Sennheiser e 904 Dynamic Cardioid Drum Microphone

The Sennheiser e 904 is a compact, supercardioid dynamic microphone engineered specifically for close-miking drum toms and percussion. Its supercardioid polar pattern provides a tighter, more focused pickup area than a standard cardioid, offering superior isolation from other drums and cymbals on the kit. This results in a cleaner, more controllable tom sound with minimal bleed. The microphone's frequency response is tailored to capture the full-bodied tone and sharp attack of tom-toms, delivering a punchy, well-defined sound that sits powerfully in the mix. Its low-profile design minimizes visual obstruction and reduces the risk of being struck by drumsticks.

A standout feature of the e 904 is its integrated, tool-free mounting system. The microphone comes with a specially designed clip that attaches securely and quickly to the rim of a drum, allowing for precise and stable positioning directly over the drumhead without the need for a separate microphone stand. This not only saves valuable stage space and setup time but also ensures consistent placement gig after gig. The rugged metal construction ensures durability in the demanding environment of live drumming. The Sennheiser e 904 is a go-to choice for drummers and sound engineers seeking a reliable, great-sounding, and incredibly convenient solution for miking toms.
