With the CORE by DPA the CORE 4060 for Extreme SPL gets an increase in both THD and dynamic range.
- Total harmonic distortion: < 1% THD up to 154 dB SPL peak
- Dynamic range: Typ. 90 dB
- Comes terminated to Microdot for excellent adaptability
CORE by DPA is a powerful new technology at the heart of our miniature microphones. We've minimized distortion. From a whisper to a scream, you will experience increased clarity and openness.
CORE is available for select models of Miniature Microphones and Headset Microphones Series.
CORE by DPA makes our miniature microphones even better.
- CORE by DPA minimizes distortion
- CORE by DPA expands dynamic range
- CORE by DPA sounds better
CORE by DPA Minimizes Distortion
When the output of the microphone no longer sounds like the input, we call this distortion. Although all systems and mics add some distortion, well-designed systems and mics exhibit less distortion. By increasing the dynamic range of the mics, CORE by DPA extends the point at which the distortion is measurable. In addition, CORE by DPA lowers the general distortion heard at all levels ‐ from soft to loud. That means a clearer more open sound across the entire microphone range.
CORE by DPA Expands Dynamic Range
CORE by DPA increases the dynamic range of Miniature and Headset Microphones up to14 dB depending on the specific type of capsule (see table below).
This gives users more flexibility by expanding the range of sounds that can be captured. In most cases, sound engineers prefer a mic with a wide dynamic range because they can use one mic to capture a wider range of sounds and in more applications.
- Increased dynamic range = Increased workable range
- Increased dynamic range = Less vulnerable to overload
CORE by DPA Sounds Better
An increased dynamic range and less general distortion means the sounds you capture come through loud and clear. From a whisper to a scream, CORE microphones exhibit increased clarity and increase openness in the sound across all SPLs ‐ from low to high.
Looking for sound close to our original, amazing 4006 in a miniature package? Check out CORE by DPA. We can't promise quite the same sound, but it is very close.
Who Should Choose CORE by DPA?
Anyone looking for the BEST achievable sound on the market should choose CORE by DPA as it provides consistency, clarity and amazing speech intelligibility in any application. Two applications where CORE by DPA stands out as a necessity are film recording and theater.
In the film recording industry, CORE by DPA can potentially save the sound crew a lot of time, effort and money. DPA microphones are known for their ability to withstand expressive acoustical sound pressure levels (SPL) without distortion and now CORE by DPA minimizes distortion even more. With such a large dynamic range, one microphone can be bodyworn on an actor that needs to whisper in one scene and scream in the next.
Similarly, theater applications often also need to capture wildly varying SPLs with one bodyworn microphone. In addition, when there are 30 or more mics on the stage, the clear and open sound of CORE by DPA will brighten the entire sound picture.
In addition, try putting a CORE mic on any musical instrument and you will hear it as never before.
Improving On The Best
The original microphones are both based on the same DPA capsule technology ‐ they have been, and still are, some of the most clear, consistent and robust miniature microphones you can find on the market. They have always been known for working across a wide dynamic range as well as exhibiting low distortion across all SPLs.
By introducing CORE by DPA, we are giving users a choice: Stay with our award-winning, amazing original miniature microphone solutions, or if you need to squeeze a little more performance out of your mics, choose CORE by DPA. CORE microphones also provide water and moisture resistance through nano coating and hermetic sealing of the sensitive electronics.
Understanding CORE by DPA
Dynamic range is the range of sound pressure that a microphone can handle. It is measured from the SPL at the noise floor (the mic's own self-noise) to the SPL at 1% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). At 1% THD, most people listening will be able to detect a change in sound quality.
