These high precision instrument microphones are designed to fill the specific needs of artists and engineers for both studio and live applications. Each of the DP Series packs contain a minimum of two D2s, one D4, one i5 and four DVICE clips. The i5 and D series microphones each have a specifically tuned VLMTM (very low mass) capsule housed in a precision-machined lightweight aluminum body. The D2 is designed to be used for toms and the D4 is designed for floor toms or small kick drums. The D6 is the quintessential kick drum microphone and the i5 snare drum microphone is designed for sonic accuracy, consistency and durability. The ADX51 and SCX condensers are ideal for high hat, overheads, and goodie table. The DVICE gooseneck rim mount allows for quick and easy set up and perfect mic placement. Don’t compromise the sound of your drums. The DP series mic packages will reproduce the sound of your drums exactly how you want your audience to hear them.

DP4A [1 x i5, 2 x D2s, 1 x D4]: This package is ideal for a jazz set-up or a small combo kit or as general purpose percussion mics for stage or recording. Note that you will need to acquire the DCLAMP or DFLEX in order to attach the mics to hand percussion instruments. The D4, originally slated for kick drum and large toms before the release of the D6, is excellent for small kick drums, particularly in the studio. Snare and Toms: As a general rule, the i-5 and D2 are meant to be close miked. A good starting point is 2 inches above the rim with the mic pointing towards the center of the head. For more “rim” sound, pull the mic back closer to the rim. For more resonance and depth of field, pull the mic further away from the head. The trick is to find the right balance between resonance and attack while still controlling bleed from the other drums. DP5A [1 x i5, 2 x D2s, 1 x D4, 1 x D6]: This package is identical to the DP4A with the addition of the D6 kick drum mic, allowing the D4 to be used on floor tom. To position the D6, a good starting point is a few inches inside the port of the front head with ...
