Heil Sound HDK-8 Drum Microphone Kit $1645 The Heil Sound HDK-8 Drum Microphone Kit gets you fully equipped to mic your drum kit right. It comes with 2 PR 22s, 3 PR 28s, 2 PR 30Bs, and a PR 48, giving you enough mics for a larger kit. It also comes with 2 special HH-1 mounts for toms, 2 HM mic clips, and a black hardshell carrying case. The Heil HDK drum mic kit series is a culmination of over 2 years spent on the road with leading drummers. They gave Heil their ideas, dreams, and needs which Heil then turned into reality. Every component of a drum kit needs special attention when it comes to reproducing the sound accurately. There are many drum microphones out there, but the artists that helped design the Heil drum microphones wanted more accuracy, not just level. Each one of them were tired of little plastic toys that did not reproduce well. They all agreed, after hearing and using the new technologies of the Heil drum microphones, that they had never heard this level of quality reproduction. Heil PR 22 MicrophoneThis special Spotlight Series edition of the Heil Sound PR 22 delivers the same outstanding versatility and range of the original. This microphone though, comes in several slick colors.The Heil PR 22 Mic represents completely redesigned dynamic microphone technology designed for a wide range of professional applications such as live sound, commercial broadcast, and sophisticated recording. The microphone's wide frequency range and outstanding, low handling noise outperforms the tired, 30+ year old industry technology and can withstand huge amounts of SPL. The end result is a microphone that can answer the call to any application. For example, the gorgeous upper mid range makes the Heil PR 22 among the best live vocal microphones, while its outstanding frequency response and superb dynamic range suit it perfectly for use with a snare drum.Since 1982, Heil Sound has been ranked with the leading manufacturers of communications microphones and has a paramount understanding of phasing. When properly applied, this knowledge creates outstanding cardioid patterns with unbelievable rear rejection that removes unwanted sounds that try to enter from the off-axis rear. Its pattern control is outstanding. This exceptional performance is achieved by using the ideal combination of materials for the large low mass diaphragm and a special mixture of neodymium, iron, and boron that gives the Heil PR 22 mic the strongest magnet structure available.In addition to the special magnet structure, the Heil PR 22 microphone achieves its exceptional performance by using a large 1-1/8" low mass voice coil assembly with a very unique internal sorbothane suspension system that has been designed to reduce undesirable handling noise. Special attention has been paid to the phasing plug assembly with equally placed ports that sense audio from behind, entering them out of phase. Thus, it produces a very linear cardioid patte |

Shure Beta 52A Kick Drum Microphone $189 The Shure Beta 52A Kick Drum Mic is a high-output, dynamic microphone with a frequency response tailored specifically for kick drums and other bass instruments. It provides superb attack and punch, and delivers studio-quality sound even at extremely high SPLs. Its modified supercardioid pattern ensures high gain-before-feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted sound.Channel Strips of the Stars: Ronan Chris MurphyWorld-class producer/engineer/mixer Ronan Chris Murphy's credits include King Crimson, Steve Morse, Terry Bozzio, Victor Bisetti, Gregg Bissonette, Tony Levin, and projects with members of Tool, Ministry, Weezer, Dishwalla, and Yes. A huge fan of A Designs Audio, Ronan was kind enough to share some of his drum-recording signal chains: "Well all of the drums for Terry Bozzio's Jazz trio were recorded with all A Designs Audio solid state preamps. For drum overheads I used Shure KSM32 condenser mics (#270141) into a Pacifica (#189903); for kick drums, I prefer the Shure Beta 52. Actually I have used the Shure KSM32 into Pacifica combo on tons of great drummers, including Terry Bozzio, Victor Bisetti (Los Lobos), Gregg Bissonette (Santana, David Lee Roth), and Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson, Mister Mister, The Rembrandts)."Note: for more information about individual units in the signal chain, enter the Item ID# into our search box.Frequency response shaped specifically for kick drums and bass instrumentsBuilt-in dynamic locking stand adapter with integral XLR connector simplifies setup, especially inside a kick drumStudio-quality performance, even at extremely high sound-pressure levelsSupercardioid pattern for high gain-before-feedback and superior rejection of unwanted noiseHardened steel mesh grille resists wear and abuseAdvanced pneumatic shockmount system minimizes transmission of mechanical noise and vibrationNeodymium magnet for high signal-to-noise ratio outputLow sensitivity to varying load impedanceLegendary Shure quality and reliability |

Drum Sets: Setting the Beat
Drum sets are indispensable additions to any band. Every music band typically needs at least three members; a drummer, a bass player, and a guitarist. Especially rock and pop bands need drummers to keep the beat going while the vocalist belts out the words. In popular culture, drums signify energy and liveliness, and are known to have a positive effect on the player’s personal attitude in the long run.
Drums are of two types, such as, acoustic drums, and electronic drums. Acoustic drums are, as the name suggests, full manual. These have to be manually tuned prior to playing and depend on the drummer’s skill to create good music. Electronic drums, on the other hand, have amplifiers, speakers, or even auto-tuning mechanisms attached to them. This makes tuning these drums significantly easier than the acoustic ones.
There are some pros and cons of both acoustic and electronic drums. Acoustic drums allow a seasoned drummer to literally play around (pun intended) with his kit. The drummer can add overtones, remove overtones, muffle sound, magnify sound; all with the correct turn of some screws. These do not depend on any additional instruments, except maybe a microphone put in front of them at times. But an electronic drum set will depend on amplifiers, speakers or even additional electronic beat changers to produce the right kind of music. This makes carrying them around quite cumbersome.
Acoustic drums are full manual instruments, and thus require a lot of time and patience to master. The characteristic “crack” that drummers love to create cannot be produced unless the sweet spot is struck, which is located in a different spot for each drum. Locating it may take hours of strenuous practice. In an electronic drum set, the beats are electronically produced, so the “crack” can be produced at will. However, most veteran drummers insist that the electronic “crack” does not come anywhere close to its manual variant in terms of quality.
Electronic drums can act as an easy way out for budding drummers who do not wish to stay glued to the kit for hours at a stretch. But, in order to fully master the art, one needs to practice with acoustic drums. Not only do these improve the player’s understanding of music, these also prepare their ears so that they can easily recognize one wrong tone among many correct ones. This helps them perfect their skills in the long run.
Drum sets are great instruments to have around. But, in order to master them, a budding drummer must endure hours of strenuous practice.
