The Audix DP5a, which is identical to the DP7 except for the condenser mics,
is a perfect compliment of microphones for a 5 piece kit. All mics perform
equally well whether it be on a live stage or in the studio.
Included in
the DP5a drum mic package is the D6, Audix's flagship kick drum mic, two- D2's
for rack toms, one D4 for floor tom, and the i5 for snare.
Also included are four D-Vice rim mount clips for every mic except the D6
kick drum mic, which comes with a heavy duty tension fit mic clip. Everything is
conveniently packaged in a foam-lined aluminum carrying case road case for safe
keeping when the mics are not in use.
The
Microphones:
D6 for kick
drum
The D6 has a frequency response of 30Hz-15kHz and is
characterized with a cardioid pick-up pattern. The D6 is designed to sound good
in any position and it is not dependent on finding the "sweet spot" of the drum.
The D6 capsule features the same legendary VLM technology that has made the D
series percussion and instrument microphones very popular for today's live
stages and recording studios.
i5 for
snare
The i5's cardioid polar pattern allows it to focus on the
specific instrument that is being miked while rejecting other instruments or
ambient noise on stage. With a smooth and uniform frequency response of 50 Hz-16
kHz and an ability to handle sound pressure levels in excess of 140 dB, the i5
can be used for a wide variety of applications and for all genres of
music.
D2s (2) for toms
For bringing
out the real, dynamic sound of your drum toms and congas, nothing beats the D2!
The D2 accurately reproduces the warmth and punch you listen for from
percussion, leaving out the muddy, indistinct "boom" that can mar recording. The
D2's natural warmth also makes it a great mic for saxophones and other woodwinds
requiring a true, sensitive, yet big, reproduction.
D4
for floor tom
Make sure your sound's low-end has that
propulsive kick! The D4 really puts that extra "oomph" in your kick drum, bass
amp, and other low instruments thanks to its flat, linear response. Since this
kit comes with the D6, Audix's premier kick drum mic, a good application for the
D4 with this kit would be the floor tom.
