Avis sur le produitAudix D2 Dynamic Cable Professional Microphone

Great sounding, multiple applications, well built.

I use them for toms and congas. Excellent clarity. Very durable housing and grill. I have also used it as a vocal mic for a drummer who was having a hard time due to the length of an SM58. His swing kept hotting the cable end even with a 90 degree connector on it. I pit a D2 on gia mic stand and it was just enough to give him the clearance he needs to naturally move and sing at the same time. Headsets were out of the question, so this really solved that problem and sounded great on backup vocals.Lire l'avis complet...

Excellent Percussion Mic

Audix D2 microphones are very useful on drums that need extra warmth, while thankfully avoiding the muddy frequency bloating that can happen with less expensive mics. They're also relatively inexpensive, making them a steal. It's the one mic that I can, for its value, recommend without any hesitation to almost any drummer out there. My one complaint: I don't like when mics use proprietary mic clips.Lire l'avis complet...

Audix D2 microphone with clip and d-vice

I bought the Audix D2 to see how it would record on gms 12" and 13" rack toms.

I was using Shure SM57s through a focusrite octopre set with slight compression (about 10 o'clock on the compression knob) and getting reasonable results.

Switching to the D2 offered slightly more punch and warmth than the 57. It is also very focused, a bit more than the 57. The D2 has less thinness than my particular 57s do, and it provides this without any extra mud. I am close micing enough (about 2-3 inches from the heads) to reject other sounds, but it seems to do well tracking the toms and ignoring the cymbals, kick, snare and other surrounding noisemakers.

I prefer the D2 over the 57 - the warm heft has got me sold.

I liked it enough on the 13" tom to buy another for the 12" tom. I like my second D2 over the 57 on that 12" tom for the same reasons.

One that I bought used had dings from drummers hitting them. I could not hear any problems with these slightly abused mics - they seem to be built very durable. I don't know if I'd use 'em as a hammer, but my 57 has more leverage for tapping in nails anyway.

I gave this a "good" rating because I don't feel qualified to give it an "excellent" rating. I have not tried the sennheiser 421s, my overheads are not schoeps, and i do not do this for a living. I am on a budget. For the cost of this mic + d-vice clip, I cannot imagine a better value. It gets me into what I would consider a very good sound at an affordable pricepoint.

The d-vice clip works very well on my tom hoops. They are typical stamped metal hoops, and the clips are nice and adjustable and put the mic where I want it. It is nice to be able to twist this into position and it stays there - and I don't feel like I'm about to break them while adjusting. They are durable.

I recommend 90 degree mic cable fittings on the cords to keep the profile down. With the mic + xlr plug sticking up, then the cord having ample room, it gets in the way of cymbals.

Make sure that you are getting what you think you are purchasing. There is the mic, the mic clip is separate, make sure you get that because a normal clip won't work. Then, the d-vice will be extra but if you need a way to suspend this over the tom, then get that too. Finally, the case - if you want it, make sure it is included. Don't forget to ask if it smells like smoke or pets if you care about that (pictures won't reveal that, now, will they?)Lire l'avis complet...

Great mic for rack toms!

The Audix D2 is a great mic for rack toms. Like Audix claims it's already pre-EQed and I just roll off some of the high end if cymbals or snare are bleeding through on my recordings. As the Audix videos say on YouTube you just point the mic head towards the center on the tom for the attack or angle towards the rim to gather more tone. I'm using the Audix D-vice with the D2 and D4 on my drum kit and it's super easy to use and adjust.Lire l'avis complet...

Great

This is a great mic. Small and accurate for percussion, horns, and general needs. Hyper cardiod pattern is good for rejection of off axis sound. The frequency responce is better than most similar microphones. The frequency response is very conservative. This mic works well for low brass. It is especially good on congas and bongos. Placement is versatile due to the small size and light weight. I highly recommend for studio or live applications. The Audix D series is a great family of drum mics.Lire l'avis complet...

Audix D2, the perfect drums percussion and cabs mic

This microphone gives the best result with toms, snare, guitar cab and percussion.

I have two of them witch I use on regular basis in the studio and on lives.

I recommand Audix mount Dvice and Dclamp to avoid cumbersome mic stand around the drum kit.

On summary, they are a great value for the money.Lire l'avis complet...

Great all around drum mike

The D2 is an all around performer. We use it on all three toms. Two floor and one mount. Tried the D4 for the floor but happy with the D2's. Also have used them for miking the guitar amps and they sound nice and chunky. Have tried the D3 and they work well too for guitar. The D6 is my kick drum mike of choice as well. One big happy Audix family. They are also very durable. Much more so than using Shure S57's for the aforementioned toms and guitars. Very happy with all of my Audix gear.Lire l'avis complet...

Amazing quality microphone at a great price

I bought the Audix D2 because I needed a great sounding mike that's easy to carry and mount. D2 delivers an incredible sound so far and due to its extra small size it's so convenient carrying it around or having it mounted on the drum,it's like it's not there! No problems with this great mike so far, I'm just another happy drummer!Lire l'avis complet...

Excellent!

The Audix D2 is a big sounding tom mic. I also like the sound of it on Electric guitars, Saxaphones, and other horns alike. The Audix D'vice clamp is very useful, quick and easy to use. We have 7 of them, and will buy more later.Lire l'avis complet...
