604
The cardioid 604 is a dynamic microphone suitable for
miking drums, percussions as well as brass and woodwind
instruments.
The frequency response and cardioid pick-up pattern are
optimised for use with snares and toms. The mic has a
very high sound pressure handling capability (in excess of
160 dB). The sound inlet basket is made from stainless
steel.
The integral stand mount screws directly onto mic stands
or to the supplied microphone clamp. The clamp allows
the microphone to be directly attached to the rim of the
instrument.
Features
y Rugged reinforced glass-fibre body
y Low sensitivity to impact and handling noise
y Very high sound pressure handling capability
(in excess of 160 dB)
y Humbucking coil
y Easy to position due to compact design
y Integral stand mount

Positioning the microphone
Drums
In order to prevent interference due to crosstalk between
adjacent sound sources, try to position the microphone so
that the interfering sound source is located in the angle
area of the highest cancellation of the microphone
(approx. 135°; see polar diagram).
Position Resulting sound Commentary
More fundamental,
little overtones
Position on the drum:
3–5 cm above the
drumskin, the
fundamental to
overtones ratio can be
adjusted by changing the
angle of the microphone.
The most balanced
results are obtained at
an angle of 30–60°.
Less fundamental,
many overtones
Use of a second 604
for picking up the
bottom of the drumskin
and the snares. NB: The
lower microphone must
be phase-reversed to
avoid phase-cancellation
effects due to the second
microphone being on the
other side of the
drumskin.
