- -- Part 2: The Boundary Mics - inside the bassdrum --
In this video you hear the boundary mics in the bassdrum without any other kick mics.
This is the first part of a series of videos from my latest Bassdrum Mic Shootout. It covered five dynamic microphones and three boundary mics.
Shure Beta 52a
Beyerdynamic TG-D70
EV RE320 (Kick-EQ enabled)
Beyerdynamic M88TG
Beyerdynamic M201 TG
Behringer BA19a
Shure Beta 91a
Beyerdynamic TG-D71
The whole series will cover the mics in different positions and solo/combined with the boundary mics inside the bassdrum. All audio of the bassdrum microphones is totally unprocessed - no EQ, no FX, no Compression. Only slight normalization was used in order to match levels between the group.
The drumset was recorded with a pair of Oktava MK012 cardioid Overheads, a SM57 on the snare and a AKG C414B-ULS in omni mode as a room mic. The four bassdrum mics (3x boundary, 1x dynamic at a time) were preamplified with the Focusrite Clarett 4Pre USB preamps - the other mics were brought into the Clarett via ADAT lightpipe from a separate preamp. All recordings were made with Fs 48 kHz and 24 bit. Processing was done in Samplitude Pro X3.
Stay tuned for the other parts of this series to come!
I've just bought the Behringer BA19a which I'll be trying out at tonights gig..Was a bit unsure as it was so cheap but every review I've seen seems to make it comparable in quality with much more expensive Shure, AKG and Sennheisers etc. From your test it sounds great too!
I'm using it more and more as a "set and forget" mic in the kickdrum. The signal with the EQ set to mid scoop rarely needs any processing at all.
heheheheh that cheap BA19a is kicking butt in all RUclips videos I've seen.
that's my opinion too
Cool
Nice shootout...i am pretty disappointed from the Shure, which i had for myself once and i am pretty impressed by the Beyerdynamic D71...the Behringer is also nice! Thanks for sharing!
When I listened to that on my cheap studio headphones, I liked the BA19. Now, when I listen to this on my decent studio monitors, I'd say the TG-D71 wins, but they all sound good.
The BA19 for its money sounds very good for my ear. I often use it live as set and forget mic. For recording I often put it in front of the reso head.
This makes me realize, Behringer aint cheap.. Other companies have just been ripping us off all these years...
I use the Beyers as well. Wonder why the EQ is still bit boxy, but the whump and bite is pretty well on all of them. With huge price difference though... I use the Beyers because of price/performance ratio, but the Behringer is HUGE finding for me. Does anybody know the difference between Behringer BA19 and t.bone BD500?... same chassis, switch... same factory and components?
