Used B-Band Ukko-T Single Tom Drum Contact Mic $90.99 The B-Band UKKO-T single tom drum contact mic system is a remarkable way to capture the true tonality of your tom consistently, conveniently, and with extreme isolation. This system consists of two important components: the UKKO DMT preamp, built with high-quality class-A electronics, and the UKKO DST2 Contact mic for superb tone. This system will work with any size tom, and gives you high-resolution sound, and easy setup!This mic system was designed to be able to blend-in visually with the drum kit. That is why B-Band designed the DMT preamp to be chrome colored to match most drum hardware. It is an extremely lightweight system that does not add any noticeable weight to the drum, or get in the way while performing like most other drum mic systems. It also very robust and durable, and will endure rigorous touring.Setting up and tearing down have never been this easy. The DST2 has an adhesive back that mounts easily and discreetly on the inside of the drum shell near the batter head. The DST2 lead wire is fed through the drum air hole to the DMT preamp. The preamp comes with two different mounting options: mounting at the air hole outside of the drum, or a rim clamp mounting. The air hole mounting option was specially designed to not interrupt the flow of air as the drum breathes. Being as the DMT preamp is so small in size, there is no need to remove it to put the drum in its case, leave it on and be ready for the next gig or studio session. Inside the DMT preamp there are two mini switches that contour the sound for a choice of tone. One switch controls a -6dB mid cut at 1 kHz and the other is for a +6dB high boost at 5kHz.Extreme isolation of each drum with no bleed from other drumsMounts without modification to the drumReduces the need for audio gate effectsUltra-quick setupsTwo supplied mounting options for the DMT preampNo need to position mics or mic stands; just plug a standard XLR cable into the preamp and playClean looks without the clutter of mic stands |

Daking Mic-Pre Iv $2195 The Daking Mic-Pre IV offers four channels of high performance, Class A preamplifiers in a single rack space unit with outboard power supply. Configured for four microphone inputs or four line inputs from XLR/TRS Neutrik combo jacks on the back, plus four line inputs (+10 to -50) or 1/4" hi-z instrument inputs on the front, the Mic-Pre IV utilizes all discrete Class A circuitry with transformer-balanced inputs and outputs. The new Mic-Pre IV from Geoffrey Daking & Co. is the latest example of exemplary audio quality and craftsmanship in the tradition of the great console manufacturers such as Neve, Trident, and API.

Daking Mic-Pre One Preamp $765 The Daking Mic Pre One is a free-standing single-channel preamplifier that uses the same circuitry found in Daking's 4-channel Mic-Pre IV, a favorite among top producers and engineers such as Butch Vig (Nirvana, Green Day, Smashing Pumpkins), David Pensado (Mary J Blige, Beyonce, Brian McKnight), and both Chris and Tom Lord-Alge (who haven't they mixed?). Built in the tradition of the great console manufacturers such as Neve and API, Daking preamps feature bulletproof construction and marvelous sound, reminiscent of the coveted classic pres. While sharing the gain structure and Class A, fully discrete transistor circuitry design of the popular Daking Mic Pre IV, the Mic Pre One adds a unique variable high-pass filter and comes in a freestanding 'DI-style' steel enclosure, ensuring both durability and immunity from noise. Mic Pre One features switchable phase, 20dB mic input pad and +48V phantom power, plus a selectable 1/4" front panel Hi-Z instrument input, all utilizing relays with gold bi-furcated contacts. Two large knurled aluminum knobs control the variable high-pass filter (0-200Hz) and continuously variable input gain between 25dB and 70dB. A 20-segment LED bargraph display provides accurate metering. Another LED signifies when power is supplied to the Mic-Pre One. Rear-panel connections include a transformer-isolated input for a microphone, plus line outputs on 1/4" jack and XLR.

