Mounting the Q72 to a Drum
Installing the Q72 to your drums with the
integral DMC200 mic clip is easy. Follow the
simple steps below to install the DMC200
mic clips to your drum kit.
Place the bottom claw the under the bottom
edge of the upper drum rim, then push the
DMC200 forward until the top claw moves
over the rim and you feel it click into place.
Adjust the height of the Q72 and tighten the
upper thumbscrew in place.
Once the DMC200 clip is fixed in place and
the height is set, you can adjust the angle of
the microphone.
Note: While adjusting the angle, you will
want to place the mic in a position that is
least likely to interfere with your playing
style. Because of the Q72’s supercardioid
pick-up pattern, the microphone is subject
to the phenomenon called proximity effect,
slight adjustments of the microphone
position and angle can make a big difference
in sound. For further information on
positioning your microphone see the section
“Microphone Placement”.
Connect the Q72 to a mixer or audio
interface using a standard XLR mic cable
and dress the wire away from your drum.
