A Reference in DPA Miniature Microphones, Modernized with CORE+
The DPA 4061 is among the most used miniature microphones for discreet sound capture, especially for live vocal performances, TV recording, theater, and applications where size and reliability are critical. This CORE+ version continues the 406x series legacy, focusing on performance and consistency: faithful sound reproduction, excellent compatibility with wireless systems, and a design built to withstand field conditions.
Within the range, the 4061 is often chosen when aiming for high level robustness and stable capture, while maintaining the precise sonic signature expected from a high-end miniature microphone.
For Stage, Theater, Broadcast... and All "Invisible" Captures
This microphone is intended for sound engineers, stage managers, boom operators, content creators, and technical teams who need a discreet yet immediately usable microphone: spoken or sung voice, actors equipped with wireless, conference speakers, or close placement on instruments when aesthetics and compactness require a miniature solution.
Thanks to its omnidirectional polar pattern, it is particularly tolerant of placement variations: useful when the microphone is hidden in a costume, wig, accessory, or placed very close to a source without the possibility of precise aiming.
CORE+ Technology, Loud SPL Version, and MicroLock Connectivity: The Key Choices
CORE+: A Cleaner, Easier-to-Process Signal
CORE+ technology aims to improve signal cleanliness in real-world conditions, where a miniature microphone can be heavily challenged (high dynamics, proximity, wireless systems, heavy EQ). The result: a more stable and pleasant sound to work with, whether mixing on console, post-production, or recording, while retaining the precision expected for voice.
"Loud SPL": Built for Energetic Sources
The Loud SPL version is designed to better handle very loud sources. It is a relevant choice when proximity is mandatory (hidden mic, tight placement) and when you want to minimize the risk of distortion in demanding situations: projected stage voice, musical theater, percussion, winds, or close miking of an instrument. This approach also helps maintain a comfortable gain margin during adjustments.
MicroLock: A Secure Connection for Professional Use
The MicroLock connector is designed for production contexts where frequent plugging/unplugging occurs and reliability is non-negotiable. It helps secure the link between the microphone and the wireless/wired adapter, which is particularly appreciated in live performance, on set, or on tour.
Black Finish: Maximum Discretion
In black, this microphone easily blends with dark costumes, accessories, and discreet setups. It is a common choice for theater, events, and sets where the goal is to make the microphone as invisible as possible while maintaining high-end sound quality.

Questions frequently asked
Is the DPA 4061-OP-C-B90 suitable for very powerful voices?
The Loud SPL version is designed to handle high sound pressure sources, such as projected voices, percussion, or wind instruments. It allows maintaining gain adjustment headroom when placed very close.
What connector does this DPA lavalier microphone use?
The MicroLock connection secures the link with a wireless or wired adapter in stage and production environments.
Is the omnidirectional pattern suitable for a microphone hidden in a costume?
The omnidirectional capsule tolerates placement variations when concealed in a costume, wig, or accessory. This pattern avoids the need to precisely aim the microphone at the source. The miniature lavalier format facilitates discreet installations.
What does the CORE+ technology change on the DPA 4061?
CORE+ technology aims for a cleaner signal in demanding situations, especially with high dynamics or strong equalization. The sound remains precise for the voice and usable for mixing or postproduction.
Is the microphone discreet on stage with the black finish?
Its black finish blends more easily with dark costumes and accessories used in theater or events.
