Filter Settings
a
The three active filters are bypassed and do not affect the audio signal.
b
When connected to a standard phantom power supply (P48V) the output level is
automatically reduced by 10 dB and one of three
active filter presets can be selected using the three-way switch.
1)
Switch in left position (green
LED)
The midrange filter and a low-
end boost enhance the power of
the kick drum.
Recommended for use with
open kick drums.
2)
Switch in centre position (red
LED)
A mid-range attenuation filter is
active, providing more space for
other instruments in the mix.
Recommended for achieving a
vintage sound.
3)
Switch in right position (blue
LED)
The mid-range and low-end
filters are applied as well as a
high-end boost to enhance the
presence of the kick.
Recommended for use with
closed kick drums.
The switch position is clearly represented by the colour coded LEDs and hence
the filter selection can be determined with ease.

Use
Most engineers agree that it is beneficial to remove the front head when miking up the
bass drum. A full drum sound is obtained by placing the microphone just outside the
drum.
The further inside, the drier and less boomy the sound and the better the acoustic separa-
tion of the bass drum from the rest of the kit.
Pointing the microphone right toward the beater produces a harder sound culminating in
a "click" when the microphone is as close as 1 or 1.5 inches to where the beater strikes
the head. Directing the microphone away from this point, toward the rim of the head, will
mellow the sound.
