Become a part of the professional audio recording world with the British-designed Sontronics DM-1B, a large-diaphragm condenser microphone specifically engineered for kick drum and bass instruments. This high-performance microphone, along with our DM-1S for snare and DM-1T, is the culmination of three years of meticulous research, design, and development in collaboration with top-tier producers and drummers. The DM-1B has earned its place as a best-seller in the realm of drum recording, excelling in both live performances and studio settings. Its high sensitivity, low self-noise, and a -15dB attenuation pad, coupled with the capacity to handle up to 155dB SPL, ensures the DM-1B delivers exceptional results. Not only does it capture the full-bodied resonance and energy of your kick drum and bass guitar cabinets, but its superior power handling also records the nuanced attack of these instruments, offering an audio experience like no other. The DM-1B's unique sound capturing ability extends to other low-frequency biased instruments, from the sonorous tones of the trombone and tuba to the rich sounds of the tenor or baritone saxophone, double bass, and organ. Users have also praised the DM-1B for its impressive performance on deep male vocals, as well as rap and beatboxing. The microphone's design features a fixed cardioid capsule facing out of the top end (end-fire style), allowing it to be positioned either to the front head of the drum or even slightly inside the soundhole of the kick drum. Whether you're recording drum or bass instruments, the DM-1B is an indispensable tool for capturing high-quality audio in studio or live recording environments. It's particularly effective for kick drum & orchestral bass drum, bass guitar cabinets, low brass instruments like tuba and trombone, bass clarinet, tenor/baritone sax, and male vocals & rap/MCing.
