The Sontronics DM-1S is a high-quality clip-on condenser Snare mic designed specifically to accurately reproduce the nuances of snare drums. 2 years in the making, these mics are worthy of your consideration. Lifetime warranty included!
The Sontronics DM-1S has been meticulously designed by Sontronics' founder and designer, Trevor Coley, to capture the exact characteristics of your tom: the skin slap, snare rattle, the attack, boom, decay and so on. Rather than create one mic that gets good results from either/or snare and tom, this mic has a slightly different frequency response graph from the tom mic to get exceptional results from toms.
This end-fire pencil-style condenser has a -10dB pad switch that allow the mic to cope with up to 135dB SPL. The Sontronics DM-1S has been thoroughly tested to its limits by various session drummers, live musicians and producers, including Flood (U2, Killers, Arctic Monkeys) and Mark Rankin (Friendly Fires, Florence & The Machine).
