DPA 4099U

4099U Universal Clip Microphone (suit clarinet, oboe, bassoon, flute, recorder family)

Following on from the very well received 4099V (Violin), 4099S (Sax), 4099T (Trumpet), 4099G (Guitar) and others, DPA has come up with a simple and very flexible solution for 'slim bodied and unusually shaped' instruments. This 'microphone with velcro' solution is best hyped up by DPA: The creative design of the unique microphone clip includes a hook-and-loop fastener strap which allows the holder to fit numerous instruments of varying sizes and diameters such as oboe, clarinet, bassoon, recorder and flute. The hook-and-loop fastener band pulls tight to fit the circumference of the instrument, like a wrist watch on your arm.

- Clean and natural sound
- Excellent frequency and phase response
- Compact, discreet size
- Unique mounting system fits numerous instruments

The 4099U includes a revolutionary new "90 degree" system which provides many more mounting options. By detaching the clip from the gooseneck and re-mounting it turned 90 degrees, the number of mic positions is doubled.
