DRUM SET II Live/Tour Sound Package description:

The AKG DRUM SET II Live/Tour Sound Package. Contains 1 x D 112 and 4 x C 518 M all in a Protective Aluminium Carrying Case.

The AKG DRUM SET II drum microphone kit is perfect for all drummers looking for a high quality, adaptable soloution. It includes the legendary D 112 Kick drum mic and four incredible C 518 M miniature condenser clamp-on microphones, all housed in a rugged AKG carrying case.

The D 112 has earned a well-deserved reputation worldwide as the best kick drum microphone ever made. Heavy-footed drummers won’t faze it, because the D 112 handles up to 160 dB SPL with no audible distortion. A specially engineered diaphragm with a very low resonance frequency maintains solid and powerful response below 100 Hz, while a narrow band presence rise at 4 kHz punches through dense mixes with little or no added EQ. The result is a kick drum sound that ideally balances precise definition and forceful impact. The D 112 is also an excellent choice for use with bass cabinets, trombones, etc. A built in windscreen and SA 60 stand adapter are included with the D112.

The AKG C 518 is the ultimate miniature condenser microphone for drums and percussions. Its cardioid polar pattern rejects overspill from nearby instruments. A continuously adjustable vise-type clamp makes it easy to fix the microphone securely on the top hoop of most drums or percussion instruments. An external shock mount provides high mechanical-noise rejection. A special snap-on stabilizer knee will keep the gooseneck bent at a defined angle. The C 518 M features an integrated, switchable bass cut for adjusting the microphone’s frequency response to your instrument’s sound.
