The brown DPA 4061 CORE with 3-Pin LEMO Adapter is a miniature, moisture-resistant lavalier microphone designed for use with wireless systems for broadcast, performance, and theatrical applications. The low-sensitivity electret-condenser capsule can handle loud vocalists, speakers, and performers and delivers crisp, clear, and intelligible audio, while the rugged yet unobtrusive design is well suited to the demands of professional live stage work and presentations.

This version of the 4061 uses DPA's CORE technology to deliver a 4 dB increase in dynamic range and a 14 dB reduction in noise over the 4061 Legacy model. The mic includes two interchangeable capsule-protection grids that alter the sonic character of the microphone. The High-Boost Grid creates a peak at 12 kHz, helpful for chest placement, while the Soft-Boost Grid offers a subtle boost between 8 to 20 kHz, lightly enhancing signal presence to ensure clarity.

With an SPL rating of 144 dB, the microphone is more than capable of handling loud speakers, vocalists, and presenters. The mic can also be used very effectively to capture instruments—making it a flexible tool for houses of worship and live event productions. The 4061 CORE is powered by 5 to 10V plug-in power from a wireless transmitter and features a modular design using a Microdot output connector. This version includes a 3-pin LEMO adapter compatible with Lectrosonics SSM, Sennheiser SK, and Wisycom MTP transmitters.

• Lectrosonics: Works with Lectrosonics transmitters equipped with a 3-Pin LEMO connector, including the SSM and the DBu. Also supports the Sennheiser SK Series and Wisycom MTP.
• The modular design allows you to adapt the 4061's Microdot connector to a wide variety of transmitters simply by purchasing the compatible adapter—saving you the expense of buying another microphone.

The DAD6001 Microdot to 3-pin XLR adapter (available separately) allows you to power the 4061 from 12 to 48V phantom power for wired applications.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How's this mic function with the Sennheiser G4 system?

A: This mic does not include a connector for any wireless system directly. To make this work with a Sennheiser G4 system, you will need to purchase the DPA Microdot connector for a Sennheiser system BH #DPDAD6034.

Q: 2. Can this adapter be used to connect to a dpa microphone for saxophone?

A: The Tentacle Sync DPA Microdot to 3.5mm TRS Microphone Adapter is specified for use with DPA lapel microphones. Although other DPA microphones may have compatible microdot connections, the Tentacle Sync would not be able to provide the power output they require to work properly.

Q: 3. Do these concealers have a back that snaps on?

A: thank you for your question. this unit is just the top portion of the concealer without a backing.

Q: 4. What plug do I use for lectrosonic I thought it was Ta5 but I only see TA4 on the 6060

A: You are correct Lectro uses a TA 5. That particular DPA doesn't come with a TA 5 connector. Only 3-Pin LEMO, 3.5mm Locking, MicroDot and TA4F.

Q: 5. Is this compatible with the Shure ADX1M?

A: Yes, the DPA Microphones DAD6010 Microdot to 3-Pin LEMO Adapter is compatible for use with the Shure ADX1M Digital Micro Bodypack Wireless Transmitter.

Q: 6. How would I use this microphone with a GoPro Hero5? I would like to keep it as simple as possible.

A: This DPA 4060 has a locking 3.5mm connector and it also requires 5 to 10V of plug-in power so I would not recommend it for use with the GoPro Hero5. The 4060 is really designed for use with a wireless transmitter, not for direct connection to a camera. Additionally, the 3.5mm GoPro mic adapter has a standard non-locking input so the mic will not be connected securely and it is very likely that the mic may require more voltage than the camera can supply. You definitely can use the DPA 4060 with a wireless mic system such as the Sennheiser EW 112P G4 Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System - A: 516 to 558 MHz (B&H # SEEW112PG4A) -- you can choose the frequency band. The wireless transmitter will supply the proper voltage for the mic and the wireless receiver will connect to the GoPro Pro 3.5mm Mic Adapter (B&H # GO35MA) without any problems. We also have other wireless mic systems that use the same type of locking connector and wiring as Sennheiser which would be compatible with with the 4060 mic. We can also help you to select a different mic if you do prefer to use a wired mic with the Hero5. Please contact us by phone or through live chat on the website for further assistance.

Q: 7. Is this compatible with the Audio ltd A10

A: Currently, Audio LTD is unavailable at B&H- and so we cannot test this combination. However, the DAD6003 should work based on available documentation on the A10 wireless system. On A10-TX, the ground is not terminated to the pin as is the case with the Sennheiser SK transmitters that feature a 3 pin Lemo.

Q: 8. (Sorry-- unable to edit previously submitted question about difference between two similar stereo pairs of 4061 being offered by B&H) Specifically, I'm wondering if there is any downside to the newer (I presume) model. That is, is it equal to, or better than, the older 4061, in every technical detail? Thank you. DG

A: The DPA Microphones d:screet Core 4061 is much improved over the original "legacy" 4061: as described on the B&H Webpage: DPA Microphones d:screet Core 4061 The Core 4061 miniature microphone amplifier delivers a 4 dB increase in dynamic range and a 14 dB reduction in THD (total harmonic distortion)

Q: 9. What comes in box of the DPA d:screet CORE 4061 lav?

A: Aside from the already mounted hi boost grid , the DPA d:screet CORE 4061 lavalier includes a low boost grid and a specifications card.

Q: 10. is this lavalier compatible with my Sennheiser EW 512P G4 wireless system? can I plug it straight into the transmitter?

A: Yes, the DPA Microphones 6060 CORE Subminiature Normal Sensitivity Omni Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Sennheiser Adapter is compatible with Sennheiser EW 512P G4 transmitters.
