KM3 OVERHEADS
The KM3 is an end address small diaphragm condenser intended for use as a drum overhead microphone however it is equally suited to many other applications such as stringed instruments and piano.
Two KM3’s are supplied for stereo overhead coverage and come complete with a rubberized shockmount to ensure handling noise is minimized.
KM4 KICK MIC
The KM4, like the other dynamic models in the range, uses a neodymium magnet to provide exceptional low distortion at high output levels.
Primarily designed for kick and tom applications it is also at home when used on bass, brass and amplifier cabinets.
KM5 TOMS & SNARE
The four KM5 microphones have a spring loaded adjustable drum-rim mounting bracket that ensures perfect positioning for snare and tom applications.
The intelligent rim mounting ensures that the microphone will operate effectively and safely out of the range of sticks and beaters; in addition there is a cable tidy to ensure wiring is neat, tidy and safe.
PICKUP THE SIGNAL, NOT THE NOISE
The KM Series Microphones include feature super-cardioid & cardioid patterns to minimize feedback and to reject signals not originating in front of the microphone.
