Bass Drum Microphone with Dynamic Pick Up Pattern, Tom Mic Swivel Adjustable Kick Drum Mic with Durable Steel Mesh Grille

So I use this mainly for a kick mic in my little studio. Feel like for the price it’s a great deal. I’m still on the newer side to audio engineering, but for my needs it’s been a solid addition

I have to say, that for the price that I paid for this Mic for my kick, it's doing one hell of a job! What I have done is hook it up to its own little mixer, a two channel Behringer and to its own 10" sub and POW! It adds so much sound to my whole drum kit! Yes, as I do with any electronics, I bought the extended warranty, but so far so good... I have yet to replace it... A must buy if you are on a budget!

As another reviewer said, the box says it’s a snare/tom mic but if you record with ot once you’ll hear that it’s very much a bass drum mic.This is exactly what I was looking for: a very cheap bass drum mic that cuts out all the highs and has a really good proximity effect if you can get it right up on there, especially on the batter side.Using it with a volt 476P with the mic pre and fast compressor engaged and it sounds great! Had it for a few days now and recorded a couple demo tracks and it’s good.Can get nice thumpy bass if you’re doing funky stuff off-axis or if you’re like a metal-type guy, you can get some real like that meat-slappy sound pointing it at the beater.I pair this with a vintage 421-u pointed at the snare, close to the hats and you can get a great mono funk drums with just these 2. Good buy.

The mic that arrives is identical in most ways to the Heimu HDM61 I bought a few months earlier; it comes in the same box and has Heimu HDM61 printed on it. But this one has a plastic 5/8” thread rather than a brass insert, and the glue on the inside wasn’t as good, so maybe these are cheaper production runs. Maybe worth the $9 to get the official Heimu but they are more or less the same.

NOT A KICK DRUM MIC - IT IS SNARE / TOM MIC (AND A BAD ONE)It even says Snare/Tom on the box.Kickdrum destroys the mic volumes on almost every setting and placement.Works okay for a starter snare/tom mic, but still 1 star for false advertisement.

Great mic. Definitely a very good budget mic

Nice mic, great pick ups if EQ right!

Works great for a live setting in a bar or club that you don’t want to bring your expensive mics to.
