AKG D112 MkII Professional Bass Drum Microphone

The AKG D112 has been revamped in the new D112 MKII version. This professional dynamic bass drum microphone features a brand new integrated flexible mount, while still retaining all of the sonic strengths that have made its predecesor the industry standrd, The D112 has earned a famed reputation as one of the best bass drum microphones ever made due to its high SPL capability, punchy EQ and bulletproof construction. The D112 MkII can handle more than 160 dB SPL without distortion. Its large diaphragm has a very low resonance frequency that delivers a solid and powerful response below 100 Hz. Its authoritative low end is complemented by a narrow-band presence boost at 4 kHz that punches through even dense mixes and loud stage volumes with forceful impact. One of the many reasons artists and sound engineers love the D112 MkII is that it requires no additional EQ to sound just right as soon as you bring up the fader. Further refining its performance, the D112 MkII features an integrated hum-compensation coil that keeps noise to an absolute minimum. In addition to being an exceptional bass drum mic on stage and in the studio, the D112 MkII is an excellent choice for miking electric bass cabinets and trombones.
