DPA d:screet CORE 4060 4060-OC-C-B00 Omni Mic, Normal SPL, Black Overview

Discover the shining star of Hollywood audio recording. The DPA d:screet Microphone has found its home in the audio toolboxes of so many film and television sound engineers. Its ability to capture astounding-quality audio in even the harshest of environments is a testament to the design and technological experience of DPA's innovation and flair.



The versatility of the 4060 lends itself to so many applications. Perfect for capturing speech with tremendous clarity and transparency, it's also ideal for miking a wide range of instrumentation, vocal performances, ambient/room noise and more. The omnidirectional design of the 4060 prevents the manifestation of the proximity effect, as well as dramatically reducing handling, pop and wind noise. So if you're looking for a mic that can deliver outstanding results no matter what or where you plan to record, the 4060 should be at the top of your list - It's no surprise that it found its way onto the set of Alien: Covenant, Mad Max: Fury Road and Game of Thrones.

Powerful CORE Microphone Technology

Found at the heart of many of DPA's d:fine™, d:screet™ and d:vote™ miniature microphone configurations, the innovative CORE technology offers minimized distortion, an expanded dynamic range, and an overall improved sound quality. CORE enhances the exceptional performance of DPA's existing microphone designs.

By minimizing distortion, CORE exhibits a significantly clearer and more open sound throughout the entire range of the microphone. On top of this, the increased dynamic range creates an increased workable range, and the microphone becomes much less vulnerable to overload. The increase of 14dB allows you to even capture screams without experiencing harmonic distortion.

Versatile Omnidirectional Polar Pattern

Omnidirectional microphones are often the choice for recording large and spread-out sound sources (such as choirs and orchestras). However, they are perfect for a wide variety of close-miking and vocal applications as well. This is thanks to their ability to accurately capture sound from all directions to produce an incredibly natural and realistic character in comparison to a cardioid microphone. When omnidirectional mics are used close to the desired sound source, they retain a beautifully transparent and balanced response and do not suffer from the proximity effect (increased bass when placed close to a sound source, often associated with cardioid microphones). Whilst they are sensitive in all directions, they are much less prone to wind, pop, and handling noise, providing you with a versatile microphone that can be used effectively in a huge range of applications and indoor/outdoor venues.

Customizable Acoustic Response

With the included microphone grids you can adapt the microphone to your specific situation with ease. The Soft Boost Grid (which comes pre-fitted) provides a soft boost of 3dB between 8kHz and 20kHz. This is perfect for head-mounted applications as well as achieving natural-sounding results. The other grid that is supplied with the 4060 is the High Boost Grid. This design provides a soft boost of 10dB around 12kHz. When mounting the microphone on the chest of a performer, the High Boost Grid is highly recommended. Each grid is crafted from incredibly durable anodized stainless steel for durability and reliability. The grids can easily be detached to allow you to clean them and the microphones themselves.
