With its deep bass and heavily contoured sound, it works especially well for tight, syncopated Metal genres.DN-12ABased on a popular dynamic microphone dating back to the 1950s - this model is favored by producer or engineer John Leckie (Radiohead, Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd), who often uses a 12 model alongside a 421 on kick drums.DN-52The DN-52 model is based on a current production version of the American 52-style kick drum microphone. This model provides extended low-frequency capture, and an overall balanced sound useful on nearly any kick drum or bass instrument.DN-112This Austrian-made kick drum microphone is now considered an industry standard. Used on countless Hip-Hop and Rock records, it has extended low-frequency capture with a clear top-end presence for beater attack.DN-SUBThe DN-SUB model is based on a studio trick that uses a full-range speaker driver wired-in-reverse for extended sub-frequency capture. Many engineers will blend this sound along with a traditional mic for adding weight to kick drums and bass cabinets - now an easier task with just a single mic and the Hemisphere plug-in.
