- AKG's 7 piece Pro Drum Mic Set
- Contains 1x D112 bass drum mic, 2x C 1000 S overhead condensers and 4x C 518 M clip on snare/tom mics
- Includes a protective aluminium carrying case.
The AKG Drum Mic Set Big II contains everything you need to professionally mike up or record a drumkit.

The AKG Drum Mic Set Big II set includes 1x D 112, 2x C 1000 S and 4x C 518 M, all in a protective aluminium 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.

The versatility of the C 1000 S makes this an extremely popular model, and one ideally suited for all kinds of recording and live sound applications. If no phantom power is available, the mic can be powered by a standard 9 V battery, making it perfect for mobile use. The PB 1000 Presence Boost Adapter also supplied with the C 1000 S adds 3 to 5 dB of high-end enhancement between 5 and 9 kHz, improving clarity of speech and adding definition to instrument sounds.

The C 518 M 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.

Individual Microphones features

D112 bass drum mic
- Large-diaphragm dynamic microphone for bass instruments
- Extremely high SPL capability
- Classic microphone for stage and studio applications

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.

Built in windscreen, SA 60 stand adapter included.

The DAC came today as expected and were very impressed indeed. They said they thought it was the best installation of a projector and screen that they had ever seen in a medieval church.
