I have another mic-related question.
I recently picked up a pair of Audix D-2 drum mic's, but this particular pair each has a smaller, more compact metal screen on it than all the other D-2's I have seen so far. It just plain looks different. Everything else looks the same as my other D-2's (as well as the other D-2's I have seen so far).
Ok guys...so I have a budget of around 300$ for a pair of deccent tom/allaround mics...what do you think is better?
Shure beta56 or Audix D2? they are both in the same price range...but I have no expirince with anyone of them!...
is anyone here exprinced with recording with anyone of them or both?
thanks a lot! :lol:

are these mics any good for drums. i know the d6 is a great bass drum mic but what about these for toms? I'm wondering if they would be as good as the micro-d from audix.
I'm really confused! I've heard two very different things about both mics for use on toms.
I've read that the E604 has a very natural sound on toms. Then I've read that they have a very nice scooped-mid rock sound.
I've been using Shure SM57's on toms, many different kits, many different players, and no matter what I can't get a good tom sound.
I know my room and pres play a big part, but I recently stopped using the 57 on snare and now use the Sennheiser E609 and get the sound I want. I'm thinking that it's more so the mic and less of the other factors.
