You can move the mic to another instrument; just make sure you have the right type of clip to mount it correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDPA’s versatile and practical instrument clip system has been a key selling point since the launch of the original 4099 in 2008. The principle of attaching the clip to the gooseneck has proven highly effective in both classical and rock applications, offering secure and flexible mounting solutions. And now, the clip system has been enhanced – improving not only the acoustic performance of the microphone but also the security, reliability and efficiency of the mounting process. These refinements make it easier to close-mic instruments and adjust capsule positioning for optimal performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe most significant update is the introduction of a new gooseneck locking mechanism: the Gooseneck Mount (G-MOUNT). By integrating this new locking principle, the mounting process is streamlined, ensuring greater stability, ease of use and precision of mic placement for musicians and audio professionals alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeneral\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional pattern: Supercardioid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrinciple of operation: Pressure gradient\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCartridge type: Pre-polarized condenser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 20 Hz – 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective frequency range ±2 dB, at 20 cm (7.9 in): 80 Hz – 17 kHz with 2 dB soft boost at 10–12 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity, nominal, ±3 dB at 1 kHz: 6 mV\/Pa; -44 dB re. 1 V\/Pa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquivalent noise level, A-weighted: Typ. 23 dB(A) re. 20 μPa (max. 26 dB(A))\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistortion, THD \u0026lt; 0.5%: 135 dB SPL RMS, 138 dB SPL peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistortion, THD \u0026lt; 1%: 138 dB SPL RMS, 141 dB SPL peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: Typ. 118 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax SPL, THD 10%: 145 dB SPL peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated output impedance: From MicroLock 30–40 Ω; from DAD9099 or DAD9001: 100 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable drive capability: Up to 300 m (984 ft) with DAD9001\/DAD9099 XLR adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput balance principle: Signal balanced with DAD9099 or DAD9001 XLR adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommon mode rejection ratio (CMRR): \u0026gt; 60 dB from 50 Hz to 15 kHz with DAD9099 or DAD9001 XLR adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower supply: For wireless systems Min. 5 V – Max. 10 V through DPA adapter; with DAD9001 or DAD9099: P48 (Phantom Power).
