Description

The Avantone ADM is a professional dynamic microphone designed specifically for snare drums, delivering the familiar punch and clarity engineers and performers rely on in both studio and live sound environments. Known for its balanced, industry-standard sound profile, the ADM captures crisp attack, detailed midrange presence, and solid low-end definition, making it a dependable choice for modern drum recording and reinforcement.

Now in its second generation, the ADM offers an expanded upper frequency response and improved low-frequency performance for greater versatility across a wide range of instruments. While it excels on snare drum, it is equally effective on rack toms, percussion, and guitar cabinets, providing consistent results with minimal setup effort. Its cardioid pickup pattern helps focus on the intended sound source while reducing unwanted bleed from surrounding instruments on stage or in the studio.

Built for long-term reliability, the ADM features a rugged all-metal construction with die-cast housing and durable brass and steel grille components. The microphone also includes Avantone’s precision locking shockmount system, designed to keep placement secure even during high-impact performances. Finished in Avantone’s distinctive Cabernet red with black and polished nickel accents, the ADM combines professional performance with a standout visual design suited to any recording or live production setup.
