What's your favorite affordable drum mic? Which ones do you want me to check out?

@thomasberdal3049 3 года назад

Drum set with only sm57's lol

@MarcBecker_Music 3 года назад

I like the EV PL 33 on Kick and a pair of T.Bone RB 500 ribbon microphones as overhead or room mics. I would be great to see a comparison between the RB500s and the SE Electronics X1Rs.

@daedricvisions8981 3 года назад

Audix Dp7 drum mic set. Absolutely amazing mics. Just replace the drum clamps for stands.

@nitraus666 3 года назад

In the last months I fell in love with Shure PG52. It's kinda poor man's Beta 52, but with the right placement it actually just needs a cut around 250 hz - and I like it better than the Beta 52. As you can guess, I prefer less pre-eqd mics.

@codycreepcore 3 года назад

I don't know if they are still made, but Samson had a drum mic kit with 7 mics ($350 approx), and the Kick mic the Qkick was impressive sounding for such a cheap mic.

Thanks again for this video. As I am a home studio producer, I'm always looking for versatile mics that can be placed everywhere. As my drumroom sucks because of the low height I was trying out different methods. But since years I am interested in the X1R as room mics or overheads as well as guitar mics. So I even prefered the X1Rs in the video as room mics. This is a good chance to get some, thanks for your work Kohle!

Great as usual. Ive gotten amazing drum sounds, especially kicks with pressure sensitive (PZM from radio shack even) microphones. Never actually used ribbons but i collect stange mics and they give me distinctive druns... Even back in the 80's wuth a 4 track cassette. Now some of those mics like my EV re10 are worth something again and i bought them for like 50 cents to a buck at garage sales. Decent placement and eq goes a long way but listen. You know blah blah dont just copy a formula as the surprises are part of the fun.
