JESSE GARCIA, DARIO NUÑEZ - TIMPANI DRUM

We teamed up with drummer Alex Höffken (Alice Merton, Namika, Balbina) in his cozy Berlin studio to record several punchy drum examples with the Sphere L22. So let's explore the Sphere L22 on drums and find out what mic models are best suited for the job. Using an LDC on the snare is not that common, but the Sphere L22 is perfectly equipped to be used up close thanks to its built-in pad. We advise starting with the -10 dB or -20 dB pad engaged, depending on how hard the drummer plays.

Each microphone model affects how the snare drum sounds and puts different aspects in the foreground. Even the various versions of the 421 have their own unique character. The dynamic models such as the DN-57 and the DN-421s have that typical punch and bite of moving-coil microphones. The RB-77DX, based on a historic RCA ribbon mic, is quite dark but would be an excellent choice for a rootsy R&B record. Using an LDC, such as the Soyuz 017 tube condenser, once again gives you a more open and airy sound.
