Discreet and Versatile Solution for Dialogue, Voice-Overs, and Interviews

The DPA 4097 CORE Micro Shotgun is a professional, versatile, weatherproof microphone ideal for interviewing, dialogue, and narration for video, DIY journalism, indie film, and broadcast applications. The mic weighs just 0.35 ounces and features an integrated shock mount and 4-inch gooseneck, allowing for a variety of positioning options with the set. It's lighter and more flexible than traditional boom mics, making it easier to pick people out of the way. Interview remotely. Thanks to its compact size, it also excels as a directional plant mic, providing excellent sound even in tight spaces.

A supercardioid polar pattern focuses voice pickup on the subject, reduces unwanted off-axis background noise, and improves speech intelligibility. In addition, the microphone has low self-noise, high sensitivity, and can handle high SPL for natural, distortion-free results, even for unpredictable recordings when the subject is projecting loudly. The 4097 is optimized for speech with a flat frequency response up to 2dB gentle boost in the 10kHz range, providing the articulate presence typical of DPA mics.

The best power supply is 48V phantom power, but the mic will work with 12V phantom power (with reduced capacity to handle high SPL). The 4097 can also be operated with 5-10 V from the bodypack transmitter. Even 3-4V from a low DC transmitter will work, but the lower the output, the more likely it is that the mic will distort if the talent or interviewee shouts or raises their voice.

Designed to withstand the rigors of location shooting, the 4097 is IP58 rated for resistance to moisture, extreme temperatures and humidity. With a body coated in a water-resistant nano-coating and a highly sensitive amplifier in the core of the sealed microphone, the 4097 Micro Shotgun is ready for use in a variety of indoor and outdoor locations.
