Durable, Easy To Use, Great Sound Quality, Long Lasting
The Audio-Technica AE2500 is a condenser and a dynamic microphone. It is one of the higher end microphones from Audio-Technica and comes with a hefty price tag of 550 USD. It is said to be one of the best kick drum microphones out.
I used this mic for recording only, but I hear top bands have used this on tour with great results. There are 2 mic built into the capsule: a dynamic and a condenser.
that's a microphone that I bought on the advice of the forums, I wanted a microphone capable of reproducing the sound of the attack and roundness, and I really have not been disappointed this is for me the best beyond compare
Most audio engineers will reach for a Shure Beta 52A or an AKD D112, giving them a specific audio quality that each mic is known for. They are good mics, and that's why they're used around the world.

kick drum recording
The Audio Technica AE2500 is a very unique microphone that is to be used in the recording studio only. The mic is a dual element microphone, meaning that it has both a dynamic and a condenser capsule inside of it.
- What type of microphone? (Voice, sound, mixed ..) Bass drum mic but can do other things too, 16Khz bandwidth of 20 ... very hollow.
Micro double capsule, a static and a dynamic pluttdstin the sound of bass drum. Nice finish, substantial weight and reassuring concept simple and effective.
