The much anticipated mounts for both Bass and Cello are  here!

Bassists and cellists both have fallen in love with the 4099 Instrument microphone, and now DPA introduces special clips just for them to use with the 4099.  The 4099 is a unique instrument microphone with the same sonic purity as the legendary DPA studio microphones.

The 4099B combines the 4099 microphone and a new mounting system that has been designed specially for the double bass. Together they ensure the best possible mount and audio reinforcement is achieved when performing live. The 4099B attaches to the E and G string below the bridge, allowing the microphone capsule to be placed in the sweet spot between the bridge and fingerboard.

The 4099C combines the 4099 microphone and a new mounting system that is optimized for the cello. This ensures the best possible position and audio reinforcement is achieved when performing live. The 4099C attaches to the C and A string below the bridge and allows for microphone capsule placement in the sweet spot between bridge and fingerboard.  This provides a unique combination of natural string sound and high audio separation on stage.
