What you need to know
What you need to know
- Natural and consistent sound: pressure omnidirectional capsule, ideal for voice, theater, and broadcast, delivering a very homogeneous sound even if the head rotates.
- CORE+ Technology: reduces distortion across the entire dynamic range for a more transparent capture, especially useful in real-world conditions (live, RF, multiple microphones).
- MicroLock Connector: more secure connection thanks to locking, while remaining compatible with the MicroDot ecosystem (locking works when both sides are MicroLock).
- Miniature and robust: discreet format easy to conceal, with dust and moisture resistance rated at IP58.

A DPA Reference in Lavalier Microphones, Modernized with CORE+ and MicroLock
The DPA 4060 is a classic professional lavalier microphone: it is found on sets (filming, TV), in conferences, and musical theater, thanks to its very effective "signal-to-noise" balance and its ability to remain musical even with imperfect placement. With the CORE+ generation, DPA pushes signal cleanliness even further by neutralizing distortion across the entire dynamic range, without changing the sonic DNA that made the 4060 series famous. This version also adopts the MicroLock termination, designed for intensive use and RF setups where connection security is essential.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
This omnidirectional lavalier microphone is designed for situations where close, natural, and intelligible capture is sought: presenters, actors, conference speakers, interviews, corporate recordings, worship, or close miking of instruments when discretion is paramount. The Normal SPL version prioritizes sensitivity and detail finesse, making it particularly comfortable on spoken and sung voices, as well as on "standard" sources (without extreme levels). Paired with a bodypack transmitter, it becomes a formidable solution to gain freedom of movement while maintaining high-end capture quality.

Questions frequently asked
Is the DPA 4060-OP-C-B90 compatible with MicroDot wireless systems?
The MicroLock termination is backward compatible with the MicroDot ecosystem via dedicated adapters. The locking mechanism is active only when both connection parts are MicroLock format. A power supply of 5 to 10 V is required for the specified performance.
Is this lavalier microphone suitable for singing or miking an instrument?
With a sensitivity of 20 mV/Pa and a maximum SPL of 134 dB SPL peak at 10% distortion, this Normal SPL version is suitable for spoken vocals, singing, and sources without extreme levels. The omnidirectional capsule facilitates close placement and limits timbre variations due to movement.
What does the CORE+ technology change on the 4060?
The CORE+ system reduces residual distortion across the entire dynamic range, especially during transients and high levels.
How to adjust the brightness of the microphone?
Two protective grills allow adapting the high-frequency response depending on placement. The Soft Boost grill provides a gentle 3 dB lift between 8 and 20 kHz, while the High Boost adds 10 dB at 12 kHz.
What are the size and cable length of the DPA 4060?
Its diameter is 5.4 mm with a length of 12.7 mm, and it has a 1.8 m cable. The total weight including cable and connector is 7.5 g.
