection and the included DAD6001-BC Belt-Clip Power Supply accepts 48V phantom power from mixers, amplifiers and other sources. A 6' MicroDot to standard XLR cable is included.
