Sontronics DM-1T Condenser Drumkit Microphone Overview:
Representing three years of research, design and development alongside professional drummers and producers, the Sontronics DM-1T is specifically created to capture all the characteristics of your snare and tom tom respectively.
Together with our DM-1B condenser mic for kick drum, the DM-1T gives you everything you need to get exceptional results from your drumkit or individual drums, both live and in the studio.
The DM-1T is a small-diaphragm condenser mic, with a -10dB attenuation pad and capable of capturing up to an impressive 135db SPL.
It is designed to capture all the classic characteristics of your drum - the snap, crack and rattle of your snare and the slap, boom and resonance of your tom tom.
It is supplied with a mic clip and also a basic mounting arm to allow you to quickly get set up and attach the mic to the rim of your snare or tom drum. However, most engineers or producers will use individual mic stands to get the mics as close as possible to your drum head.
The DM-1T is designed for rack and floor toms, it also gives a brilliant sound on your bongos, djembe, tabla and congas.