Daking Mic-Pre/4 Band Eq $1445 The Daking Mic-Pre/4 Band EQ is a single channel high end, all discrete Class A transformer balanced (input and output) unit that combines a great mic pre and world class EQ in one single rack unit. Separate mic and line inputs can be selected from the front panel Line switch without changing cables on the back panel. Both inputs are combo XLR/1/4" TRS. The Mic-Pre/EQ has a gain of 70dB, which allows it to easily handle all types of mics from ribbons to dynamics and condensers. Switched phantom power enables secure ribbon mic use, and a 20dB pad switch prevents overload on high-output condenser mics. It also has a front-panel phase switch for inverting input phase, while a large overall mute button and bypass button e workflow. Geoff Daking's famous "A Range"-inspired EQ has four individual EQ bands and five stepped frequencies per band with frequencies specially chosen for effective results. This is thought to be some of the best EQ available for tracking, mixing or mastering. It features continuously variable EQ boost or cut of 15dB; 25Hz High Pass 6 db/octave filter for getting rid of the low-end rumble that ruins tracks; and a 12dB per octave low-pass filter at 15kHz, which helps get rid of extreme top end edginess. Separate overall output level control makes up gain lost in extensive EQ cuts. Built to last and provide top-notch performance, all relay switching features gold bifurcated contacts for long life and steel construction for strength and noise immunity. An outboard in-line universal power supply provides remote power in order to keep the noise floor low. In use: Truly astounding in its ability to reveal vocal detail and character when used with a large-diaphragm condenser, the Mic-Pre/EQ also provides exceptional clarity while maintaining warmth. It imparts a beautiful high-end sheen with none of the harshness associated with certain modern designs. It has all the character of the classic preamps on which it is based, but without the unreliable behavior, plus more richness, detail, and sparkle. Notable users of Daking preamps and compressors: Includes Grammy winners Joe Chicarelli (Tori Amos, Counting Crows, U2) and Ted Perlman (Chicago, Bob Dylan, Elton John), Butch Vig (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Garbage) Steve Albini (Nirvana, PJ Harvey, Cheap Trick), Russ Long (Wilco, Dolly Parton, Sixpence None the Richer), and master mixers Chris and Tom Lord-Alge (everybody else from James Brown to the Rolling Stones).Transformer balanced Iiputs and output All discrete transistor circuitry Class "A" amplifiers Four Band EQ with hard bypass Continuously variable boost and cut: +-16dB Stepped frequencies: High shelving 8-10-12-15k-20k Upper Mids 1.5-3-5-7-9K Lower Mids 125hZ-250hZ-500hZ-1K-2K Low shelving 30-50-80-100-150hZ High & Low Pass Filters 25hZ & 15KhZ All relay switching w/gold bi-furcated contacts Switched +48v Phantom power Remoteable mute and bypass 20dB pad on mic input Stainless steel construction fo |

Heil Sound Handi Mic Pro Plus Dynamic Microphone Black $108 The Heil Handi Mic Pro Plus is a dynamic microphone that incorporates innovative mic technology designed for a wide range of professional applications. This versatile Heil microphone excels at live sound, commercial broadcast, and sophisticated recording venues. The Handi Mic's wide frequency range outperforms 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. The Handi Mic Pro Plus is ideal for use with tom drums where smaller microphones are needed, as well as inside Leslie speakers. The Handi Mic is perfect as an interview microphone because of its small size, low profile and great sound. Since 1982, Heil Sound has been the leading manufacturer 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. The pattern control of the Heil Handi Mic Pro Plus 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 Handi Mic Pro Plus the strongest magnet structure available. Heil technicians paid special attention to the microphone's phasing plug assembly. The Handi Mic's equally placed ports accept sound from behind out of phase. Thus, the Handi Mic Pro Plus produces a very linear cardioid pattern and reduces proximity effect while achieving perfect articulation. The Heil element in this microphone is usable at extreme high sound pressure levels and is immune to overload conditions. That makes the Heil Handi Mic Pro Plus a dynamic microphone that is perfect for vocal and live sound applications. |

This system will work with any size tom, and gives you high-resolution sound, and easy setup!This mic system was designed to be able to blend-in visually with the drum kit. That is why B-Band designed the DMT preamp to be chrome colored to match most drum hardware. It is an extremely lightweight system that does not add any noticeable weight to the drum, or get in the way while performing like most other drum mic systems. It also very robust and durable, and will endure rigorous touring.Setting up and tearing down have never been this easy. The DST2 has an adhesive back that mounts easily and discreetly on the inside of the drum shell near the batter head. The DST2 lead wire is fed through the drum air hole to the DMT preamp. The preamp comes with two different mounting options: mounting at the air hole outside of the drum, or a rim clamp mounting. The air hole mounting option was specially designed to not interrupt the flow of air as the drum breathes. Being as the DMT preamp is so small in size, there is no need to remove it to put the drum in its case, leave it on and be ready for the next gig or studio session. Inside the DMT preamp there are two mini switches that contour the sound for a choice of tone. One switch controls a -6dB mid cut at 1 kHz and the other is for a +6dB high boost at 5kHz.Extreme isolation of each drum with no bleed from other drumsMounts without modification to the drumReduces the need for audio gate effectsUltra-quick setupsTwo supplied mounting options for the DMT preampNo need to position mics or mic stands; just plug a standard XLR cable into the preamp and playClean looks without the clutter of mic stands |

