Review on 🎀 Enhanced Shure BETA 91A Half-Cardioid Condenser Kick-Drum Microphone with Built-in Preamp and Male XLR Output by Julie Nelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best mic for adding attack to a kick drum

If you're wondering why your kick mix doesn't sound like everyone else's, it's because you're not using this mic. It might not be the best standalone kick mic, but add another mic to it. like beta 52 or akg d112 or audx d6 gives hit click instantly. This mic adds tons of clarity so you get a rich kick drum sound that's more than just boom. Great microphone. If the drummer doesn't have a porthole in the kick drum, take it out so you can use this mic.

Pros
  • The half-cardioid kick mic delivers strong bass response and maximum gain before feedback. It features a two-position contour switch for maximum attack and definition, and a low-profile design.
Cons
  • confused
