Included Hemisphere Mic Models
DN-12ABased on a popular dynamic microphone dating back to the 1950’s — this model is favored by producer/engineer John Leckie ( Radiohead, Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd ), who often uses a 12 model alongside a 421 on kick drums.
DN - 112 This Austrian - made kick drum microphone is now considered an industry standard. Used on countless Hip - Hop and Rock records, it has extended low frequency captu re with clear top end presence for beater attack.
DN-6The DN - 6 model is based on an American kick drum mic that has become a go - to for studio recording. With its deep bass and heavily contoured sound, it works especially well for tight, syncopated Metal genres.
DN - 52The DN - 52 model is based on a current production version of the American 52 - style kick drum microphone. This model provides extended low frequency capture, and an overall balanced sound useful on nearly any kick drum or bass instrument.
DN - SUBThe DN - SUB model is based on a studio trick which uses a full - range speaker driver wired in reverse for extended sub frequency capture. Many engineers will blend this sound along with a traditional mic for adding weight to kick drums and bass cabinets — now an easier task with just a single mic and the Hemisphere plug - in.
