Putting mics on a drum kit used to be "hit or miss." Mismatched mics
can cause even the best drums to sound too thin or too boomy. And in
today's music, the drums are more important than ever in establishing
the groove, so why risk disaster when Audix - a world leader in
instrument mics - offers up specially designed drum mic packages that
deliver a rich, balanced sound. Investing in an Audix DP-5A mic set
ensures your drums are heard loud, clear and punchy on stage or in the
studio! They're a great resource for any musician or sound engineer who
needs a simple, dependable solution to miking percussion.
The Audix DP-5A Drum Mic Package Package Includes:
- One i5 snare mic
- Two D-2 tom mics
- One D-4 floor tom mic
- One D-6 kick drum mic
- Four D-Vice gooseneck clips
- Heavy-duty aluminum road case
i5 snare mic
The i5 is a dynamic microphone that you can use on stage and in the
studio. With its sleek styling and unique probe cap design, the i5
features a durable cast zinc alloy body and black E-coat finish. The
i5's cardioid polar pattern allows it to focus on the snare while
rejecting other instruments or ambient noise. With a smooth and uniform
frequency response of 50Hz-16kHz and an ability to handle sound
pressure levels in excess of 140dB, the i5 can be used for a wide
variety of applications and for all genres of music.
D-2 tom mics
For bringing out the real, dynamic sound of your drum toms and congas,
nothing beats the D-2! The D-2 accurately reproduces the warmth and
punch you listen for from percussion, leaving out the muddy, indistinct
"boom" that can mar recording. The D-2's natural warmth also makes it a
great mic for saxophones and other woodwinds requiring a true,
sensitive, yet big, reproduction.
D-4 floor tom mic
Make sure your low tom has that propulsive kick! The D-4 really puts
that extra "oooomph" in your floor tom, kick drum, bass amp, or other
low instruments thanks to its flat, linear response.
D-6 kick drum mic
The D6 cardioid drum mic delivers! A conveniently sized mic with the
big sound that drummers want, the D6 is designed to sound good in any
position and it is not dependent on finding the "sweet spot" of the
drum. The capsule features the same legendary VLM technology that has
made Audix D series percussion and instrument microphones very popular
for today's live stages and recording studios. Utilizing the same low
profile mounting clip as the D series mics, the D6 will work with Audix
D-Vice and D-Flex clips.
