604

The cardioid 604 is a dynamic microphone suitable for miking drums, percussions as well as brass and woodwind instruments.

The frequency response and cardioid pick-up pattern are optimised for use with snares and toms. The mic has a very high sound pressure handling capability (in excess of 160 dB). The sound inlet basket is made from stainless steel.

The integral stand mount screws directly onto mic stands or to the supplied microphone clamp. The clamp allows the microphone to be directly attached to the rim of the instrument.

Positioning the microphone

Drums

Use of a second 604 for picking up the bottom of the drumskin and the snares. NB: The lower microphone must be phase-reversed to avoid phase-cancellation effects due to the second microphone being on the other side of the drumskin.

In order to prevent interference due to crosstalk between adjacent sound sources, try to position the microphone so that the interfering sound source is located in the angle area of the highest cancellation of the microphone (approx. 135??; see polar diagram).
