Product details
The classic d:fine 4088 headband microphone with directional characteristics is the industry standard for professional headband microphones. Its open and natural sound makes it the ideal choice for speech and singing. This microphone offers excellent off-axis signal rejection at high SPL. It effectively suppresses distant sound sources, making it perfect for demanding live performances with potentially problematic background noise and feedback. At high SPL or in the presence of feedback, this microphone handles such challenges effortlessly. The bass response has been designed for optimal linearity at a distance of 2–3 cm from the sound source. This means that the low-frequency roll-off will be relatively noticeable at greater distances—a very important factor in reducing background noise and combating feedback.
