Hey All,
Just have a good drummer friend who is looking to mount a mic within his closed head bass drum. (since he has plenty of kits that are not closed, and would like to make mic'ing it convenient for the HE)
Right now he is leaning towards something like the Beta91a for the reason that it will be much less obtrusive to just mount it to the inside of the shell, than using the arm he has to mount a stand mounted mic inside it.
He is not going for a super hyped sound, but something that can be worked with, since he does know how to tune drums well so the HE would have a good starting place.
So just wanted to get your thoughts if you think this will work well, if there is anything he should be worried about, and if there were any other mics under $300 that would work much better for this application.
Thanks Much,
Phil
