I realize this is an industry standard, but this has to be genre specific, right? I am not experienced with recording by any means, but the thought of using an md for metalcore double bass craziness drives me bonkers I have also heard of a 57 being used, and all I can say is that I could see these on like an indie pop type of recording where the bass is kinda there but more subconcious than anything else, but not on a metal recording, am I right? We have a pair of AKG condensers I can never remember the exact model because they aren't mine we use as overheads, we slap a 57 on the snare, and an Audix d6 on the kick In the past we have gotten a really farty ringy kick tone, but we are using someone else's kit for this recording, so I'm not sure that this is gonna be as much of a problem. The will most likely give you some midrange presence but not a ton of click or low-end punch.

We had a small gig this weekend where we had to provide the PA and my drummer decided to rent a MD for his bass drum just for kick pun intended. I was pleasantly surprised. I did have to boost the lows a bit, but the result was a really tight sound that had just the right balance of thump and click technical terms here With the typical bass drum mic, his kick is always too clicky or too bassy. I'm wondering how it performs in a studio environment, seeing it is not suggested very often as a bass drum mic but rather has a tom mic. How does it compare to a D or Beta52A when recording? The fact that it could serve on bass and guitar cabs, as well as some vocals makes it a very interesting purchase. I have used it on kick with great success - it's a bit more "linear" than the Beta52 or D, and totally useable. Although last time i tracked drums I used an SM7 inside and was lovin it. I usually also have a RE20 outside the kick close to the resonant head or if there's no head near the edge of the drum. I use one occasionally, and have also used a Depends on the song, the kick, etc.

Main problem with vintage mics like the original and Beyer M is that there are no spare parts available; if it breaks, you can't get it repaired.

When the going gets tough, should the tough get a Sennheiser's drum kit microphone set? With the many different combinations of microphone types and positions used by recording engineers when miking up drum kits, Sennheiser have taken the very sensible step of compiling two sets of mics that have been proven to give good results. The MDs are specifically designed for drum use particularly snare and toms , their short bodies solving most of the positioning problems experienced with standard microphones. The integral clip assembly enables the mic to be mounted directly onto the drum rim, eliminating the need for stands. The MDs are dynamic cardiod mics with a usable frequency range of 40Hz to 18kHz, and although they may not appear very sensative at 1. As with the rest of the mics in the kit, the body terminates in a conventional, balanced XLR connector. The MD is most often seen on toms or even used for vocals, so it may seem an odd choice for a bass drum mic. However, it is a very flexible microphone, capable of withstanding huge sound pressure levels, and has a decent amount of bass extension — if ever a dynamic mic deserved to be called a Jack of all trades and master of most of them, the MD is probably it.

While I like the idea of having this mic, I have to think about it's real practical application in my case, which would probably be kick drum, since I don't do much acoustic stuff So, my question is, on a stage full of marshall stacks, would an MD really do the kick drum any justice, or should I just hold out and get something like an Audix D6 for kick? I don't really think I can buy both at once.

Thats it! Placement suggestions? For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. Jamming something between the button and the body of the clip disables the release function and the mic stays on the clip. Originally posted by Hardtailed I've never even met a RE20!

MD is the most versatile of the bunch--good for bass cabs, guitar if you want it to be 'darker' sounding--great for distance mics. Posted February 18, Good cut through the mix presence AND still sounds like a drum! Sign In Sign Up. MrKnobs Posted February 16, I swear they are all sharing equipment. I have the D and the D6 and both work great for metal. An RE20 on kick is a sound to behold - my favorite on kick, by far. How does it compare to a D or Beta52A when recording? Depends on the song, the kick, etc. I'm thinking of buy a mic for kick, but would not use it that much. Matthew Knischewsky Sr. Do you have to buy it used these days?
