Need help choosing?

Choose the 4060 when maximum sensitivity and a strong signal-to-noise ratio are the priority for dialogue, chest-worn lavaliers, quieter voices or more distant placement. Choose the 4061 instead when you need extra headroom for loud voices, theatre or head-mounted placement. If concealment size matters more than the larger 5.4mm capsule, compare the 3mm DPA 6060 / 6061 family.

The DPA CORE+ 4060 is a 5.4mm omnidirectional miniature lavalier microphone for professional film, television, theatre, broadcast and location sound. Its 20mV/Pa sensitivity makes it the Normal SPL model in the 4060/4061 family, giving a strong signal for dialogue, chest-worn lav placement, quieter voices and more remote or acoustically damped positioning.

CORE+ by DPA reduces distortion across the microphone's dynamic range while retaining the familiar natural sound of the 4060 series. Choose Black, Beige, White or Brown, then select MicroLock or a hardwired 3-Pin Lemo, TA4F Mini-XLR or 3.5mm Mini-Jack termination to suit your wireless system.
