PL 33 : Extremely impressive mic

I must say this is an awesome bass drum microphone. It is of very good quality and is very robust.

The hypercardioid polar pickup pattern of this mic is a great plus for reducing feedback and bleed from other sources in the studio and on stage.

I have also used this mic for recording a bass cab to try and capture the the low end features and it sounds great.

Pros:

1) Quite sturdy and will take some beating.

2) The hypercardioid polar pattern is a great feature.

3) Comes with mic clip, velcro cable tie and bag for mic.

4) Frequency response(20 - 10,000 Hz) ensures that you can capture lots of low end from the likes of a bass drum, floor tom or bass cab.

Cons:

1) It doesn't produce the same natural attack compared to the likes of some more expensive mics but that's nothing a bit of compression and EQ won't fix.

Summary:

I would definitely vouch for this mic as it is an extremely solid, decent microphone for a very affordable price that has plenty of great features.
