Cardioid microphone designed for close miking of snare drums and toms
The DP30/C is designed for close miking toms and snare drums, and will take a direct hit from a drumstick. A right angle mic head is mounted to the gooseneck for easy positioning. The Drum Periscope is mounted parallel to the drum shell with the RM1 RimMount (sold separately).
Features:
- Very fast impulse response making it ideal for reproducing the rich low frequencies and full detail of the attack
- Shorter diaphragm settling time to prevent quieter attacks from being blurred by earlier loud attacks
- Extended frequency response to 30 kHz to capture a crisper and more realistic image
- Near perfect polar patterns that remain even across all frequencies and at any position within the pattern
- A right angle mic head is mounted to the gooseneck for easy positioning
- Stiff mini-gooseneck that will not move when the drums are hit hard
- The microphone capsule housing is designed to protect the microphone capsule and withstand a direct hit from a drumstick
- The electronics are housed in a cylindrical tube attached to the other end of the mini-gooseneck and provide a high level, low impedance output that will prevent RFI
- 145dB SPL capability ensures the mic will not overload from the loudest of drum attacks
- Heavy construction enables it to withstand the punishment of the road
