Avantone Pro CDMK6 6-Mic Drum Microphone Kit

Complete 6-Microphone Drum Kit for Studio and Live Performance
The Avantone Pro CDMK6 6-Mic Drum Microphone Kit is a professional-grade microphone set designed for capturing the full spectrum of a drum kit. This set includes dedicated dynamic microphones for kick drum, snare drum, and toms, as well as two CK-1 small-diaphragm condenser microphones for cymbals and overheads. With high SPL handling and tailored frequency responses, each microphone in the kit is optimized for its respective drum or percussion element. Whether used in a recording studio or for live sound reinforcement, this kit ensures clear, punchy, and natural drum tones.

MONDO Kick Drum Microphone for Deep and Impactful Bass
The MONDO kick drum microphone is engineered to handle extreme low-end frequencies with an aggressive frequency contour that enhances attack and depth. Designed to withstand high SPLs up to 145 dB, this microphone captures the power of the kick drum with clarity and impact. The internal shockmount system minimizes unwanted vibrations and structure-borne noise, ensuring a clean and focused low-end response without excessive EQ adjustments.

ADM Snare Drum Microphone for Crisp and Defined Sound
The ADM dynamic snare drum microphone is built to deliver a well-balanced snare tone with extended lows and a detailed top-end. This microphone provides the familiar sound of classic snare microphones but with added warmth and definition. Its cardioid pickup pattern isolates the snare from surrounding instruments while reducing off-axis noise. Versatile beyond snare drums, the ADM also works exceptionally well on bongos, congas, and guitar cabinets.

ATOM Tom Microphones for Powerful Low-End and Attack
The CDMK6 includes two ATOM dynamic tom microphones, featuring oversized capsules designed to capture rich lows and articulate attack. These microphones are tailored for floor and rack toms, enhancing their natural resonance while maintaining clarity. The internal shockmount system minimizes unwanted rumble, making them ideal for high-energy drumming. In addition to toms, these mics perform well on large congas, djembes, and bass amplifiers.

CK-1 Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphones for Overheads
Two Avantone CK-1 small-diaphragm condenser microphones are included for overheads, cymbals, and room capture. Featuring a cardioid pickup pattern, these microphones focus on cymbal detail while rejecting unwanted ambient noise from the sides and back. A built-in -10 dB pad switch prevents overload when miking loud sources, while an 80 Hz high-pass filter switch reduces low-frequency rumble. The CK-1 microphones provide crisp, balanced overhead sound, making them essential for a complete drum recording setup.

Durable Drum Mic Mounts for Easy Positioning
The CDMK6 kit comes with three PK-1 PRO-KLAMP drum rim mounts, eliminating the need for bulky mic stands. These mounts securely attach the mics to snare and tom rims while reducing vibration transfer. Featuring three stages of rubber dampening, the PK-1 mounts ensure stable mic positioning and improved isolation, resulting in a cleaner drum mix.

Heavy-Duty Construction with a Vintage Tweed Carrying Case
The dynamic microphones in this kit are built with die-cast zinc bodies and metal grilles, while the CK-1 condensers are made of solid brass. With no plastic components, these microphones are built for long-term durability. The kit is housed in a custom vintage-style tweed case with reinforced metal corners, locking latches, and a plush interior lining. The high-density foam insert securely holds all mics, mounts, and accessories, with additional storage space available by removing the foam layer.
