Frequently Asked Questions - D:screet Core 6061 DPA

What is the DPA D:screet Core 6061 microphone used for?

The DPA D:screet Core 6061 is a miniature omnidirectional condenser microphone designed for high-quality sound reinforcement and recording of instruments, speech, and theater applications.

Does the D:screet Core 6061 require phantom power?

Yes, it requires 48V phantom power. It must be used with a DPA MicroDot to XLR adapter (included) that provides the necessary power.

Can I use this microphone with wireless systems?

Yes, the MicroDot connector allows direct connection to DPA wireless adapters or other compatible transmitters. Check the wireless system's compatibility.

What is the polar pattern of the 6061?

The D:screet Core 6061 has an omnidirectional polar pattern, meaning it captures sound equally from all directions.

How do I clean the microphone?

Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the microphone capsule and cable. Avoid contact with liquids and never use solvents.

What is the maximum SPL handling?

The microphone can handle up to 144 dB SPL peak before clipping, making it suitable for high-volume sound sources.

What is the weight of the microphone?

The capsule alone weighs approximately 7.5 grams. The full set with cable and adapter is slightly heavier.

Is the D:screet Core 6061 waterproof?

No, it is not waterproof. Keep the microphone dry and avoid exposure to moisture to prevent damage.

Can I replace the cable?

The cable is detachable via the MicroDot connector. You can order replacement cables from DPA or authorized dealers.

You've never heard a subminiature like this before

• Amazingly tiny 3 mm capsules
• CORE by DPA technology
- Renowned DPA sound

We've taken the amazing CORE by DPA technology and shrunk it down to fit into our 3 mm (.12 in) subm nature mics. Despite their small size, they pack the audio power of our larger, award-winning DPA mics. So now you don't have to compromise on sound to focus on aesthetics.

Precision engineering and miniscule optimizations of our capsule technology have created a subminiature that significantly outperforms all other risks in their class and beyond.

These subminiatures have a lower noise floor than any other 3 mm capsule on the market and they are better able to capture high sound pressure levels without distortion as well. In terms of technical specifications, both the discrete ^TM 6061 and the d'fine ^TM 6066 have a noise floor of only 26 dB(A), which is exactly on par with the 5 mm (.20 in) DPA miniature capsules.

Stainless steel construction makes the mic extremely durable. It can tolerate high temperatures and is resilient against impacts and resistant to abrasion. The subminiature mics use the same size cable ( 1.6 mm (.06 in)) and the same rugged cable relief as on our 5 mm mics. The cables are extremely durable, do not become entangled and are equipped with an inner core made of Kevlar that withstands rough pulls. A strain relief is integrated in the mic housing to strengthen the assembly.

Almost invisible yet totally unforgettable

discrees™ 6060 CORT Subminiature Microphones are only three millimeters in size and they pack the audio power of larger, award-winning DPA mics. Despite their unobtrusive size, they are exceptionally clear, consistent and durable – three qualities that truly matter.

The mic housing resembles the well-known DPA logo with the tiny grid holes adding to the mics' resilience to water and sweat. The mic cap can easily be removed for cleaning. When you put the cap back on, a tactile and audible "click" ensures that it has been secured properly.

It's the only 3 mm me that gives you the DPA some quality that you know and love.

8-way Clip for Subminiature

When used as a lavaler, a special rotatable clip is available. The 360" clip allows the lay to be mounted in eight positions, chosen in 45" incremental steps. This makes it very easy to change the mcs from women's to men's shirts (left- to right-buttoned) or even t-shirts and the like where the neckline is used.
