DPA Releases New Stand Mount & Shipping New Version of Headsets

by | Audio, Gear, News, Production

DPA has announced the release of the new MS4099 stand mount for the 4099 CORE instrument microphone. DPA also announced it has begun shipping brown versions of its new 4466 CORE omnidirectional and 4488 CORE directional headset microphones.

The MS4099 mount can be used on both three-eighths and five-eighths inch threads. Borrowed from the design of other DPA mounts, the barrel of the MS4099 is designed to make it easy to attach or remove the microphone. In addition, the mount can be turned for vertical or horizontal use, pending application. It’s also compatible with the brand’s 4097 CORE micro shotgun.

Now available in brown, the new 4466 and 4488 CORE headsets are equipped with DPA’s 5 mm round capsule and share the design of the company’s 6066 subminiature headsets. With a one-size-fits-all design and adjustable height and boom length, the headsets accommodate small to large head types, with a three-point gripping system designed to help ensure a greater level of security. The headsets are also available in black and beige options.

My Love-Hate Relationship with the De-esser

I don’t remember ever using a de-esser in the early days of my recording career. Sure, there were a few clever engineers who would side-chain a compressor to tame certain frequency ranges, but that was rare and not always used on vocals. If a vocal was harsh or overly...
