DPA Microphones 4488 CORE Beige Directional Headset Mic, TA4F Mini-XLR

The 4488 CORE Directional Headset Microphone combines DPA’s renowned 5 mm capsules with CORE by DPA technology and the Red Dot award-winning headset. The 4488 CORE Directional Headset Microphone from DPA Microphone offers an open and natural sound, making it ideal for spoken word and vocal performances. It offers excellent off-axis rejection in high-SPL situations and efficiently suppresses distant sound sources, making it perfect for demanding live environments where the background noise and feedback are of concern. The bass response is designed for optimal linearity at 2-3 cm (1 inch) from the sound source. This means that the bass roll-off will be relatively prominent at a greater distance - a paramount factor when it comes to rejection of background noise and in the fight to avoid feedback. Technically advanced construction 4488 CORE's one-size-fits-all design is the most advanced construction on the market to ensure lasting comfort, even during longer production sessions. Its grippy form gently and snuggly fits around your head and is adjustable with the spring mechanisms. This headset easily customizes to suit individual performers, making it a versatile option for users. Adjust to your comfort The frame is crafted from stainless steel with a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating that makes it highly secure and durable. It can tolerate high temperatures and is resilient against impact and abrasion. The microphone has a pleasant matte look due to the coating, making the entire headset look small and less obtrusive than other headset solutions. Furthermore, it adds nothing to the size of the microphone, as the PVD is extremely durable but at the same time extremely thin. 2-way boom adjust The boom can easily be adjusted so that it sits perfectly near performers mouths, and can be extended and shortened while also pivoting up and down at a fixed point below the ear (no more bending the boom). An anti-rotating mechanism designed into the boom shape, prevents it from rotating. A sliding lock system ensures the boom is locked into the desired position. The boom portion can be detached at a point below the ear and moved from the right to left side of the frame. For your convenience, a service connector at the end of the boom pole so that the boom and cable can be replaced independently if needed. The service connector is well-protected by a plastic cover that slides over the gold-plated connectors. 3-point grips for ears The ear grips on our new headset relies on a 3-point gripping system to add a supportive area behind the ear, pressing gently inward. This not only makes the headset sit more securely, but it also makes them extremely comfortable to wear even over long periods. 90° cable management The headset has its cable guide directly at the back of the headset frame so you can easily organize the cables to run unobtrusively down the back of performers. The special construction also separates the cables from the boom movement, which ensures cables are not pulled on when the boom is moved. The cable is built to be extremely rugged with an inner core made of Kevlar that withstands rough pulls and are the highest standard on the market. The cable, capsule and boom design are built to ensure immunity against noisy wireless devices. This headset offers a comprehensive mix of adapters to suit the many wireless transmitters available.
