Complete 4-Mic Drum Kit Package for Live and Studio
The Audix DPQUAD is a professional four-microphone drum kit package designed to capture kick, snare, and overhead cymbals with clarity and punch. Built for both live sound reinforcement and studio recording, this drum mic kit provides a balanced, ready-to-deploy solution for drummers, engineers, and production teams who need reliable performance and consistent results.
Kick Drum Microphone with Deep Low-End Response
Included in the DPQUAD is a dedicated kick drum microphone engineered to handle high sound pressure levels while delivering tight, focused low-frequency response. Its tailored frequency curve enhances attack and depth, making it ideal for kick drum, bass cabinets, and other low-frequency instruments in rock, pop, worship, and studio environments.
Snare and Instrument Mic with Controlled Rejection
The package also features a dynamic instrument microphone optimized for snare drum and general percussion duties. With a cardioid pickup pattern, it helps isolate the drum from stage bleed and nearby instruments. This controlled off-axis rejection improves gain before feedback, making it suitable for live stage applications, rehearsal spaces, and broadcast setups.
Matched Overhead Condenser Microphones for Cymbals and Ambience
Two overhead condenser microphones round out the system, providing accurate high-frequency detail for cymbals, hi-hat, and overall kit ambience. With wide frequency response and clean transient capture, these overhead mics are well suited for drum overhead recording, choir, acoustic instruments, and room miking in studio or live settings.
Optimized for High SPL and Professional Applications
Each microphone in the DPQUAD drum microphone kit is designed to withstand high sound pressure levels common in drum performance. From aggressive kick patterns to sharp snare hits and bright cymbal crashes, this kit handles demanding performance environments while maintaining clarity and balance.
Efficient Setup for Touring and Studio Workflows
Whether you are building a compact touring rig or outfitting a project studio, this four-mic drum pack simplifies your setup. With purpose-built microphones for kick, snare, and overheads, engineers can achieve a clean, focused drum mix without assembling individual components. It is a practical choice for churches, schools, clubs, and professional recording sessions.
