Gearslutz.com - View Single Post - Best ROCK KICK pre for inside and outside or best single pre for inside and outside

I'll second the vote for the ATM25 for inside the kick...that mic has won most of the time for me on that application for the past 3 years. And we have quite a few kick drum mics:

ATM25
Beta52
RE20
D112
D12
421
SM57
U47fet
U47
M88

The D112 and Beta52 inside, along with the U47fet and RE20 outside, are by far the most commonly used mics by freelancers from what I see.

The ATM25 is my favorite for inside, followed by the Beta52, and U47 or U47fet outside.
