Drum Mic Comparison

[James Perrett]

As I'm working my way through SimonZ's mic collection I thought I'd put up another mic comparison (similar to https://www.soundonsound.com/forum/view ... hp?t=93729) - just to see if some of the less well known models live up to all the manufacturer's claims when compared to some better known models.

This time I'm afraid you'll have to suffer my dodgy drum kit which hasn't been tuned in ages. So far I've only tried comparing bass drum mics and snare mics. I positioned the mics as close to my favourite positions when using my favourite mics as I could so it is possible that some mics may benefit from repositioning. I may also add some other percussion later...

It will be interesting to hear people's opinions of the sounds...
