Initially I thought it was a 4006, but then there is clearly a windsock extending some 1.5 in above the silver band that looks like a 4006 capsule. So I am not sure it is a 4006 now. There's also a funny looking box the mic is plugged into.

These two certainly do their own thing.

I am going with DPA as well. I think it is this windscreen

DPA Microphones | UA0896 Windscreen for 0.75" | UA0896

As for the box...I thought it was some source of wireless adapter, but then I saw a cord as well. So, I am lost.

I think "the box" exeryone is describing is a station ident foam block, possibly youtube definition isn't high enough to see which one.

I looked again and at another video on youtube, I now suspect it is a phantom power/pre-amp box. Possibly because it is on two seperate video's it might be her own personal mic and the phantom box is to interface with non-phantom desk's/small pa's.

Sure looks like a DPA. The only mics I've ever seen that look like that.

I can confirm the DPA in the studio comment... 2 omnis used in a vocal booth. They are some of the most audiophile (in a good way) folks that I've met. They just do things right.

Also a wonderful pair of people. Couldn't ask for a nicer couple...
