Glen Trew Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Hello All. The UniFlex mini gooseneck cardioid, currently using the DPA 4080 miniature mic, has been refined. The differences are: 1) Shorter, thinner, sleeker brass head, making a much lower profile when bent. 2) Powder-coat matt black finish 3) 6-1/4 inch overall length Reminder for those unaware: The UniFlex is a miniature gooseneck mic using the DPA 4080 cardioid element, and terminated with either a TA5F connector for Lectrosonics, or a MicroDot connector for adapting to wireless transmitter brands. It is very similar to the DPA 4098, but with a much shorter mic head and rounder (cardioid) pickup pattern (the 4098 is a tighter lobe-type pattern). Plug it directly into a transmitter for a quick plant. The first batch is mostly sold out, though the last few were shipped to Trew Audio locations today (but may be spoken for already). Preparing for another run of 50 soon. Reports from the field have been very good. Pre orders accepted. Photos below are of the new version.

The Uniflex-4080 was not officially been discontinued, but there was a period where replacement wire screens (the interference tubes of the 4080 mic) were not available, so production stopped. But now DPA supplies us with the replacement screens for repairs. As of now we have just one UniFlex4080 left in stock from the most recent run. It's at the Nashville Trew Audio store, and available to the first who wants it! The next run is planned for January. Since there is just one for now, best to call 800-241-8994, and ask for the Nashville sales department. PS: This microphone in stock is terminated with the TA5 connector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil D Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Glen, I have the original 4080, but the wire screen is munted. Is it possible to have it modified by you guys if I ship it to you? Cheers, Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Trew Posted December 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Yes. Send it to the Nashville store to my attention. We have replacement screens to do the repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
