Do you mic your drums with 2 overheads, a mic on each Tom, the kick,snare Hi-Hats, etc, etc?
STOP. Instruments are heard through their transduction with the air around them. Mechanical energy changing into sound waves, heard by our ears. It is so much easier to use this relationship by using the microphones far enough away from the drums to allow the microphones to "Hear" the air.
I have been an avid user of close micing techniques in live situations for years. I stopped when I bought the Shure KM 141 stereo set. These two microphone now do the work of 4 or more microphones and I not longer have to fight the drum sound all night long, I let the drummer play and with a pair of these microphones, a mic on kick and if needed a mic on snare for brushes, I have the best drum sound with little eq'ing, dynamics and volume adjustment.
Don't waste your money anymore, try these, they will change your drum micing forever.

orchestra micing
Kris DL 26.01.2016
Ok so I used them as a main pair on an orchestra and to my surprise they performed really good. This being said the bottom end isn't the tightest on the market but they have a very smooth character. A low cut takes care of the low end and then these baby's perform really well. Especially on instruments that tend to sound a little harsh

Wonderful universal microphones ... use these for violins Guitars , whistles flutes accordian s .. etc ... great clarity with little or no feedback issues ...these pick up sound only directly in front of them ... with little or no spill from surrounding instruments ...
highly highly recommended when you use these with good cables and a good quality desk with great pre amps ...

Velvety and honest

I own and have used a bunch of small diaphragm condensers over the years and these standout for a very honest, relatively neutral but not "boring" at all sound. They can be quite directional with great off-axis rejection and coloration, or can be used as great mojo omnis in stereo setups. Up there with the best for sure, up close or from a distance.
