Category: Drum Mics

Drum mics are built to handle the sharp transients and high SPL of kits, from kick and snare specialists to overhead pairs for cymbals and room tone. Housing and mounting matter as much as capsule type here, since these mics often get clamped to hardware or tucked inside a kick drum.Think about how each mic will sit in the overall drum picture: close mics for punch and definition, overheads for balance and stereo image.
