Earthworks DM6 SeisMic Supercardioid Condenser Kick Drum Microphone
Get the kick drum sound you've been searching for quickly and easily with the Earthworks DM6 SeisMic Kick Drum Microphone. Unlike many kick drum mics that use a dynamic capsule to handle the high sound pressure levels coming from a drum or bass amp, the DM6 uses an innovative condenser capsule that delivers a rich detailed sound with a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response—all while being able to withstand SPLs up to 150 dB.

The mic capsule features a supercardioid pickup pattern that focuses sound capture tightly on the bass drum or bass amp, helping to greatly reduce bleed from other instruments and keep feedback from onstage monitors under control. The mic features an XLR connector and requires 48V phantom power for the condenser capsule. An M2-R ball-mount mic clip is provided that allows you to quickly and easily mount the DM6 to any standard mic stand or boom and precisely adjust the positioning for optimal results. A windscreen is also included.

THE Kick drum mic

By Richard
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2024-02-29

I usually don't buy mics without hearing them first, but on a trusted friend's recommendation, I bought this one. I'm glad I listened to him. I was able to use this quickly on 4 different kicks in the same room on the same system. 3 kicks with a hole in the front head, one without. All for - NO EQ and the kick sounded great! I just came off another show with another more expensive condenser kick mic and had to work to get a good sound. I was pleasantly surprised and will be adding another to my inventory soon.
