Comments about CAD KBM412 Bass and Kick Drum Microphone:
This is the 2nd one of these CAD KBM412 microphones I have purchased. They are great! Fast transistent response and "deep". They have more "attack" like a flat condensor but the "fatness" of a dynamic microphone. They are not as sensitive as some "kick drum" microphones and thus work well with consoles that do not have a "pad" on the input.
Comments about CAD KBM412 Bass and Kick Drum Microphone:
I was about to purchase a mic that cost three times this one for a young rock band that performs regularly. We had been using a vocal mic for the kick, and were happy enough, but knew somethng was missing. I saw this mic online and thought if ordered from GC I could return hassel-free if I didn't like. The mic is heavy and solid. The first time we tried it was at a gig with 200 guests in the house. This mic boomed! It lights up the Cerwin-Vega 18" sub! We were all pleased with it and it just sounded great. We've had the kick mic'ed by venues with expensive house kick drum mic's before, but the KBM 412 sounded just as good as most, better than some. We are satisfied. I'll be getting another one for the floor tom, and a spare... and I'll STILL be paying less than for one expensive kick drum mic! Buy one!
Comments about CAD KBM412 Bass and Kick Drum Microphone:
Didn't work for me. It has low end, but good luck trying to get any punch out of it. I had to EQ it a lot to get a decent sound. It is built nice though, seems like it could take a beating. For the price I guess it's alright but I would definitely recommend spending the extra money on a better mic. I've since replaced this with a Beta 52A.
Pros
- Durable
Cons
- Poor Sound Quality

Comments about CAD KBM412 Bass and Kick Drum Microphone:
I tried to mic a kick drum and a cajon box with this device on my PA system. The device had very low sound pickup such that I had to turn the channel so far up that all I got was feedback through the system. Within 5 minutes of use, I realized the product would not work the way I expected it to. Up until now, I had been mic'ing these instruments with a cheap $20 vocal mic. By comparison, it worked far better than this product.

Comments about CAD KBM412 Bass and Kick Drum Microphone:
I use this mic on my 22" kick. It sounds like a cannon! It's sound is clear and crisp. The mic i used before would get drowned out by the sound of the other instruments. Not this mic. All members of the band hear it loud and clear. It's also very easy to set up for any mic port. I HIGHLY recommend this mic..for the price and the sound!

Comments about CAD KBM412 Bass and Kick Drum Microphone:
I have a small, and a medium bass rig, and it sounds quite nice on both.
Can't speak to it as a drum Mic, but it serves my needs admirably.
