Md421 kick drum

We had a small gig md421 kick drum 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.

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. Why do I need cymbal overheads? I'll just use SM58s on the vocals. It also does well on guitar cabinets and bass cabinets.

I feel like you can get a lot of different kick drum sounds out of it and they all sound good. MrKnobs Posted February 17,

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. Technically, the MD seems similar to any other dynamic cardioid mic, but the resulting sound is clearly defined, yet at the same time, solid. I seem to recall that the originals were tested on a tank firing range, with the result that they didn't distort until they reached the kind of SPLs that would make an average human's eardrums meet in the middle of his head!

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 Forums New posts Search forums. Waaaay too much low end. Recommended Posts. Skip to content. I'm creating this thread to get some suggestions on kick mics I might like based on the criteria mentioned above. It's a good all around mic, and can sound great on kick. Weathered Posted February 14, Author Topic: Sennheiser MD good for kick drum? Liking the D better for bass cab now. Posted February 16, I still have not tried the Beta

.

If you must have a , you'll just have to wait and get one. I have one and I use it on floor tom most of the time and a Beta on kick. But then I always know I'm gonna use eq to taylor it anyway. Quick links. I can certainly use a a lot of the time and get a tone I can live with, but usually I just prefer the RE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options Otherwise, it sounds too mushy. An RE20 on kick is a sound to behold - my favorite on kick, by far. Then comes the actual beater, they have plastic, wood, and felt also pads to put on the batter head to give a different sound or to prolong the head's life. Seems like a good deal since this mic can serve more than one purpose. I've been using a Beta 52 with a Focusrite Twintrack Pro for a while now. One day I'll add one to mine. How does it compare to a D or Beta52A when recording?
