The DPA BC4099 is a clip that connects a DPA 4099 Instrument Microphone to an acoustic upright bass, with several excellent placement possibilities on the instrument.
The microphone and its mounting system are both designed and optimised for the double bass, so the best mounting and audio reinforcement is achieved when performing live.
The clip attaches to the E- and G-string below the bridge, which places the microphone in the sweet spot between the bridge and the fingerboard.
