(More customer reviews)I was looking for a cheap way to get some drums miced up in a hurry for this Saturday's St. Patrick's Day parade. I took a chance on this kit, even though I have never purchased anything that says "Pyle" on the label. Upon receiving this kit, my first surprise was the quality of the case, and then upon opening, I was surpised to find that these were the EXACT same microphones as the ones I borrowed once from a friend to do some recordings, but branded differently. He paid about 350-400 for his kit (still cheap by today's standards).
I pulled out 1 overhead condensor and the kick-drum mic and mounted them, fired up the PA and had our drummer play a bit and was shocked at the clarity of the overhead mic! We could probably get away with just using this one microphone to mic the entire kit, or two overheads; they pick up everything very clearly. I turned up the volume on the kick-drum mic and was even more surprised to hear the thump of a much more expensive mic coming out of this seemingly too-small mic. Now, I have a wonderful drum mix coming from only 2 microphones and my mixer has more channels free than I would have expected. For fun, I added one of the tom/snare mics and they sounded equally clear.
After purchasing this, I can tell you that there is absolutely NO way I would purchase one of the "high-end" drum-mic kits. If you are looking for a solution for recording or live sound, this is it. I promise you will LOVE the sound and you will be ecstatic about the price you paid to get that sound.
