Drum Pad With Guitar And Bass

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!

The stand is great for a drum pad. I use mine with my Performance Pad Pro and it is very stable and fully adjustable. I am impressed with the quality and think I will have this around for many many years.

This is the best Drum Pad Ive ever seen or used.  Simplicity makes it great....no menu (no aggravation)...reverb/distortion, volume, tuning, and selection knobs...and a little button that will give you an alternate sound to each setting. Its almost like analog and fun to use...and its currently not all that expensive. A mono output on the back panel and a stereo headphones out - also on the back panel - (which I use to connect to a mixer with a 1/4 TRS to Double !/4 TRS Cable). It solves a lot of percussion problems - if you lack a drummer at times or all the time.

Great for drum overheads and guitar amps. I'd highly recommend them if you are looking to get into ribbon microphones.

These mics give an incredible vibe and are very useful from guitar amps to drum overheads.

This allowed me to mount my Alesis drum control pad. It is very stable and holds up to abuse.

Ideal if you play bass or guitar and sing. It gives you space from your instrument.

Very nice mic! Great for acoustic guitar but also great for drum over heads!!!Best deal for this price!
