The 4099 Series in CORE+ Version: The Stage and Studio Reference, in Stereo Duo
The 4099 has established itself as a standard for compact instrument microphones thanks to its clip-on format, quick setup, and effective source isolation. This CORE+ variant represents an evolution of the range: it aims for cleaner capture and easier handling on instruments rich in transients, while preserving the 4099's DNA (precision, naturalness, and consistency from one session to another).
By choosing a stereo kit rather than two separate microphones, you ensure consistent level matching between channels. The result: more stable panoramas, a clearer center, and faster adjustments both on stage and in monitors.
For Which Accordionists and Use Contexts?
This kit is intended for accordionists seeking a close, defined, and reproducible sound capture, whether in concert or recording. It is particularly relevant if you play in ensembles with high stage volume (drums, brass, amplification), or if you want precise capture of attacks and nuances without relying on a stationary microphone placed in front of the instrument.
The stereo configuration is ideal for highlighting the openness and width of the accordion (right hand and left hand, or a more global approach depending on your placement). You gain clarity in the mix while maintaining fine control over balance and spatialization.

Questions frequently asked
Is the DPA 4099-DP-1-101-A suitable for an accordion played on stage with high dynamics?
The Loud SPL version is designed for high sound pressure levels and retains sufficient headroom for the pronounced attacks of the accordion. The supercardioid pattern helps isolate the source in a busy stage environment.
What stereo consistency do the two microphones in the kit offer?
The two microphones are selected with a sensitivity tolerance of plus or minus 1.5 dB. This matching limits level differences between channels. The stereo image can thus be distributed between right and left hands depending on the placement chosen.
How are the microphones attached to an accordion?
Two accordion clips are provided to install the microphones securely and repeatably. A permanent screw mount is also available.
What does the CORE+ technology change on this accordion kit?
CORE+ technology aims to deliver a cleaner signal during demanding passages. The sound is reported as more stable when dynamics increase, facilitating processing such as equalization, compression, or reverb.
How many microphones and clips are included in this stereo kit?
The kit includes a pair of 4099 CORE+ Loud SPL microphones and two clips dedicated to the accordion.
