The Product
The Audio Technica MB/DK7 drum pack includes a core selection of five microphones specifically engineered for drum applications with the addition of a pair of MB4K cardioid condenser microphones ideal for drum overhead miking. The four MB5K snare/tom microphones and MB6K kick microphone feature a low profile design for minimum visibility and versatile placement options around the drum kit. Also included in the kit are four AT8665 drum-rim microphone mounts and a durable carrying case.
Tailored for snare, rack toms and other highly dynamic instruments, the MB5K snare/tom microphone offers a moving coil dynamic design with cardioid polar pattern, delivering superior off-axis rejection for maximum gain before feedback. With a frequency response of 100Hz to 12kHz, the mic is engineered to handle fast transients and high sound pressure levels. The cardioid dynamic MB6K kick microphone has a frequency response of 60Hz to 12kHz and can also handle high sound pressure levels, delivering superior results on bass drum as well as on floor and deep rack toms. With a condenser design and extended frequency response perfect for overheads and hi-hat, the MB4K features versatile battery/phantom operation, rugged all-metal construction, soft touch finish, a gold plated XLR connector, and an on/off switch. Its cardioid polar pattern minimizes feedback, high sound pressure levels are delivered without distortion and subtle nuances are clean and precise.
