DPA Microphones adds to its CORE+ microphone selection with the 4097 CORE+ Micro Shotgun, which delivers a new level of clarity, headroom and sonic transparency for speech, choir, film and broadcast applications. The integration of CORE+ technology significantly reduces distortion throughout the dynamic range of this gooseneck microphone to ensure pristine, intelligible sound capture in the most demanding sound environments. The upgraded microphone will be presented at NAB 2026 (Booth C4428).
Designed for conferences and houses of worship, as well as broadcast and film applications, the 4097 CORE+ is a versatile solution that builds on the proven performance of the original 4097 while incorporating DPA’s most advanced microphone technology to date. CORE+ is a patent-pending innovation that eliminates the non-linearities typically generated by microphone membranes and electronic components. This produces an exceptionally natural, distortion-free sound that is particularly critical for spoken word reinforcement.
“The 4097 has long been trusted as a solution for applications where clarity and directionality are essential,” says Helga Somava, Director of Product Management, DPA Microphones. “With the introduction of CORE+ technology, we have elevated that reliability. The 4097 CORE+ captures speech with greater accuracy, reduced distortion and improved headroom.”
