Mounting on instrument
The enclosed clip fits most drums and percussion instruments and can be
mounted two ways, either upwards or downwards:
Clip mounted upwards.
Upward turning clip positioning allows for mic placements across the
drum skin and will be the most typical live application choice for rock.
Point the microphone to the middle of the drum to get more low-end
richness or to the edge to get more crispy bite.
Clip mounted downwards.
Downward turning clip positioning allows for mic placements a little fur-
ther away from the drum and will be a preferred choice for most invisible
placements suitable for TV productions. Sonically, this position will also
often be the choice for jazz.
