Tackle Vocal Projection at Its Core
It's no surprise that DPA's 4088 headset microphone is among the most popular tools for onstage musicians, theater performers, and presenters alike. Clean and natural audio quality awaits via the pre-polarized condenser mic cartridge and cardioid polar pattern. Likewise, an ultra-wide 20Hz–20kHz frequency range and six mV/Pa sensitivity ensure the 4088 CORE+ is always optimized to capture your voice with utmost authenticity, no matter your performance at hand. The CORE+ architecture is designed to prevent clipping and unwanted artifacts from disrupting your signal, seamlessly ensuring a clean output at all times. Complete with a humidity-resistant construction to accommodate even the most challenging theater and presentation environments, the 4088 CORE+ mic is a must-have inclusion in any high-profile performance session.

Focused sound, generous headroom
The 4088 CORE+ offers a clean and natural sound quality with copious headroom. Employing a pre-polarized cardioid cartridge element, the 4088 CORE+ is specially designed for maximum performance and comfort under the often difficult conditions encountered when mounted directly onto a performer’s head. In theater production and live performance applications, DPA's CORE+ series can save sound crews time, effort, and money. DPA microphones are renowned for their ability to withstand high sound pressure levels without distortion, and the 4088 CORE+ mic minimizes distortion and keeps your sound artifact-free via the CORE+ architecture. With its impressively wide dynamic range, it can be worn by an actor scripted to whisper in one scene — and scream in the next!


Integrates smoothly into your setup
The sensitivity of the 4088 CORE+ is six mV/Pa to match the level of the human voice to the general input sensitivity of most wireless transmitters. A wide range of connection adapters makes it possible to use the 4088 CORE+ with most of the professional wireless systems on the market and +48V phantom XLR connections. Whether used in live performance or theater applications, the 4088 CORE+ clearly captures wildly fluctuating SPLs with one mic. Its 4dB–6dB boost at 15kHz also ensures a strong vocal presence, even in dense orchestrations. In a production with three dozen or more microphones onstage, you'll appreciate the clear, focused sound and operational flexibility of the 4088 CORE+ cardioid headset mic.
Comfortable and resistant to humidity
With the 4088 CORE+, DPA has paid particular attention to humidity issues that often occur in theatrical applications and the headband's lightweight construction. A double-vent protection system, a drop stopper on the tube, and water-resistant materials inside the microphone make it more than difficult for the humidity to cause the microphone to fail.
