The brown Core 4166 Slim Omni Flex Earset Mic, 110mm Boom with 1/8" Mini Jack from DPA combines the sound of the 4066 omnidirectional capsule and Core amplifier in a lightweight and flexible one-ear earset. It can be used when miking needs to be fast, easy, and where the person wearing the microphone won't feel the presence of it such as in conference, speech, and active live performance applications.

The Core 4166 gets a 14 dB increase in dynamic range than 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 wireless connectors quickly. Finally, it includes three windscreens, a clothing clip, ID rings, and a cover.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I'm looking to save space vertically. (from the mount, upwards) Is this the same size vertically as the D4 DUO?

A: Yes the V-Mic D4 and V-Mic D4 Duo will take up the same amount of verticle space. The Duo is a slighly larger mic though.

Q: 2. What is the pinout of this unit with and without the input jack attached? Is the capsule attached to both L, R? Does the input replace the capsule = R? Does it take L, R, or Both on input for the R channel output?

A: When using the Deity Microphones V-Mic D4 Mini Ultracompact Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone on its own, the signal captured by the microphone capsule is sent to both the left and right channels of the 3.5mm output connection. When using the V-Mic D4 Mini with a secondary input source, the microphone signal is allocated to the left channel of the output connection while the secondary source uses the right channel.

Q: 3. Would this work with Rode VideoMic NTG Hybrid Analog/USB Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone, or will it want to jump to the sky?

A: Yes it will.

Q: 4. Will it work if i connect another Deity Microphones V-Mic D4 into the input of a V-Mic D4?

A: Yes, the input on the Deity V-Mic D4 Mini Shotgun Microphone can be used to connect a second wired mic or a wireless mic system. The input can supply plug-in power for mics that require it, so you can connect a second V-Mic D4 Mini and the audio from the second mic will be recorded onto the right channel.

A: Yes, the Tula Mic by Tula Microphones can be used in LAV mode with a separate lavalier microphone to record audio on an iPhone.

Q: 8. what foam windscreen is recommended for this? If i don't want to use the furry wind cover

A: There are no foam windscreens available separately that are specifically sized for the Deity Microphones V-Mic D4. You could try using the Auray WHF-2040 Foam Windscreen For 3/4" Diameter Microphones (B&H # AUWHF2040) which is close in diameter, but it's not an exact fit for the V-Mic D4. A rubber O-ring or rubber band or a bit of padding or even tape can be used to create a tighter fit for the windscreen if you find that it is too loose.

Q: 9. How do you know what to connect where? The 3 ring side or the 2 ring side into the mic or camera?

A: There are two cables included with the Deity Microphones V-Mic D4 Mini Ultracompact Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone. One is 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRS and the other is 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRRS. The TRS connector has two rings and the TRRS connector has three rings. The TRS connectors should be used to connect to the mic output and also to connect to a camera's mic input or to the input on a recorder. The TRRS connector is for use with a mobile device and can be used with adapters to enable compatibility for connection to iOS or Android devices like iPhones, iPads, and other smartphones and tablets.

Q: 10. Is this mic compatible with Insta 360 One RS action cameras? I don't know if those cameras can supply plug-in power needed? thx

A: No. Unfortunately, the Deity Microphones V-Mic D4 Mini Shotgun Microphone is not compatible for use with the Insta360 ONE RS Camera because the camera cannot supply plug-in power for the microphone. You can use another mini shotgun mic that has a battery for power, such as the Comica Audio CVM-V20 Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone (B&H # COCVMV20).
