Introduction

Congratulations on your new 4560 CORE Binaural Headset Microphone.

Immersive sound is an emerging market and there are many possible uses for the 4560 CORE Binaural Headset Microphone.
The 4560 is an appealing solution for applications such as sound system documentation, soundscape analysis, sound quality
assessment, as well as sound for theatrical productions, podcasts and gaming.

The 4560 is made from a handpicked stereo pair of 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphones. With the use of our head
and ears as natural spacers/shadows and reflectors we can create a sonic 3D print of the sound around us. This is based on the
theory of the HRTF, which also means that the recorded material must be listened to via headphones or converted to a relevant
3D format that includes the height information.

The two 4060 mics are mounted on a
flexible, unobtrusive headset, which is
ergonomically designed to fit comfortably.
The headset adjusts easily to fit any ear
size as well as head shape.

Getting started Adjusting frame size

Two sizes of foam windscreens are supplied with the
4560 to secure the mics’ position in the ears and to oer
extra damping of wind noise. Gently place the desired
size onto the microphones.

Before adjusting the frame size, you need to loosen the
braided sleeving covering the cable. Remove the clothing
clip, grab the bottom of the sleeving and pull it gently
upwards, smoothing it up the entire length of the cable
to make it loose at the top.

To increase the frame size, hold the cable and frame
behind the earhooks and slowly pull the ear hooks away
from each other to the desired size.

Cable management and additional adjustment options see: dpamicrophones.com/4560

To decrease the frame size, hold the coils on the headset
frame and slowly pull the coils away from each other to
the desired size. After making the frame adjustments,
starting from the top, smooth the entire braided sleeving
back down the cable. Replace the clothing clip.
