The Solomon LoFReQ Sub Frequency Microphone provides a depth, dimension, and fullness to your bass drum, that is simply not achievable with other mics. Coupled with your favorite inside mic, the Solomon LoFReQ will layer a larger than life sound to your kick.
The Solomon Mics LoFReQ is purpose built from the ground up, to get all the coveted chest-rumbling, sub-freq goodness, in a smaller package. Using a speaker as a low-frequency capture mic is nothing new. The Beatles used this technique as far back as the recordings of "Paperback Writer" and "Rain". Go search your interwebs and you'll find plenty of people dangling a speaker from a make-shift stand, re-wiring a monitor driver, or even hot-wiring a combo amp to try and garner those coveted sub-lows. Recently, manufacturers and DIYers have taken to wedging a leftover speaker into an repurposed orphan snare or tom drum. Sure, you'll probably get some signal, but it takes more to get the all right pieces in place for the best possible signal at the source, so you get the best possible sound in your ears.
Enter the SOLOMON MiCS "LoFReQ"... purpose built from the ground up, to get all the coveted chest-rumbling, sub-freq goodness, in a smaller package, at HALF THE WEIGHT of the conventional manufactured sub-mic, and HALF THE PRICE as well. SOLOMON MiCS mount to standard mic stands for limitless placement options, and stand choices... Whether dressed in black, all white or the black AND white trooper, your LoFReQ will either make an impression or just seamless fit whatever aesthetic you choose...
Get your SOLOMON LoFReQ today, and round out your sound like never before.

Great Choice for Capturing Low End
Jul 11th 2020I like to mic my kick drum with a mic close to the beater to capture the attack, but this approach sacrifices the low end that you want and need in a lot of situations. Move the mic out to capture the low end and you miss out on the attack. The best solution I have found is to mic both the batter and resonant sides of the kick drum. The LoFreq captures that low end perfectly, better than a lot of more expensive microphones I have tried. I'm definitely happy I invested in this mic.

Nice atlernative to Yahama Sub Kick
Jun 15th 2016A well-built, great sounding product. Does the job and it's much less expensive than the out-of-production Yamaha.
