DPA 4088-DP-A-C90-LH

A classic in vocal sound capture, now in CORE+ version

The 4088 is presented as a reference in the world of professional microphones: a directional headset microphone designed to deliver a defined voice with faithful and natural reproduction. This CORE+ version continues this philosophy: maintaining the musicality and intelligibility that made the model famous, while providing a response even better suited to the demands of modern performances and productions.

With its brown finish and design aimed at quick setup, this 4088 CORE+ seeks a simple balance: to be discreet on camera, effective in the mix, and robust enough to handle rehearsals, concerts, and performances.

Who is it for and what are the uses?

This directional headset microphone is particularly recommended whenever the voice needs to remain stable and present despite movement: singers, actors, speakers, corporate presenters, places of worship, events, studios, or shows. The directionality helps prioritize the main source (the voice) and better manage situations where the environment is dynamic.

Another advantage in real conditions: the headset format frees the hands, allows a constant distance between the mouth and the capsule, and facilitates consistent sound reinforcement from day to day. It is a logical choice for those seeking a professional vocal solution that is both comfortable and reliable.

Key features and strengths in use

CORE+ Technology: a solid audio foundation for the voice

CORE+ technology is highlighted as guaranteeing impeccable audio quality. Practically, this translates into a clean and usable sound capture, ideal for vocal applications where clear articulation and natural rendering are expected, whether front-of-house, in monitors, or in broadcast contexts.

Ergonomics: lightweight, flexible, and left/right mounting

On stage, comfort and quick setup make a difference. The 4088 CORE+ is described as lightweight and flexible to achieve precise positioning effortlessly. The mounting can be done on the left or right, allowing adaptation to body shape, type of performance, or visual constraints (costumes, camera, staging).

Moisture resistance: designed for performance conditions

Between the heat of stage lights, the physical intensity of a show, or the duration of an event, moisture can become a critical factor. This headset microphone is moisture-resistant, an essential asset to secure the performance and maintain reliable vocal capture over time.

MicroLock and wireless compatibility: simple integration into professional rigs

Thanks to its flexible adapter system, the 4088 CORE+ is compatible with most professional wireless systems. This is a key point for sound teams: integrating the microphone into an existing inventory, quickly changing configurations, and maintaining efficient working habits. The MicroLock connector completes this setup for stage and production-oriented use.
