Bass Drum Mic Comparison Shure, Audix, SE, Lewitt, AKG, Audio Technica, , Ibanez, Beyerdynamic

Описание: Comparing several different mics in our arsenal on two different bass drums. Each mic can be heard on either a ported, or non-ported head. We will also see how the mics sound with an internal boundary style condenser mic. Each mic received the same minor room correction EQ and very light compression from an 1176 style compressor. We will also take a listen to both the dynamic and condenser side of the Lewitt mic when combined.
