Audix D4 Dynamic Drum Microphone

Audix D4 Dynamic Instrument Microphone follows in the tradition of the first three D microphones, with a completely new design that should knock engineers and drummers for a loop when they hear and see it. Audix D4 is a Dynamic Microphone with a hypercardioid pattern and a frequency response of 38Hz-19kHz. Audix D4 Uses an entirely new capsule specially designed to capture high SPL instruments with extended frequencies below 100Hz. Audix D4’s sub-impulse technology captures lows better than other mics for truer sound imaging. Audix D4 has not only great low end response, but is a full range microphone with extreme clarity and detail. This makes Audix D4 the most versatile mic in the Audix D series.

Features

Hyper-Cardioid Polar Pattern
The hyper-cardioid polar pattern of Audix D4 is effective in eliminating noise and ambiance at the off-axis sections of the microphone.

Contoured Mid-Bass Frequency Response
The D2 features a frequency response of 44Hz to 18kHz. A mid-range bump accentuates the tonal response of floor toms, congas and more, the natural low frequency roll-off reduces noise.

High SPL Handling
The D2 can accurately handle signals with sound pressure levels registering at 144dB. Transient peaks are reproduced without distortion due to overload.
