The black DPA 4080 CORE is a miniature cardioid lavalier microphone designed for use with wireless systems for live events, journalism, and broadcast applications. The electret-condenser capsule delivers crisp, clear, and intelligible speech, while the rugged yet unobtrusive design is well suited to the demands of professional live stage work and presentations.

While small and visually unobtrusive, the 4080 uses DPA's CORE technology to deliver increased dynamic range and low self-noise for outstanding speech reproduction. Engineered for chest placement, the mic is pre-EQ'd with a 4 dB presence boost in the 4 to 6 kHz range to ensure clarity.

The cardioid polar pattern focuses audio capture on the talent, picking up less audio from the sides and helping to reduce unwanted background sounds. This pattern works best for forward-facing talent speaking in the direction of the mic, including broadcast personalities and presenters; it also helps to reduce feedback issues when monitors and PA systems are employed for sound reinforcement.

With an SPL rating of 134 dB, the 4080 is more than capable of handling most standard speakers and presenters. The microphone is powered by 5 to 10V plug-in power from a wireless transmitter. This version features a locking 3.5mm connector for use with wireless transmitters and recorders wired for Sennheiser compatibility.

Wired with Locking 3.5mm Connector
Compatible Wireless Transmitters
  • Sennheiser: Works with Sennheiser transmitters equipped with a locking 3.5mm connector, including the Evolution (ew), XSW-D, and SpeechLine (SL) Series.
A Reliable, Broadcast-Quality Lavalier
Miniature Mic with a Crisp, Clear Sound
The 4080 CORE features a small capsule for a low-profile visual appearance. The diaphragm offers a nuanced sound optimized for speech.
Presence EQ Boost for Chest Placement
The mic is pre-EQ'd with a 4 dB soft boost in the 4 to 6 kHz range for clarity. The low-cut filter also helps to minimize low-end rumbles and reduce unwanted proximity-effect bass frequencies.
Normal Headroom for Standard Speech
The 4080 CORE features a sensitive capsule designed for standard speech applications at levels up to 134 dB SPL before clipping.
Cardioid Pickup Pattern
The cardioid polar pattern focuses audio capture on the talent in front of the mic and provides a consistent frequency response, even for off-axis sounds at lower volume. The narrow pickup pattern helps reduce feedback problems from monitors and PA systems for clear, intelligible speech.
Windscreens and Clip Included
The DPA 4080 CORE includes a black foam windscreen, a white foam windscreen, and a lapel clip. The lapel clip offers a unique mounting design with a ball-shaped fixation spot, allowing the microphone to be easily turned in all directions. The clip fits both left- and right-side buttoned shirts.

A book every teacher/parent should read!
Format: Hardcover
I LOVE this book because the "bad seed" reminds me of my son. I don't believe there are any "bad kids" in the world but I'm sure kids look at themselves as bad if that is all they ever hear. I love how this story gives a sympathetic backstory on how he got "so bad" and how he is trying to do better and change his bad ways. Even though my son isn't perfect, he sure does try to do good and his behavior improves when people notice the POSITIVE instead of the negative. I absolutely love the last lines of the book where the other seeds are gossiping (another lesson) saying, "Hey! There goes that bad seed," and another seed sticks up for him and says, "Actually, he isn't that bad anymore." Then the "bad seed" turns around with a smile on his face and says, "I heard that." Moral of the story.....children are always listening. Focus on the positive rather than the negative and a child's self-talk and behavior will drastically improve. My son's 2nd grade year was so negative and he was always getting into trouble. I rarely heard the good and neither did my son. His 3rd grade year was amazing. The teacher really focuses on pointing out his good choices and what a difference that made in my son's attitude toward school. Thank you Jory John for writing this book. I also love the book, "I Love You Already" which teaches readers about friendship, love, patience, loyalty and forgiveness. :)
