Reference price

A reference for instrument recording, now in CORE+

The 4099 has established itself as a standard for capturing acoustic sources thanks to its miniature format, sound consistency, and ease of installation on the instrument. With CORE+, this approach gains finesse: the goal is to preserve the woody character of the double bass while providing a clearer reading of nuances, attacks, and sustain. In its Loud SPL version and with the double bass clip, it stands as a "ready-to-play" solution to achieve a usable sound quickly, without compromising musicality.

For whom and for what uses on double bass

This microphone is aimed at double bass players who want a credible acoustic sound on stage without relying on a stand microphone, which is often cumbersome and sensitive to movement. It is also suitable for studio contexts where a close, controllable, and unobtrusive capture is desired, especially to complement an ambient microphone or to secure a take in live playing conditions.

The 4099 CORE+ is particularly relevant if you alternate pizzicato and arco, play in amplified ensembles (modern jazz, contemporary music, amplified orchestras), or need stability and repeatability from session to session.

The supercardioid polar pattern helps to better isolate the double bass from monitor wedges, amplifiers, and other sources on stage.

What is the purpose of the Loud SPL version of the 4099 CORE+?

The Loud SPL version is designed to handle high sound pressure levels. It provides useful headroom during strong attacks and very dynamic passages. The electret backplate capsule maintains controlled pickup in amplified contexts.
