Product Overview
Audix makes miking your drum kit easy by packing together a range of their stellar microphones in the DP5MICRO 5-piece Drum Microphone Package. With this kit in tow, drummers will have the following mics at their disposal: a D6 for the kick drum, three MicroD mics for the rack/floor toms, and an i5 for the snare. This package also includes four DVice rim clips, two heavy duty mic clips, and a sturdy road case to carry it from one gig to another. A tried and trusted company to many here at AudioProCT, Audix has built their stellar reputation around crafting application-specific microphones, and this package is perfect for live drums or in-studio tracking.
D6 for kick drum
The D6 has a frequency response of 30Hz-15kHz and is characterized with a cardioid pick-up pattern. The D6 is designed to sound good in any position and it is not dependent on finding the "sweet spot" of the drum. The D6 capsule features the same legendary VLM technology that has made the D series percussion and instrument microphones very popular for today's live stages and recording studios.
i5 for snare
The i5's cardioid polar pattern allows it to focus on the specific instrument that is being miked while rejecting other instruments or ambient noise on stage. With a smooth and uniform frequency response of 50 Hz-16 kHz and an ability to handle sound pressure levels in excess of 140 dB, the i5 can be used for a wide variety of applications and for all genres of music.
MicroD for rack and floor toms
When it comes to smooth and accurate response over a 40 Hz-20 kHz frequency response, the MicroD miniature condenser instrument mic will serve percussionists well in stage and studio environments. The hypercardioid polar pattern of this mic zeroes-in on percussive vibrations to present you with detailed sound. The MicroD is super compact and lightweight, making it a simple process to set up, tear down, and transport.
