CAD D85 Overview

The CAD D85 is a compact dynamic microphone, sporting a cardioid pickup pattern for reducing unwanted noises from the sides and rear. Featuring a custom-tailored frequency response optimized for mid to high-frequency instruments, this mic rolls off the low end and gently attenuates the highs for reduced harshness, making it ideal for snare drums and woodwinds.

The compact design makes the D85 easy to position while avoiding obstruction, helping to not only reduce the likelihood of being struck (when mounted on a drum), but also keeping it out of view during live applications. The sturdy metal construction ensures this mic will stand up to the rigors of live, touring, and studio use.
