Description

The Lauten Audio Kick Mic is a bold reimagination of bass drum recording, crafted to deliver powerful, mix-ready sound straight from inside your drum. Designed specifically for capturing the essence of kick drums, this compact, road-ready condenser mic offers instant attack, clear low-end definition, and natural performance dynamics, all from a single internal position. Its unique architecture combats common issues like low-frequency buildup and internal reflections, ensuring your sound stays punchy and focused without requiring extensive post-processing. Whether you're tracking in the studio or performing live, Kick Mic consistently delivers that chest-thumping impact modern drummers and engineers crave.

At the heart of the Kick Mic is Lauten Audio's custom KC608 capsule, which preserves polar pattern integrity all the way down to 50Hz, an essential feature for accurately capturing the core energy of a bass drum. With its integrated filter system, hybrid circuitry, and noise-rejecting design, the mic allows for effortless tonal shaping and minimizes unwanted bleed from other drums or cymbals. A built-in 180 swivel mount ensures precise positioning even in tight spaces, while its compatibility with internal bass drum mounting systems offers flexibility for touring and stage use. Simply put, the Kick Mic makes kick drum capture easier, cleaner, and more musical from the moment you hit record.
