Audix Dpquad

Description

Drum Microphone Kit 4 Audix DP QUAD pack The simplest and most effective combination of microphones needed to capture the depth and sound image of a complete drum kit. With a D6 for the kick drum, an i5 for the snare drum, and two ADX51s for stereo overhead miking, the DPQUAD aims to create a perfect blend of close-up and overhead miking. The D6 and i5 are dynamic microphones with high SPL, excellent for close-up miking, a technique necessary to capture the attack in percussive sounds. The D6 will help bring out all the bass in the kick drum sound, while the i5 will reinforce the depth and characteristic attack of the snare drum. These two microphones are the heart of any drum kit and the foundation for every groove, making them a must-have for all drummers. The ADX51 is a pre-polarized condenser microphone with a 14mm gold-sputtered diaphragm, designed for overhead applications. Depending on placement, the ADX51 has been designed for the high frequencies of toms and cymbals. Overhead ambient miking supports the "less is more" theory; in fact, using two overhead microphones will better capture transients and tones, and will also provide a natural balance of the kit with a completely coherent phase.
