DPA d:vote 4099P Clip Mic for Piano 2 pieces


The DPA d:vote 4099P Stereo Mic Kit is a super-cardioid clip-on double bass microphone representing a revolutionary concept in instrument microphones. Part of DPA's d:vote family of instrument microphones, everything about the 4099P stereo kit has been designed to give you the most natural piano sound possible.

 

They also perform very well in studio situations, their innovative magnetic mounts allowing you to find the ideal position for the mics on any piano.

 

The d:vote™ 4099P Piano Stereo Microphone Kit is the result of DPA’s extensive research and development into creating the ultimate clip-on microphone for live piano performances and recordings. The d:vote 4099 contains a highly directional capsule designed for use in stage and orchestral settings where other instruments and monitoring may be in close proximity. The pick-up pattern of the capsule ensures maximum isolation of the piano, with low self-noise and high gain before feedback.

 

The d:vote 4099P stereo kit contains two 4099 mics that produce a very natural sound, both on and off-axis so that even in the unlikely event of a spill, there are no unnatural harsh frequencies to deal with.

 

The ingenious magnetic mounting system is designed to securely attach the gooseneck mics inside the piano by way of rubber-coated magnetic clamps, very simple to fit and reposition.

 

The 4099P mics for piano come with DPA microdot to XLR adapters which require 48v phantom power.
