I would agree with this. re20 is alright. Tried the Audix a couple of times, and it was alright. THe ubiquitous d112 that many think is the preeminent kick mic doesn't do it for me, except for certain rock drum sounds. FOr overall go-to kick mic where I"m not really sure what the band is going to sound like, or the drum kit, I like the 421, older version as well. NO matter what kick drum I can always get a usable kick sound with the SEnn. I've also used the SEnn as a snare mic a few times.

What do you consider to be *an older version* ? I might start shopping. Thanks. -- J Wald "You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think.... "

Nothing but the best. Eeeek! Aren't the high SPLs produced by a kick drum in severe danger of damaging the ribbon?
