DPA Microphones has announced a new amplifier technology for its line of miniature lavalier and headset microphones.
‘Our new Core technology does not replace our existing beloved mics, but offers another choice to our worldwide customer base,’ says DPA Microphones Product Manager, René Mørch. ‘We want to give our users every option imaginable to capture the sound that they require during any type of production – live sound, theatre, film recording.’
Located in the capsule of its miniature mics, Core is currently available in the d:screet 4060, d:screet 4061, d:fine 4066 and d:fine 4088 mics. The amplifier increases dynamic range of the d:screet 4061 and the d:fine 4066 by 14dB at 1% THD.
Microphones purchased with the new technology will come in Core packaging and will have a blue label near the serial number on the cable to differentiate between these and the original versions. A very discreet laser engraving stating Core has been incorporated at the microphone capsule as well. The remaining d:screet and d:fine microphones and full range of colour options will be available with Core technology in early 2018.
The new Core omnidirectional microphones will also provide water and moisture resistance through nano coating and hermetic sealing of the sensitive electronics.
‘With the announcement of this new technology, we are staying true to our company roots by providing our customers with an enhancement to the absolute finest microphone solutions on the market today,’ Mørch says.
