DPA 4061 Core

DPA 4061 Core hire in Melbourne. A tiny black omni lav that disappears on talent, built for television and theatre and the voices that push other mics too hard.

For broadcast and theatre lavs, the answer is usually DPA. The 4061 is acoustically the same as the 4060, with lower sensitivity, so it handles loud voices, actors projecting on stage and wireless packs with plenty of gain without distorting. The capsule is about 5mm across and black, so it hides in hair, under a collar or on a tie. It's omnidirectional with a neutral sound, so the voice stays even as the talent turns, and CORE by DPA gives it more dynamic range and cleaner peaks than the older version.

It works on instruments too. Close mic a violin, a guitar, a bass, a viola or a harp and the sound is natural with no stand in the shot. The Microdot connector means it can plug into Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sound Devices and Wisycom transmitters with the right adapter.

Good for: theatre, broadcast, documentary, corporate video, interviews, hidden lav work, loud or projected voices and close miking strings.

Good to know: Add the DPA MicroDot Adapter for your transmitter when you book, or tell us your wireless system. Quiet or soft spoken talent? The DPA 4060 is the better match. Comes in a DPA case with soft boost and high boost grids and a clip or mount.
