DPA 4099 CORE Microphone (Loud SPL)

4099 CORE series are miniature super-cardioid condenser types, fitted with short goosenecks for positioning close to instruments in live or recording environments. There are two versions of this microphone, Loud SPL and Extreme SPL, both of which implement the DPA CORE technology to expand the dynamic range of the popular 4099 capsule and in turn increase the maximum SPL before clipping to 142dB (Loud SPL version) or 152dB (Extreme SPL version). Other than the difference in maximum SPL, these two microphones offer the same feature set.

This Loud SPL version is to cover most instruments, such as piano, violin, guitar, woodwind and accordion, where the sound level is not so high.
