ND68
Supercardioid Kick-Drum Microphone
productPage.features
Get inside the kick and let it breathe. The ND68 is voiced for low-frequency sources — deep low end, relaxed midrange, and enough top-end content for aggressive punctuation. Its supercardioid pattern isolates the drum from the rest of the kit, and a large Mylar diaphragm tracks fast transients down to 20 Hz. Rated for 144 dB SPL, it sits right in front of the batter head and stays clean. Kick drum, floor tom, bass cab — the foundation, captured.
- Own the low end — voiced for deep bass with relaxed mids and punchy highs.
- Take the hit — handles 144 dB SPL for close-mic'd kick and high-SPL sources.
- Isolate the kick — supercardioid pattern rejects the rest of the kit.
- Reach down low — large Mylar diaphragm tracks transients from 20 Hz to 11 kHz.
- Survive the gig — Memraflex grille, hydrophobic membrane, and humbucking coil built in.
