Electro Voice ND68 Dynamic Supercardioid Bass Drum Microphone

The ND68 is a robust, high-performance , large-diaphragm dynamic supercardioid kick drum and low-frequency instrument microphone. Its supercardioid polar pattern provides excellent acoustic isolation from nearby instruments, and its voicing characteristics deliver a deep low end, relaxed midrange, as well as high-frequency content for aggressive top-end punctuation.
