Description

The Chord DM04 is a dynamic vocal microphone built for singers and performers who want clear, honest sound from an affordable handheld mic. It uses a hypercardioid polar pattern, which picks up sound mainly from the front while rejecting noise from the sides and rear. That helps keep the focus on your voice and reduces feedback when you are working close to monitors or a busy stage setup.

Construction is all-metal with an ergonomic body that sits comfortably in the hand, and the mic is rated to handle high sound pressure levels (SPLs) without distorting. This makes it a sensible choice not just for vocals but also for loud acoustic instruments. The frequency response runs from 50Hz to 15kHz, with a sensitivity of -74dB (±3dB) and an impedance of 600 Ohms. An on/off slide switch lets you mute quickly between takes or songs.

Each DM04 comes ready to use out of the box. You get a 5 metre (16ft) XLR to 6.3mm jack lead, a microphone clip and adaptor for mounting on a standard stand, and an ABS carry case to keep everything together between gigs. The mic connects via a male XLR, measures 180 x 47mm and weighs 290g, so it is light enough to hold through a full set without your arm tiring. It is a straightforward, reliable option for live performance, rehearsal rooms and home recording alike.

Frequently Asked

What polar pattern does the DM04 use?

It uses a hypercardioid pattern, which captures sound mainly from directly in front of the capsule and rejects sound from the sides and back. This helps reduce background noise and feedback on stage.

Is the DM04 suitable for both vocals and instruments?

Yes. It is a dynamic mic capable of handling high SPLs, so it works well for vocals as well as louder acoustic instruments where accurate reproduction matters.

What is included in the box?

You get the microphone, a 5 metre XLR to 6.3mm lead, a microphone clip and adaptor, and an ABS carry case.

How does it connect to a mixer or interface?

The mic has a male XLR output. The supplied lead terminates in a 6.3mm jack, and you can swap to an XLR-to-XLR cable if your mixer or interface has XLR inputs.

Does the microphone have a mute switch?

Yes, it has an on/off slide switch on the body so you can mute quickly between songs or takes.

What is the frequency response?

The DM04 responds across 50Hz to 15kHz, which suits vocals and general performance use.
