901 High-quality pre-polarised condenser microphone with half-cardioid pick-up pattern, especially suitable for use with kick drums. The extremely thin, high-strength diaphragm delivers a very low bass response and fast transient signals. Incidental rear noise is effectively rejected.
Positioning the microphone Kick drums Position Resulting sound Commentary Much resonance, much attack Position the microphone at the bottom of the kick drum, approx. 10–20 cm from the batter head. Less attack: Turn the microphone away from where the beater strikes. The 901 is used for picking up the attack, the 902 for picking up the fundamental. Combined with an 902 positioned at the resonant head.
