Behringer BC1200 Professional 7-Piece Drum Microphone Set

The Behringer BC1200 gives you an entire 7-piece drum mic set to capture your kit with studio-quality precision, both on stage and in the studio. The set includes a specialized large diaphragm mic optimized for deep, powerful kick drum lows. It easily mounts inside your kick drum with the mic aimed at the beater for more attack or toward the shell for a booming resonant tone. You also get four medium diaphragm mics that attach to the hoops of your mounted toms and snare with their fully adjustable clamps. Position each dynamic mic towards the center of the drumhead to pick up the sweet spot. To complete the set, two small diaphragm condenser mics accurately capture every shimmering cymbal detail. One mic can be positioned above the snare aimed at the ride cymbal, while the other focuses on the hi-hat for an immersive overhead image.

Large Diaphragm Mic Grabs Kick Drum Lows

The BC1200 includes a sturdy large diaphragm dynamic microphone specially designed to handle the demanding low frequencies and high SPL of kick drums. It mounts inside the kick drum shell on a short stand, aimed at the beater for more pronounced attack and transients. Angling it toward the edge provides a boomier, resonant kick drum sound. With its wide frequency response and tight polar pattern, this robust kick drum mic accurately captures the full low-end punch and click of your bass drum.

Medium Diaphragm Mics Attach to Toms and Snare

The set comes with four dynamic medium diaphragm mics ideally suited for close miking toms and snare drums. Each mic has a sturdy clamp that securely mounts onto the drum hoop, providing complete flexibility in angle and distance from the batter head. Position them close to the head, aimed at the center for a focused, crackling snare snap and clear, resonant tom tones. The tight cardioid pattern minimizes bleed from other drums and stage noise.

Overhead Condensers Capture Cymbals

Two small diaphragm condenser mics accurately pick up the intricate textures and shimmering overtones of cymbals. Mount them overhead on stands above the cymbals in an X/Y pattern, with capsules nearly touching, one aimed at the ride and the other at the hi-hat. The crisp, airy condenser sound captures every subtle cymbal swell and decay. They provide an immersive stereo image of the cymbals and auxiliary percussion when mixed with the close mics.

Withstands Live Playing With Rugged Build

The BC1200 is designed to hold up to the rigors of stage and studio use. The die-cast housings and heavy-duty grilles protect the mics from accidental impacts. Included windscreens, clamps and mic clips keep the mics locked in place on drums and stands. The mics provide wide dynamic range to handle everything from soft brush work to pounding rock shows. This complete 7-piece drum mic set comes in a protective case for convenient transport and storage.

For drummers and engineers needing an all-in-one microphone pack for full drum kit recording, the Behringer BC1200 has it covered. With specialized mics for each drum type, it captures professional studio-grade sound, even in challenging live scenarios. The BC1200 gives you world-class drum sounds on a working musician’s budget.
