The AKG D12VR Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone is a reference large-diaphragm dynamic mic with cardioid polar pattern. Designed specifically for kick-drum recording applications, the D12VR has a thin diaphragm to enhance the low frequency performance.

The AKG D12VR Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone's warm sound is realized by the original C414 transformer, especially impressive at high signal levels. The AKG D12 VR features three active filter presets to match its sound shape with the kick drum's character. When activated, the output level is automatically reduced by 10 dB. The filter settings can be controlled using a switch on the microphone body. Without phantom power, the AKG D12VR Microphone operates in passive mode and delivers the instruments pure sound.

    This has been my main kick mic since I got it. I’ve used the usual suspects RE20, D6, Beta 52, D112,EV 868s and such in the past . The D12 VR has a nicely balanced bottom mid and top. No overly hyped too and bottom or overly scooped mids or odd thud. If you put it in front of a good sounding kick you will have no problems getting a great sound.
