Application note, Snare Drum
A snare drum may benefit from a two-microphone setup, one
on top and one below the drum; the upper mic will focus on
the “in-your-face” punch and the lower mic on the snare high-
frequency bite from below the drum. Shift polarity on one of
them and blend them in desired balance.
Application note, Bass Drum
The VC4099 clip (optional accessory) also fits the bass drum
rim. The bass drum, too, can benefit from a two-microphone
setup, one on the stroke side and one on the front side. Shift
polarity on one of them and blend them in the desired balance,
controlling the “kick” sound and the low frequency component.
