The d:vote CORE 4099 for Loud SPL is perfect for PA amplification and live recording of acoustic guitar, mandolin, ukulele and dobro. It offers practically unlimited placement possibilities. The sound it provides is considerably more natural than an internal microphone or pick-up.

The mic fits instruments with a body depth between 1.4" and 4.8 in". Users will appreciate how gently this condenser mic adheres to their prized instrument. It is elegant, lightweight, unobtrusive and designed to stay out of the way during a performance. The mounting mechanism makes it easy to move the mic between instruments with just one hand.

The d:vote 4099 is a high-quality, instrument microphone and the CORE version adds another layer of sound quality to give it an extra edge. Designed with a supercardioid polar pattern for high rejection and superior gain-before-feedback, this mic retains a uniform off-axis frequency response.

The d:vote CORE 4099 works great on any instrument, bringing detail and accurate expression across the entire dynamic range. CORE, by DPA, is a powerful new technology at the heart of DPA miniature microphones. With the CORE version of the d:vote 4099, you'll minimize distortion, from pianissimo to forte, with increased clarity and openness for exceptional recordings.

    This mic is great on Drums, percussion, guitars, Strings.. I personally have used it Live with artists like Enrique Iglesias on drums and percussion and Hands down is best mic out there. In the studio I had great results on nylon guitars and violins. I highly recommend any and all DPA mics.

  • I would buy again if they could redesign the "Clip"

    I have been trying to find something that would capture the natural acoustic sound of my guitar. This mic provides as close to just about anything I've found. Problem is, as I see it, if you are moving around for a live performance or just about any moment, even sitting, it's easy to knock the mic off your guitar. Might be fine for sitting and recording, if you are careful, but if you are doing that...might as well just mic it up with a stand. Didn't mind paying the price...but for that kind of $ my expectation was something more functional.

  • Good sound. Not very sturdy.

    Very good sound. Easy to input into PA system, but needs phantom power. This is the only mic that worked on my resonator guitar without major feedback. But it is not very rugged and can slip off the guitar at inopportune times. Mine needed lots of gaffers tape to hold it in place.
