Bass Guitar With Drum Machine Built In

This purchase replaced two of my 5 MKH8050's that went missing. They are great mics that there was no question I needed to replace. The Sennheiser MKH8050 (hypercardiod),and the other MKH mics, have a very smooth on and off-axis frequency response, are very quiet, and being RF condensers ( unlike almost all other condensers) are not affected by very humid conditions( no cracking/popping). I've used the MKH8050 on almost every instrument you can think off with outstanding sound: eg kick drum, bass/guitar amp, brass, woodwinds. acoustic guitar, banjo, violin/viola/cello/bass, kalimba, sitar, drum overhead, tabla, djembe, cajon, choir, classical style vocals ( mic'ed from few feet distance). Great for live sound and live recording. Rycote INV-3 are perfect shockmount clips to use with the 8050 ( and the 8040, 8020, 8090). I don't bother with the standard clips-esp. since the mics and the INV-3 shockmounts are very small and this is a bonus for video work. I don't do boom work but many write that this mic is one of the go-to choices for boom mics (esp indoors where off-axis pickup needs to be smooth).

I have 6 MXL 606's now- acquired incrementally over the last several years. I'm likely to buy more! I have used them with excellent results for snare, drum overhead x-y, bass kick drum, toms, acoustic guitar, electric guitar cabinets, bass guitar cabinets, concert 9' grand piano, all with excellent results running into a Focusrite 2i2 or 18i20. This mic is well suited to higher volume / percussive / fast transient sound sources.

Wow, Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Stand-up bass, Rack Toms, Drum Overheads, Violin... you name it these babies will make it sound STELLAR!

Maybe the best all around drum machine available.

I'm using it primarily for a drum overhead, but also for acoustic guitar. It has a really nice, sweet sound, and it seems well built (we'll see). I'm still experimenting, but already, I have been able to get really nice sounds. It has none of the harshness of condensers in the same price range. It does need a lot of gain, as people say, and the pickup pattern is going to take some figuring out. I'm also worried about the fragility inherent in the design, but I think it will be fine (not using it live). The included case and mount are nice too. I like it a lot.

Best Drum Machine i have ever had!! i would definitely recommend this!!!

I use this to hold a Boss Dr. Rhythm DR-3 drum machine. The fit is perfect, like it was made for this. It is well built and solid. The jaw opening is sufficiently sized that it fits all of my different mic stands with room to spare, but clamps down firmly, when securing it, via a screw bolt with a nice handle grip for hand tightening. No negatives. And the price is reasonable.

I use two, one to the left and the other to the right for mixer and drum machine

I am a guitar and bass hobbyist (actually a drummer / percussionist) and have always wanted to get a Snark since they are so easy to use (you don't have to plug anything in!) and they are so cheap; so why wouldn't you get one? I don't know what took me you so long--five years, but I finally got one and it has totally lived up to my expectations. Aside from tuning a guitar as soon as I pick one up, now I use it when I practice to see where I might be bending strings (again, I am not a guitarist, but if I were a guitar teacher I would recommend using it as a training tool). I have only been using it on Squier guitars and basses, which only have a light varnish on the headstock so be careful when using on Gibsons, acoustics or anything else with a sensitive finish. I am also excited to use it to check the timbre of my drum shells to know the actual note of the shell before I put heads on. I decided on the ST-2 since it allows you to turn off the vibration detection and use the built in microphone so I could even use it to check the notes of cymbals, triangles, glockenspiels, etc. I also wanted it for the built in metronome, but a little flashing light is not really worth it for me (as a drummer I have got to HEAR a pulse). For 10-15 dollars, why would you NOT have a Snark?

This is a very well built cable. I use it to connect my Zune player to my stereo for guitar and bass play-along practice.
