T2 : Bass Drum Mic

So I bought this microphone for my bass drum. It really is a killer mic for bass drum as someone else said on a previous review.

I only have it for a day, so I will update my review after I use it for some time and on other sources such as percussion, bass amp, double bass etc.

The first thing I noticed is that it is really well-built!! It was neatly packed inside a firmly closed plastic bag and inside its case.

The case is really cool and looks like it will protect the mic.

The shock mount provided is also cool but the part that holds the microphone is plastic and doesn't look like it will last. Truth be told it looks amazing though.

Now the buttons on the mic look stable and not easily moved something that is really good having in mind that other microphones with easily moving buttons can have their settings changed without noticing before the recording.

Now about the sound... I used it with a Tascam model 24 console and on -20db pad to record an 18" bass drum ( i am a jazz drummer) and the sound was amazingly true to its source.. I could really hear my bass drum's sound as I expect it to be and as I hear it live. I can hear the attack, low end, the sustain, and I'm really excited.

In my opinion the mic gives a slight vintage character to the sound but then again i will update my review after i record more with it.
