4099 Guitar Clip Microphone
- Superior gain-before-feedback
- Wireless compatible
- Flexible and easy one-hand mounting
- Holder gentle to the instrument
Perfect for acoustic guitar, mandolin, banjo and dobro, the 4099 Guitar offers practically unlimited placement possibilities as well as a sound that is considerably more natural than an internal microphone or pick-up.
The 4099 Guitar is a unique clip microphone inheriting the sonic approach from the legendary DPA studio microphones to a new instrument microphone. No multipurpose microphone, the 4099 microphone and mounting system is meticulously designed and optimized for the guitar family. This is to ensure the best possible mount and audio reinforcement is achieved when performing live.
Representing years of research and development, the 4099 condenser microphones feature supercardioid polar patterns for superior gain-before-feedback. Fully capable of handling the guitar’s dynamic range and subtle details, these microphones live up to their pedigree with sound as accurate as DPA’s other world-class microphones.
Despite its tiny, discreet size and elegant, lightweight design, 4099 Guitar is extremely rugged. The versatile gooseneck provides stable and repeatable positioning. The mics can be easily unclipped and repositioned or moved to another instrument with only one hand, while the mounting system is designed never to mar or scratch the finish of your instrument.
Through the use of our extensive adapter system, the 4099 is compatible with virtually any wireless system and can also be used as a standard 48V phantom powered microphone via the included XLR connector.
Reduce cable clutter on stage by using the DAO4099-G Guitar Double Cable. This cable runs both the 4099 mic and a pick-up jack connection in one split cable.
Fleet owners of 4099s will appreciate the multiplicity of using the microphone for a number of different instruments simply by moving the microphone/gooseneck part to another instrument clip from the range.
With its very flexible design for a wide variety of mounting and positioning possibilities along with its extremely natural sound, the 4099 is truly a musician’s mic without equal. Continuing DPA’s heritage of sonic excellence, this series of microphones achieves the purest reproduction of your instrument and therefore your full range of expression.
