The beige Core 4288 Directional Flex Headset Mic, 120mm Boom with 3-Pin LEMO from DPA combines the sound of the 4088 directional capsule and Core amplifier in a lightweight and flexible two-ear headset. It can be used when miking needs to be fast and easy, and where the person wearing the microphone will barely feel the presence of it; such as in conference, speech, and active live performance applications.

The cardioid polar-patterned Core 4288 offers a 4 dB increase in dynamic range and a 14 dB decrease in THD (total harmonic distortion) over the Legacy version and is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably. It easily adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, while at the same time, it mounts securely and is hardly visible. By rotating the boom and the ear hook, the microphone can be used on either the left or the right ear. In addition, the connector splits the cable from the microphone boom allowing you to swap broken cables and/or transmitter connectors quickly. Finally, it includes a makeup cover, four windscreens, and a pop screen.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How do you connect the clip to the adapter? I'd hate to break my adapter!

A: Ease it on. Gently but firmly.

Q: 2. Can I use this with a Shure 47 or Sanken COS11D Lav that has a microdot connector? If not, what is the best solution, please. Thanks

A: Any microphone with the Microdot connector is expecting a DC bias level to bias the electret capsule. Normally the microdot connector of a bodypack will have approx 5 V DC bias. This DPA adapter is not just a simple resistive divider - it has a complete circuit board with biasing circuit and buffer amplifier to drive long mic cables. I measured 8 V open-circuit, and 2.5 V with my DPA 4066 headset connected. This leads me to believe that the final DC voltage level will depend on the bias current drawn by the specific brand/model of electret mic you connect to it (but it will never exceed 8 V). So, although I have not tested the particular models you mentioned, I believe that any microphone with a microdot connector can be used with this adapter without risk of damage. This is certainly a very nicely-made adapter with no expense spared on the circuit from what I can see.

Q: 3. Is this adapter also compatible with Lectrosonics SSM transmitter that uses a 3-pin lemon connection?

A: The DAD6003 MicroDot adapter can be used with the Lectrosonics SSD transmitter.

Q: 4. Is this Mic muteable?

A: The DPA Microphones 4060 Omni Boundary Layer Mic does not have an onboard mute switch but you could use a separate mute switch such as the Rolls MM11 Pro Microphone Mute/Talk Switch (B&H # ROMM11PRO) or the Rolls MS111 Mic Switch - Latching or Momentary Microphone Mute Switch (B&H # ROMS111).

Q: 5. Does this have a ptt button? If so, where is it?

A: The Motorola IXTN4011 Single-Ear Headset with Boom Mic does not have a Push-To-Talk button.

Q: 6. How does one go about the actual wiring process between the microdot connection and the xlr?

A: Simply plug the microdot on one end, and the XLR on the other, the adapter is inside.

Q: 7. Can work with rode wireless pro?

A: No, the DPA 4097 CORE Micro Shotgun Interview Kit is not compatible with the Rode Wireless Pro natively as the mic has a Microdot connector. You will need to use an adapter like B&H # TEMA01.

Q: 8. Kindly is this adapter compatible with the Sennheiser SK 5212 II? Thank you

A: Yes, the DPA DAD6003 MicroDot to 3-pin Lemo Connector is compatible for use with the Sennheiser SK 5212-II wireless transmitter.

Q: 9. Will this connect a microdot mic from DPA (4097 for instance) to a Zaxcom LA2.5 transmitter?

A: The DAD6003 Microdot to 3-Pin LEMO Adapter does not officially list compatibility with Zaxcom devices, but it will work with most devices with a 3-pin LEMO input.

Q: 10. Is this a usb headset?

A: No it is not.. But it comes with a usb conversion plug
