[QUOTE="Steve Milner, post: 14588, member: 9"] Re: What kick drum mic would you use? I have been using the Sennheiser e902 as my go to kick mic, pretty much since it came out. My reasons for going to it were probably a bit silly.... I have seen the Dave Matthews Band live a stupid amount of times, and have always loved the kick sound they get... they have always posted on their site, a full list of gear and mics, and when they went from a two mic setup down to just the e902 (pretty much right as it came on the market), I figured it was worth a listen. They have since been using an e902 (low) & e901 (Hi) combo (according to the current list on the site).... which I have not tried yet, but they have stuck with the 902 at least. I have had nothing but great results with the 902 myself and continue to carry it as my go to kick mic. FYI... I did a gig the other day where I had to use an sm57 on kick... and surprise surprise... it did a good job. I can't say that I would switch to it full time, but for that specific, low volume gig, it did everything I needed it to do. [img]index.php?t=getfile&id=48&private=0[/img] [/QUOTE]
