Sontronics DM-1T Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone for Tom Drums
The Sontronics DM-1T is a precision-engineered small-diaphragm condenser microphone designed specifically to capture the full character, depth, and attack of tom-toms with exceptional accuracy. Built for demanding studio and live environments, the DM-1T delivers detailed transient response and rich low-end resonance that allows toms to sit naturally and powerfully in any mix.
With a cardioid polar pattern and tailored frequency response, the DM-1T focuses cleanly on the drum source while minimizing bleed from surrounding kit elements. Its compact, rugged design makes it ideal for tight drum setups, while the integrated -10dB pad enables confident handling of aggressive playing styles and high sound pressure levels without distortion.
