Description

Designed specifically for kick-drum recording applications, the microphone has a thin diaphragm to enhance the low frequency performance. Its warm sound is realized by the original C414 transformer, especially impressive at high signal levels.

The D12 VR features three active filter presets to match its sound shape with the kick drums character. When activated, the output level is automatically reduced by 10 dB. The filter settings can be controlled using a switch on the microphone body. Without phantom power, the microphone operates in passive mode and delivers the instruments pure sound.

Features

Active Dynamic Microphone: Tailored for bass-heavy instruments like kick drums, bass guitars, and tuba, offering rich, detailed low-end response

Integrated Bass Resonator: Enhances low frequencies for a warm and powerful sound signature

Selectable EQ Modes: Features three active filter presets to adapt the microphone's response to different tonal preferences and instruments

High SPL Handling: Capable of handling sound pressure levels up to 164 dB without distortion

Cardioid Polar Pattern: Isolates the desired sound source while reducing background noise and feedback

Durable Vintage Design: Combines a retro aesthetic with modern engineering for robust stage and studio performance

Phantom Power Operation: Requires phantom power for active EQ modes, ensuring optimal performance and flexibility

Shock-Absorbing Mount: Reduces handling noise and vibrations for cleaner recordings

Wide Applications: Ideal for kick drums, bass cabinets, and other low-frequency instruments in live and studio settings
