Denmark - Trumpet player Randy Brecker has adopted the DPA 4099 clip mic for his international tours. Brecker put the mic through its paces during a two-week tour which took place in Lisbon, Singapore and Finland.

"It's the first time I've ever had a so-called 'clip on' that not only covers the full sonic range of the horn but, due to the ingenious bell-clip, has virtually no valve noise whatsoever," he says. "I think it actually improves my playing. This tour was acoustic, and in that kind of situation I would never have used clip-ons in the past."
