  Caratteristiche

  The Audio D6 is a microphone touted as having a huge and undistorted kick drum sound by Audix. Audix engineered the D6 to have a diaphragm with very low mass so that the pickup of the beater of the kick drum is rapid and clean. The D6 is a cardioid microphone specifically tuned for kick and bass. It boasts a rather normal 30 Hz - 15,000 kHz frequency response range. It is also very compact, which makes it much easier to position in front of a kick drum.

  Opzioni Generali

  I have generally found the Audix D6 to have a very explosive, thunderous quality to it. Despite Audix's claims, the D6 does not seem to have the tightness to it that one would expect, as the sound that this microphone produces compared to other kick drum microphones is huge. The problem with this is that the saturation of the sound tends to muddy up the general sound of whatever music is playing.
  
  
  
  Therefore, I am not the hugest fan of this huge microphone's sound in the live setting. However, everything else that Audix boasts about is certainly true. I immensely enjoy the ease of positioning the microphone on a kick drum, and which for the sake of convenience, this feature is immensely useful, I honestly would prefer to be able to adjust a little bit of the saturated sound that this microphone puts out.
  
  
  
  At any rate, the Audix D6 is a fantastic microphone for a recording situation if you are looking for that explosive boomy kick sound. Although it may not be for everyone, it certainly is a fantastic microphone for the situations that it lends itself to. It blows you away, and although that is not always a good thing, it is just as often a fantastic quality for a microphone to have.

  Did some live recordings with the DP5a kit. I will say that the low end on this mic is fantastic but i wouldn’t use this as a primary if you have a dynamic kick performance. The Low end is huge but not tight enough for a live situation. sounds best on the inside of a kick with a rock drummer; put it on the outside and you’ll need to pair it with something else on the in. bottom line, it needs mids unless you like kicks with no tone.

  Opzioni Generali

  Well, I have to say that I am pretty happy to own the D-6. Audix has slowly been winning me over, but I was still pretty apprehesive to just buy a mic without testing it first. A close friend had used them quite a bit, and recommended them over other similar mics. It's everything I had hoped sonically, but the most impresive thing to me is the clip! I love the locking wheel, instead of the typical friction style clips. Go Audix, and I hope other manufacturers take a cue from this.
  
  
  
  But overall, This mic will give you that earth-shaking, rumbling kick drum sound. It can take huge amounts of SPL and still not distort. I put it about 4 inches away from the beater head of the kick drum and even closer to give it more "click." Perfect for any style of music and amazing for metal drums. try it on a bass guitar too! The mic even feels like it can take a nuclear bomb and still work, its a solid block of aluminum! worth every penny, you will not be disappointed when you try it out! So give it a shot, you can get this mic for a decent price if you look around online, even check eBay. For some reason people get rid of these all the time, maybe they just don’t know what they are doing.

  The Audix D6 is a small dynamic microphone designed for use on a kick drum.  I've only used the mic inside of the recording studio, but it can definitely be used for live shows as well.  It is a compact microphone, which is a big plus as far as use with kick drum go as it makes it easy to place inside the kick.  The mic has a cardioid pick up pattern and will pick up frequencies in between 30 Hz and 15 KHz.

  Opzioni Generali

  My use of the Audix D6 is limited to use with a kick drum inside of the recording studio, but I believe that the mic would have some versatility if I tried it out on other drums.  Having said this, this review will focus on the use of the D6 in tandem with a kick drum, as this is what the original purpose of the mic is and is what it is probably best for.  They say that the mic is actually tuned and tailored for use with a kick drum, which I don't doubt as it is great for this application.  While I do prefer the sound of an AKG D112 or a Shure Beta 52A, the Audix D6 is another fine choice for recording kick drum as it give you a nice and full sound, which both the low end booming and a nice attack to go along with it.  I love how compact the D6 is, as it makes it a breeze to stick inside of a kick drum and place it wherever I see fit.  I find that with some of the other kick drum mics that I previously mentioned, it can be a bit harder to fit them inside the kick drum and once I get them in there, it is a bit hard to move around.  These problems are washed away with the D6, which makes me think that it would be great for live shows since it would only take a second to place, although I can't say I've yet had experience using this mic in a live setting.  The price of the Audix D6 is right in the same range as the D112 and the 52A, so the three mics are probably a good place to start and shoot out when looking for a kick mic.  While the D6 wouldn't be my first choice of the three, it is a very solid mic on its own and should definitely be the discussion.

  The D6 is a dynamic mic that is specifically designed for large drums. It has a very large dynamic capsule, so that it can respond better to the long wavelengths of bass frequencies. It is a cardioid polar pattern. There is no switchable pattern, and there is no pad for higher SPL's. There is also no low frequency filter, since the goal of this mic is to capture them. The mic connects with a standard XLR audio cable. The mic definitely has a tailored frequency response. There is definitely a bump in the low frequency area from 50Hz to maybe 200Hz. The mids seemed to be scooped out a bit until around 2-3k, and at that point there is definitely a spike. That is probably to help bring out the "click" in a kick drum to help it cut through in a mix instead of just sounding muffled and washed out. You could use this as your studio kick drum mic, and also as a live one.

  Opzioni Generali

  I have had this for years, and I still haven't decided if I like this or AKG's D112 more. They are the same price, so it's an easy comparison to make. The D6 usually ends up with a sound that is beefier and has more weight to it, but it is often harder to get it to cut through in a mix than a kick recorded with the D112. Another nice use I have found for this mic is miking a bass amp. If you combine that signal with a DI signal from the bass, you can just use the miked signal to serve as the bottom end, and then use the crisp DI signal for the top. The result is a well balanced bass sound that won't turn to mush in a mix. It's only 200 dollars, so the price is low for a very nice kick sound. Gets my seal of approval.
