How can you capture the authentic, vibrant sound of your snare drum in a recording The answer lies in the Sontronics DM-1S Cardioid Condenser Microphone. This high-quality, durable microphone is the result of three years of meticulous research, design, and development in collaboration with professional drummers and producers. It's specifically engineered to capture the unique characteristics of your snare drum, delivering a sound that's as true to life as possible.

The DM-1S, along with our DM-1B condenser mic for kick drum, provides a comprehensive solution for achieving exceptional results from your drum kit or individual drums, both in live performances and studio recordings. This professional-grade microphone features a small-diaphragm condenser, a -10dB attenuation pad, and an impressive ability to capture up to 135db SPL.

This versatile microphone comes with a mic clip for quick setup and positioning on a mic stand or an additional rim mount, offering you the flexibility to position your mic wherever you need it.

While the DM-1S is ideal for kit snare and orchestral snare drums, users have reported incredible results when used on Cajon, djembe, and doumbek as well.
