4097 Micro Shotgun Microphone. It now comes with CORE+.
The evolution of a classic is here. With the new CORE+ version of the 4097, DPA sets new standards for professional audio recording under the most demanding conditions. The microphone combines impressive performance specifications with a design engineered for maximum reliability in the field.
Precision without compromise
At the heart of this innovation is CORE+ technology, which neutralizes distortion across the entire 111-dB dynamic range. The result is significantly improved THD performance. Even at extreme sound pressure levels, the sound remains clean. The 4097 can handle peaks of up to 134 dB SPL with less than 1% THD and achieve a maximum sound pressure level of 136 dB.
Optimized isolation and modern design
Background noise is a thing of the past. Thanks to an updated design featuring an improved shock mount and optimized cable insulation, structure-borne noise and cable-related interference are effectively minimized. Visually, the microphone stands out with an upgraded gooseneck and a new foam form with an elegant flocked surface. The IP58 certification also guarantees high resistance to external influences.
Maximum flexibility in use
Mechanical security is ensured by the proven MicroLock® system, which offers a rotatable and non-reflective connection. Whether as a discreet lavalier microphone on set, in a mobile interview kit, or as a precise solution for choir recording—the 4097 CORE+ is as versatile as your daily workflow. The system is delivered in new, compact packaging that is perfectly tailored to the high-quality zip case.