Studio Singing, Jingles And The Big Bucks!
As a music industry professional, I've had the pleasure of watching numerous young artists and studio singers develop into what seems as unstoppable marketing machines. I've also witnessed the untimely passing of many a would be talent whose career ends as mysteriously as it started. What makes for a great session singer? Who makes the big bucks singing jingles and commercials? Why do some make it with what would seem little talent and others, with impeccable style and delivery, never even given the slightest acquiesce from industry insiders? Let's take a look at some basic ideas and concepts, and hopefully you can take away some understanding to gain traction in your singing career.
First off, as a former talent booking agent with the William Morris Agency, I can not tell you every how or why to every act that has or hasn't made it whether in the studio or as an artist. Let's get that right up front. Anyone who professes that they have all of the answers if you will pay them so much money for some "industry secrets" is a fake. There are some concepts that can be learned and utilized, but nothing is foolproof, luck has its way of entering the picture and quite honestly the "I don't know how it happened," is reality. But, there are ideas that can give you an edge over your competition - Let's look at some.
Jingle singers and great session singers are a breed apart. There's no mistaking it. I've sung on numerous commercials with some incredible singers, often leaving the session going, "What the heck was I doing there,?" but called back time after time - You know why? It's called attitude. Sure singing on the money every time with consistency is incredibly key, but so is the attitude. So our most basic, yet almost critical element to singing in the studio with the elite crowd is attitude.
As you look at your career, one of your first questions to answer will be, "What do I bring to the table?" Another way to put it is, "Why should they hire me?" What niche of the singing market does your voice encapsulate? In other words, you need to figure out why someone will pay you. Now there's a multitude of genres and singing opportunities out there, so don't think too narrowly and don't get discouraged if you don't think that your vocal abilities command significant attention in multiple arenas. The fact remains that many new comers to the market do make it and are successful within their niche. You just need to be able to capitalize on your strengths - the "This is why they are paying me," factor.
Once you've established your strengths and real abilities, not the abilities you wish you had or that close friends nicely tell you that you have, you will be ready to start figuring out what your demo reel should consist of and sound like – This is key. You need to know your strengths and abilities to minimize your weaknesses and bolster your strengths. A first class jingle or session singing reel is your ticket to success. If you're not getting much session work, you'd better start looking at your reel. If I've stated it a thousand times, you can not compete in the privileged singing arena going for the big bucks with the "My friend has a studio with a keyboard, mic and computer." It's not going to happen. You have to be willing to spend not only time, but money on your demo. Once you're in, you can get copies of the session work you're called on to be included in your next reel, but starting out, your jingle demo has to scream quality, like you've already arrived on the scene. For further insight and demo ideas you might consider looking up ReelMusician.com and free e-books on jingle singing and song demos are available as well. If you get nothing else out of this article, make sure your jingle reel is a knock out!
The big bucks in the session world are made in singing national 13 week spots. Many singers who have successfully entered the jingle singing market travel to Chicago, LA, New York, Atlanta, Dallas and other secondary jingle markets to sing on these types of jingles. A 13 week McDonalds spot could earn you $15,000 to $20,000 or more on one commercial! Sounds too good to be true, but it's the truth. Now before you think you can enter this market you'd better have a "make your socks roll up and down" jingle reel in hand. Oftentimes these 13 weeks spots are repeated and you know what that means, you get an additional fee.
Once you have your jingle demo in hand you have to figure out who and what to do with it, how often do you submit it and to where. These are great questions and I'll attempt to answer these critical questions in our short time remaining. I realize that most reading this article have interests that are only piqued, but there are a number of you who could probably do very well in the jingle singing arena and will. With that I will embrace a few key ideas here and hopefully you can email me with some of your success stories.
You will want to start by locating, calling and sending out your jingle reel to individuals and companies in your local area. There are listings of production and jingles houses along with ad agencies if you will Google it. You will want to send them your jingle reel with your name, contact number and year and season of the year, directly on the front sleeve along with your cover letter. You will also make sure that all jingles and musical snippets are listed in order on the inside cover along with all of your contact info again. You will then, after submitting your reel locally will, be ready to start branching out to larger jingle production communities. You will keep a detailed log of who, when, etc you talked to and sent out your email and all responses. You may want to follow up with some individuals with another professionally produced jingle reel to get your name across their desk another time. Keep emailing and conversing with interested parties. Call and gather contact info from other successful session singers. In time if your reel sizzles, you should be acquiring work. Good luck and we look forward to hearing from you!
