APEX DP2 Deluxe Drum Pack Details
The best way to mic a drum kit is with a combination of specialized
dynamic and condenser microphones. The six microphones in the Apex-DP2
Drum Pack have been specifically selected to provide the most complete
and comprehensive miking system for a standard 5-piece drum set. The
Apex-DP2 is also the ideal starting point for building a microphone
package for an extended drum kit.
The popular Apex125 and Apex126 microphones handle the vital kick and
snare drums respectively. Ideally suited to handling the high SPL and
extended low frequencies that most bass drums can produce, the
Apex125's element is protected in a solid zinc die-cast outer casing
and can easily handle 165dB SPL at the input.
Made of a rugged zinc die-cast casing to protect the mic's elements
from the occasional stick hit that is inevitable over a drumhead, the
Apex126 is the perfect blend of performance and toughness. A cardioid
polar pattern offers maximum rejection 180 degrees off axis, handling
high SPL with a minimum of cross talk in the drum mix. The three
Apex165 microphones included in the Apex-DP2 pack handle the high SPL
you would expect when close miking a tom. Their miniature design comes
complete with shockmount assembly and gooseneck clamp, perfect for safe
attachment to any drum rim without damaging or breaking the chrome or
lacquer. It's unobtrusive, easy to attach to any instrument and almost
impossible to accidentally dislodge, even during enthusiastic live
performances.
The final microphone that makes up the Apex-DP2 is a single Apex190
stubby pencil condenser cardioid microphone. Ideal for use as an
overhead mic over the full drum kit, or for close miking on hi-hats or
splash cymbals.
The six individual microphones in the Apex-DP2 are shipped in a molded
carrying case with the specialized clips for use on and around the drum
set. APEX DP2 Deluxe Drum Pack Contains
