Skipper’s Tip: Why Blue’s new Drum Kit Kit is the only way to get big drum sounds

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Earlier this month, Blue announced the Blue Pro Drum Kit…Kit, your one-stop solution for getting the legendary 3-mic technique recording. But why is this the best way to get the best sound? Blue’s Microphones’ founder Skipper Wise explains -

“The unique sonic signature of the Dragonfly was created by boosting the upper bass frequencies at 100-150hz to help thicken up thin signal sources. This character coupled with a slightly depressed mid range at 400hz and an extended top end at 12-15kHz, helps cymbals to be recorded with a live and present rich timbre. The rotating grill which house the Blue hand tuned large diaphragm condenser capsule can be positioned for the optimum placement with ease.

Filling in the deeper bass frequencies, the Mouse microphone takes on the chore of handling loud signal sources (SPL) such as the kick drum. Known for its durability in the recording environment, the Mouse is as versatile as it looks with its shockmounted rotating head.

These three microphones complete the sonic spectrum needed in producing a full-bodied, live recording session for the most discerning drummer and engineer.”
