The f2 and f6 microphones are supplied with the DCLIP, a heavy duty nylon stand adapter with snap-to-fit design; the f5 is supplied with the MC1 mic clip. Each clip comes with a 3/8” thread adapter which is mainly used with European mic stands.

Note that if you are looking to eliminate the use of a mic stands, you will need to acquire the Audix DVICE for drums with standard rims, and the

DCLAMP or DFLEX for hand percussion instruments or drums with curved or non-standard rims.

FP4 [2 x f2, 1 x f5, 1 x f6]: This package is ideal for a jazz set-up or a small combo kit, but is also very useful as general purpose percussion mics for rehearsal, small venues, home recording. The f6 is primarily designed for kick drum.

Snare and Toms: As a general rule, the f5 and f2 are designed to be close miked. A good starting point is 2 inches above the rim with the mic pointing towards the center of the head. For more “rim” sound, pull the mic back closer to the rim. For more resonance and depth of field, pull the mic further away from the head. The trick is to find the right balance between resonance and controlling bleed from the other drums.

Kick Drum: The f6 is the kick drum mic. A great accessory to help position the f6 is the STAND-KD, which is specifically designed for that application. To position the f6, a good starting point is to place the mic inside the front hole of the kick drum, pointing towards the beater. (Tip: be sure that the grill is completely inside the hole). For more attack, move the mic closer towards the head, making sure to never position the mic right in front of the beater.
