DPA Microphones 4055 Kick Drum Microphone with Holder

Capture the full, rich sound of your kick drum accurately with the 4055 Kick Drum Microphone from DPA. Unlike other bass drum mics that are tailored to emphasize certain frequencies for specific genres, the 4055 aims for a more linear response with only a subtle 6 dB boost in the 10 kHz range. This more sonically neutral approach captures the true sound of the drum, letting you add your own EQ, if necessary, to work within the context of your mix.

The package includes the UA0961 microphone holder, and the asymmetrical design makes it easy to place the mic inside or outside of the kick drum. Slide the mic into the bass drum for more attack or place it just outside the hole for maximum subs and bottom-end. The linear on- and off-axis response provide a round yet tight sound with extended low end and detailed mid and high frequencies. Robust housing protects the mic from even the most aggressive performers, while wind-damping foam behind the capsule protects the microphone element and keeps excess air noise in check.
