DPA 4060 Series d:screet CORE Lavalier Microphones
The DPA 4060 Series of lavalier microphones features a presence boost which optimizes it as a chest-placed microphone for broadcast, ENG and film. (6 mV/Pa)
The d:screet CORE technology from DPA Microphones is a powerful development at the heart of their miniature microphones. They have minimized distortion, so that from a whisper to a scream, you will experience increased clarity and openness. The DPA d:screet CORE series of lavaliers include the DPA 4060, 4061, 4062, & 4063 models. The 4060 Series also includes the 4071.
MINIMIZES DISTORTION
When the output of the microphone no longer sounds like the input, we call this distortion. Although all systems and mics add some distortion, well-designed systems and mics exhibit less distortion. By increasing the dynamic range of the mics, CORE by DPA extends the point at which the distortion is measurable. In addition, CORE by DPA lowers the general distortion heard at all levels – from soft to loud. That means a clearer more open sound across the entire microphone range.
EXPANDED DYNAMIC RANGE
CORE by DPA increases the dynamic range of d:screet™ Miniature and d:fine™ Headset Microphones up to14 dB depending on the specific type of capsule.
This gives users more flexibility by expanding the range of sounds that can be captured. In most cases, sound engineers prefer a mic with a wide dynamic range because they can use one mic to capture a wider range of sounds and in more applications.
- Increased dynamic range = Increased workable range
- Increased dynamic range = Less vulnerable to overload
If choosing the Microdot version, please remember to add a Microdot adapter to your cart.
4060
d:screet™ 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Normal SPL
This microphone is small in size, but mighty in flexibility. Due to its miniature size, it exhibits an exceptionally accurate omnidirectional pattern and therefore does not need to be aimed directly at the sound source to achieve quality pickup. The omnidirectional pattern also makes it less sensitive to handling noise as well as pop and wind noise.
DPA originally designed this microphone for use with wireless systems in theaters but today it is one of the most loved mics for television and film applications as well. It is especially suited for capturing speech in all of its nuances and can be used to close-mike a wide range of instruments. This microphone handles sound pressure levels up to 134 dB before clipping occurs. This mic is well suited for applications where the sound source is more remote or damped and you need to have a good balance signal versus noise.

4061
d:screet™ 4061 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, High SPL
This microphone is acoustically identical to the d:screet™ 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Normal SPL, but its sensitivity is adjusted to accommodate higher sound pressure levels (SPLs).
The d:screet™ 4061 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, High SPL can handle SPL up to 144 dB peak before clipping, making it one of the best miniatures for use on very loud sound sources, such as some instruments and human voices.
In comparison, the d:screet™ 4061 is about 10 dB less sensitive than the d:screet™ 4060 and therefore works well when used for hidden applications, for example mounted on the head or forehead of a theater performer. In this placement, the sound pressure level is about 10 dB louder than what you encounter with chest placement (lapel microphone).

4063
d:screet™ 4063 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Extreme SPL & DC
The d:screet™ 4063 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Extreme SPL & DC is designed for use with transmitters giving only 3V bias voltage. Some transmitters provides only 3V instead of the more common 5V. In this case, the d:screet™ 4063 is the right choice for such transmitters.
The mic is acoustically identical to the d:screet™ 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphones but its internal preamplifier in the input stage is designed for working with lower supply voltage. With the correct power source, the microphone will be able to handle sound pressure levels up to 138 dB before clipping occurs.
