What does a bouncing basketball and a kick drum mic’d with a D112 have in common? Basically, the same mid range sound exactly. But you just EQ that out..

What this mic..
click.click.click.
is about…
click.click.click.
is high-end defintion…
click.click.click
in the form of kick drums.
IT CAPTURES THE FUCKING CLICKS!
If you like Fat Wreck Chords and think their drum sound is the shit, and that ‘and justice for all’ was the FUCKING PINACLE, the Defining moment of high fucking fidelety kick drum recording, then this is your mic.
click.click.click.
I don’t even notice it..
click.click.click..
but every drum has to have the damn click. or it sucks. I don’t care the style. If I record it, it’s gonna have it.
And then I’m gonna shape the bass to match. And if it’s a round sound, I’m fucking leaving.
