Favorite DPA Microphones

I recently fell in love (and bought) the d:facto™ microphone, nothing sound as good as this one for Roch Voisine's voice.

On the last tour I chose the 4099 for cello and violin and d:facto™ for the vocals.

For the last 3 years I mixed the C2-MTL conferences in Montreal (the equivalent of the TED conferences) I chose the 4088 for all speakers of the conferences.
