I noticed all of the bigger stage/venues had this mic. You can get so much range from this half cardiod. Only issue I had, was that my mixer didn't have a way for me to take enough mids out and was causing it to clip. Better mic, required a better mixer.

This mic was everything that it was built to be! Great construction and awesome performance. I use it as an inner kick mic. Switching from the AKG D-112, I had to get used to the high end attack. After adjusting, I am finding a secure place for it in the mix!

Great mic, I've been looking for a good beater side kick mic for a while. I've tried several options but they were always at least a little intrusive or needed to be heavily gated. The sound of the beta 91a is immediately satisfying; the switch on the underside cuts right where I'd like.

One of the best kick mics I’ve used! In Studio or Live this mic gives you a great warm sound. Totally recommend.

This half cardioid condenser boundary mic will rock your kick. The beta 91a is specifically engineered for low frequency applications. With a built in mic pre-amp it really helps for low volume settings as well. This mic requires no external mounting and can just sit in a kick drum ready to roll.

Great on kick drum ,I have tried numerous mics on kick drum and this one has got it.

I use it in my kick drum when I need to be miked. The great thing is the punch I get from my kick drum. The convenience of not needing a small stand in front of my bass drum is another thing I like about it. It is a little pricey but worth the money.

Take a little 400hz out and close to the beater and this is one of the best kick drum mics on the market

I love the attack that this gives a kick. Mix it with a good sub kick mic, and you have gold!

This is an amazing microphone. With it flat response throughout its frequency range (20Hz - 20KHz) it captures the attack the kick drum very well. Its made to withstand any punishment you throw at it.
