Professional Dynamic Bass Drum Microphone
AKG - D112 MKII
Industry benchmark for bass drum microphoneThe AKG D112 MkII professional dynamic bass drum microphone features a new integrated flexible mount, whilst keeping all the sonic strengths that have made it's predecessor the industry-standard. Over the years the D112 has earned a well-deserved reputation as one of the best bass drum microphones ever made, for its high SPL capability, punchy EQ and bulletproof construction.
The D112 MkII can handle more than 160 dB SPL distortion-free. 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. Refining its performance further is the integrated hum-compensation coil that keeps noise to an absolute minimum. Along with being an exceptional bass drum mic on stage and in the studio, the D112 MkII also works great for miking electric bass cabinets and trombones.
