M88TG : Best microphone for natural sounding kick drum.

11 years ago

For John Mayer style kick drum sound. Suitable also for tom-toms. Once I used it on a guitar amp and guitar player was really amused about the sound. Would be great vocal mic for jazz singers as it has natural warm sound that you do not have to EQ a lot to get it working. Does not have nasty sibilance sounds when high gained. It is my all time favourite dynamic mic!

If you buy this mic, then this is a must: Beyerdynamic WS59 windscreen. If you use this mic inside of kick drum, then this windscreen helps to save the mic from fast powerful transients that could hurt the mic.
