A package of 7 high-quality drum microphones provides accurate reproduction of the entire drum set for both live and studio applications. Various high-grade microphones are tuned to capture kick drum, tom/snare and cymbals efficiently. Compact and versatile microphones are suitable for precision and close mic recordings.
The C112 is a pro-quality large diaphragm dynamic capsule especially tuned for full response of kick drums. Mount this mic onto a short microphone stand, then position it just inside kick drum opening. Aim the mic directly at beater for more attack, or towards the far edge of the drum for a more resonant tone.
The TM1500 are high-quality medium diaphragm dynamic capsules especially tuned for full response of toms and snares. Mount clamps onto each mic, then attach each mic onto the hoop of a tom or snare drum. Angle and distance from mic to drumhead is adjustable. Position each mic toward the center of the drumhead for best results.
The CM1500 microphones, with built-in “10 dB pad” and “low frequency roll off," are directional small diaphragm condenser capsules especially tuned for full response of crash, hat and ride cymbals. Mount mic clips onto a pair of tripod boom stands. Slide these mics into the mic clips and position them to get desired delicate and silky highs.
(These condenser microphones require 48 V phantom power for operation.)
