DPA d:vote™ CORE 4099 Mic, Loud SPL with Clip for Cello

For perfect PA amplification and live recording of a cello choose the DPA d:vote™ CORE 4099 for Loud SPL, which includes a mounting clip meticulously designed and optimized for the violoncello. It offers a sound that is considerably more natural than any internal microphone or pickup. The clip attaches to the C and A string below the bridge. This places the microphone capsule in the sweet spot between the bridge and fingerboard, offering a unique combination of natural string sound and high audio separation on stage.
