DPA reveals the 4099 CORE+ instrument microphone at InfoComm 2025. The company built this upgraded version from user feedback and new technology advances. Musicians and engineers will notice the 10dB improvement in dynamic range compared to earlier models. The microphone also handles louder sounds before distortion kicks in. DPA claims their patent-pending CORE+ technology removes typical membrane and electronic distortions.
The mounting system received major changes for better performance. DPA created the new Gooseneck Mount with a two-step locking system that works with one hand. This G-MOUNT design cuts down vibrations and makes the microphone more stable during use. Several clips for cello, piano and microphone stands work better after DPA refined their designs. The new XLR-MOUNT lets users attach 19mm pencil mics or XLR adapters to the system.
The 4099 CORE+ works with many existing DPA clip designs from previous models. DPA added their new MicroLock connector to make connections more reliable between parts. Product Management Director Helga Volha Somava says the microphone captures instruments without changing their natural sound. The company has not announced pricing or when customers can buy the 4099 CORE+.
