d:screet 4560 Core+ Binaural Headset with MicroLock

The 4560 Core+ Binaural Headset Microphone is, in its essence, a pair of 4060 Core+ Miniature Omnidirectional Microphones that are mounted on two earhooks (as known from the 4266 Flex type of headset). The microphones are a stereo pair; two handpicked 4060s, selected on sensitivity within ±1.5 dB.

The flexible headset is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably and securely. It adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape. Foam windscreens are supplied with the microphones to secure the position in the ear and to offer some damping of wind noise.

Core+ microphones have the same dynamic range, noise level, and distortion level as the original Core, while providing even more clarity across the entire dynamic range at any SPL.

MicroLock connectors add a locking mechanism and upgraded materials for a longer lifespan when compared to MicroDot, while still being fully backwards compatible with MicroDot connectors (although please note that the lock will not engage unless both components are MicroLock.) Adapters for most standard transmitters and other inputs are available here.

Binaural recording is a technique that uses two microphones to create an immersive 3D stereo sound experience for the listener. When correctly accomplished, these recordings allow the listener to hear sounds like they are actually in the same position as the person who did the actual recording.

Binaural recordings differ from other stereo techniques because binaural uses two omnidirectional mics positioned close together (as if in a listener's ears) to replicate the sound pick up of the human ear as close as possible. Stereo recording uses cardioid microphones with a larger space between them.
