The Sennheiser e901 is a high-quality condenser microphone designed specifically for capturing bass drums (kick drums). It features a hemispherical cardioid pattern, integrated preamplifier, and a robust body suitable for high acoustic pressure environments.
The Sennheiser e901 is a professional condenser microphone designed for capturing bass drums (kick drums) with exceptional clarity and precision. Featuring a hemispherical cardioid directional pattern, the e901 ensures that it picks up sound efficiently from within the drum, providing high-quality recordings even at very high sound pressures. This makes it an ideal choice for drummers and audio engineers looking to capture every detail of the kick drum’s low-frequency tones.
The microphone is engineered to be placed inside the bass drum, eliminating the need for microphone stands and ensuring stable placement during performances or recordings. Its integrated preamplifier allows it to deliver clear sound without requiring additional external preamps, and the gold-plated XLR connector provides compatibility with standard microphone cables. The rubber pad on the bottom of the microphone helps prevent unwanted movement inside the drum, ensuring consistent performance.
The e901 is designed to handle very high acoustic pressures, making it well-suited for the demands of professional sound environments like live performances and studio recordings. Its fast sound response ensures accurate reproduction of the bass drum’s sound, while the durable body withstands the rigors of being placed inside the drum and potential trampling.
