[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 84117, member: 34"] Re: Secondary kick mic .... I'm a little late to the party and am not responding to anyone in particular. [B]I own these kick mics:[/B] [LIST] [*]D6 - sounds great on just about everything, kicks with and without holes in the resonant heads. Can get a nice jazz sound, rock sound, or metal sound depending on EQ. [*]e901 - a hit or miss mic, but when it's good, it's AMAZING. Requires varying amounts of EQ to sound like I want, and generally it's more drastic EQ than the D6. Some kick drums just don't work with it. [*]e902 - kind of like a D6, but not quite there. Seems to be good on bass cabs and on kick drums if I have to. I sometimes use it with the e901 to get a thump/click combo. [*]SM91 - only own it becuase it's on riders. Works ok. [/LIST] [B]Mics I used to own:[/B] [LIST] [*]D112 - sounds like someone slapping the drum head with an open hand. Not cool unless you're a metalhead. [*]Beta52A - sounds OK for jazz kick sounds and on bass rigs, I just hated it because it takes up so much space so I sold it [/LIST] My first choice these days is the e901, and if it doesn't work out, then the D6. I have a pile of D6s and they get used on floor toms, bass rigs, etc. Just the other week there was a drummer with no hole in the resonant head, so I stuck the e901 on the beater side kind of under the snare aiming at where the beater hit. It sounded great. [/QUOTE]
