Avantone Pro Introduces Sub-Frequency Kick Drum Microphone
Avantone Pro announced availability of Kick — a remake of the popular Yamaha SubKick Low-Frequency Capture Device designed to bring out the natural sound of bass drums and floor toms. The Kick is a sub-frequency (below 100Hz) kick drum microphone that can be used together with other drum microphones. Avantone Pro says it aims to bring back to life this well-known concept, offering an affordable, high-quality alternative, using its own ‘white cone’ low-frequency driver to capture lower frequencies than a standard dynamic microphone.
