DPA 4488-DP-R-B34

A Benchmark Designed for the Demanding Uses of the 4488 CORE+ Range

Designed for situations where placement stability and visual discretion are essential, the 4488 CORE+ follows a "field" logic: a directional headset microphone made to follow your movements, maintain consistent positioning, and stay visually clean. Its "one size fits all" design aims for simple adaptation to a wide range of head shapes while ensuring reliable hold over time.

Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?

This directional headset microphone is intended for users who need a microphone close to the mouth without occupying their hands: live artists, speakers, hosts, event professionals, or any stage performance requiring a lightweight and stable solution. It is particularly suited for contexts involving a lot of movement (stage walks, choreography, dynamic presentations) where maintaining a neat appearance with better cable management is desired.

Adjustments, Comfort, and Discretion: A Performance-Oriented Design

Comfortable Fit with 3 Points of Attachment

The attachment system above, below, and behind the ear is designed to distribute pressure and improve stability. The result: the headset microphone stays better in place while limiting the sensation of pressure during long sessions, rehearsals, or performances.

Simple Adjustments for Precise Placement

The frame is easily adjustable and allows fine-tuning to suit your morphology. The microphone length and position are also adjustable, helping you find the ideal balance between comfort, discretion, and consistent positioning. This type of adjustment is crucial for achieving a steady vocal pickup and keeping the microphone at the same distance throughout the performance.

90-Degree Rotatable Cable Guide: A Cleaner Stage

The 90-degree adjustable cable guide is a tangible asset for aesthetics and ergonomics: it facilitates discreet routing and helps keep the cable out of sight. It is also a real plus in daily use to prevent the cable from interfering, snagging, or distracting on camera.

Non-Reflective PVD Finish: Sobriety and Visual Coherence

The non-reflective PVD surface applied to the headset frame, microphone, and capsule enhances discretion under stage lights and in video recording. This finish limits unwanted reflections and contributes to a more "invisible" integration in stage, broadcast, or corporate environments.
