Set of 8 drum mics with 1 bass drum mic, 1 snare mic, 3 tom mics and 3 overhead mics



LIVE SOUND OR RECORDING
The DP8 drum pack is a premium ensemble of microphones designed to mic
a five-piece kit with accuracy and fine control. Kick, snare, rack toms and floor
tom mics feature Audix VLMTM capsule technology for natural and precise sound
reproduction in high SPL applications. The ultra-compact M1280BHC hi-hat mic
and M1280B overhead cymbal mics capture complex timbres and wide dynamic
ranges. Included are DVICE rim mounts eliminating the need for bulky mic stands.
? Professional set of 8 drum mics for stage or studio
? Mics work in tandem to replicate each drum accurately and independently
? M1280 condensers for overheads and hi hat perfectly reproduce transients and
timbre
? Easy to set up and position

CLOSE MIKING
The D6 for kick drum and the i5 for snare are considered must haves for
every drummer. The kick and snare are considered the core of any drum kit
and the foundation for every groove. Close miking ensures that they will be
captured in the mix. If either the kick or the snare is unable to be heard, there
is simply no groove. The D2 and D4 are also industry standards for toms and
floor toms. Being high SPL dynamic microphones, the i5, D2, D4 and D6 excel
at ?close miking?. These four microphones, in conjunction with this miking
technique, are guaranteed to capture the attack and percussion sound of
each drum. Also, by having the mic close to the source of the sound, it helps
to isolate and control the sound of each drum.

OVERHEAD MIKING
The M1280B cardioid condenser microphones are perfect for overhead
applications. With an extremely small footprint of just 12mm diameter and
67mm in total length, mics become nearly invisible on video or IMAG feeds.

THE BLEND
With contemporary music and with the volumes typically generated on stage,
it is more practical and effective to create a blended effect of close miking
and stereo image of the entire kit from overhead. The D6 will help provide the
earthshaking lows and the attack of the kick; the i5 will reinforce the depth
and crack of the snare; the D2 and D4 capture the attack and decay of rack
and floor toms; the amazing off axis rejection of the M1280BHC is perfect
for hi-hat and with M1280B as overheads, drums will maintain their sound
integrity and critical presence for both stage and studio regardless of the size
of the room or PA system.
