About CAD Audio D88

Just when you thought your kick drum sound couldn't get any more powerful, the D88 Supercardioid Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone from CAD arrives to elevate your live sound experience. Tailored for extreme musical genres that demand high volume and deep bass, the D88 stands out in the CADLive microphone lineup with its robust and muscular performance.

Crafted with the legacy of CAD's Equitek technology, the D88 is engineered to deliver outstanding sound quality and dynamic response, ensuring that every beat is captured with clarity and punch. The microphone's supercardioid pickup pattern focuses on the sound source while minimizing unwanted ambient noise, making it an excellent choice for busy live sound environments.

At the heart of the D88 lies one of the largest capsules found in a percussion microphone, designed to handle the energy of today's most powerful kick drums. The innovative TrueFlex diaphragm, paired with a PowerGap Neodymium magnet, generates a hot signal that's optimized for contemporary kick drum sounds. This combination results in a microphone that not only captures the low-end punch but also provides the articulation needed for a professional-grade audio performance.

Whether you're on stage or in the studio, the D88 Supercardioid Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone is built to withstand the rigors of touring and provide consistent, reliable results. With its exceptional design and high-quality components, the D88 is set to become the go-to microphone for drummers and sound engineers who refuse to compromise on their kick drum sound.
