AKG D112 MKII Pro Dynamic Bass Microphone

The AKG D112 MKII Pro Dynamic Bass Microphone is a descendant of AKG's D112 and earlier D12 dynamic microphone, and is widely known for its ability to handle high-level signals from bass drums and bass guitars in the studio. The microphone has been designed with a low resonance frequency and can handle very high transient signals with low distortion. It has a large dynamic range with a high signal-to-noise ratio and the capacity to input high sound levels without distorting. High frequency response has been tailored to keep both bass drum and bass guitar clearly distinguishable in the mix. A built-in windscreen makes the D112 also suitable for high SPL instruments such as the trombone and tuba.

The cable is engineered to be both quiet and durable, and is well suited for critical recording and broadcast situations.

Studio Elite 4000 Series cables are made from 24 AWG OFC copper wire that's wrapped with PE insulation and a conductive PVC inner shield.

98% braided shield offers protection from EMI and RFI noise.
Twin-conductive PVC inner shielding provides 100% coverage of the core conductor. It helps keep the cable's signal from radiating and affecting nearby cables, and also helps prevent external EMI from penetrating to the cable's core.
24 AWG oxygen-free stranded copper inner core provides the best possible conductivity.
Cotton yarn reduces electrostatic and microphonic noise.
All solder points shrink-wrapped for protection.
Neutrik XX silver connectors offer high conductivity.

AKG D112 MKII Pro Reviews

Mk2 Swivel Mount is a bad design.

By Carlos
Rated 1 out of 5

AKG D112 mk1 is a classic mic. The mk2 version is a terrible re-design. I purchased 2 for an install and in less than 1 year of regular use the swivel joint hardware came loose and fell apart. It is not designed to be tightened by any standard screwdriver. AKG refused to repair these mics after the warranty of 2 years. These mics are unusable now. Don't waste your money on AKG products if you expect longevity & good customer service.

The gold standard for bass drum recording and the road

I have one D112 already and love it. I wanted to compare to some other bass drum mics to purchase a second, and found that this most accurately reproduces the sound. Bottom line, it sounds great. And it's rugged and has design improvements over the first version (attaches directly to your mic stand). If you're looking for a good bass drum microphone, this is it. If you want to try to save a few bucks, you'll come back to this one anyway. It's the best
