Introduction
You know how difficult it can be to find the right microphone kit for drummers. Today I am excited to review the WorldByDesign Ghostalker drum mic kit. This kit produces clear, crisp sounds that blend seamlessly into the mix. This review will cover the features, setup, sound quality, overall value, and overall value for the Ghostalker mic kit.
Features and Setup
Ghostalker’s microphone kit includes a kickdrum mic, three tom/snare microphones, and two overhead condenser microphones. The mics are supplied with shock mounts, mic clips and a carrying case. The included instruction booklet made it easy to set up the kit. All mics have XLR connectors, and require phantom electricity to operate.
Kick Drum Mic
The Ghostalker kit includes a kick drum microphone. It is a dynamic microphone that uses a cardioid pattern. It captures the low-end punch and body without any muddiness. The mic’s frequency response is 20Hz-15kHz, and it can handle SPLs upto 145dB. This makes it ideal for loud drummers.
Tom and Snare Mics
The tom/snare microphones are also dynamic microphones that have cardioid polar patterns. They are designed to capture the sound of the toms/snare and the resonance of the toms/snare, while rejecting unwanted sounds from the rest of the kit. The mics can handle SPLs of up to 145dB and have a frequency range of 60Hz-15kHz.
Overhead Condenser Mics
Two condenser microphones are included in the Ghostalker kit and are designed to capture the cymbals as well as the overall ambience. They have cardioid patterns and a frequency range of 20Hz-20kHz. To operate, the mics need phantom power and can handle SPLs of up to 135dB.
Sound Quality
The sound quality of the Ghostalker microphone system was amazing after I set it up. The kick drum microphone provided a powerful and impactful low-end without any muddiness. The tom and snare microphones captured the exact tone and attack of the drums. The overhead condenser microphones gave a clear picture of the cymbals as well as the overall sound of the kit. I was satisfied with the frequency response and SPL handling each mic provided.
Overall Value
The WorldByDesign Ghostalker microphone set is a great value for drummers who are looking for high-quality microphone solutions. It is simple to set up and delivers exceptional sound quality. The included carrying case makes transporting the kit easy. I would highly recommend the Ghostalker kit for any drummer who wants to take their sound to a higher level.
