Positioning the microphone in a drum

Place the e 901 in the drum. Position the microphone so that its sound inlet basket is directed

upwards.

It is vital to observe the following notes:

Position Resulting sound Commentary

A Much resonance

Much attack

Less attack: Turn the micro-

phone away from where the

beater strikes.

Position the microphone at the bottom of the kick

drum, approx. 10–20 cm from the batter head.

B The e 901 is used for picking

up the attack, the e 902 for

picking up the fundamental.

Combined with an e 902 positioned at the resonant

head. The lower micro-phone must be phase-rever-

sed to avoid phase-cancellation effects due to the

second microphone being on the other side of the

drumskin.

A B

Positioning the microphone on sound-reﬂecting surfaces

Place the e 901 on the desired sound-reﬂecting surface. Position the microphone so that its sound

inlet basket is directed towards the sound source.

It is vital to observe the following notes:

Position Resulting sound Commentary

C Less room resonance por-

tions or comb ﬁlter elements

Improved speech intelligi-

bility

Greater gain reserves in

contrast to free-standing

microphones

Lying on the altar or lectern. Unobtrusive due to ﬂat

design. No microphones in the ﬁeld of vision.

D Less room resonance in

contrast to free-standing

microphones

Lying on the conference table, directed towards the

conference participants. Microphone must not be

covered by papers, folders or similar objects.

E Less room resonance in

contrast to free-standing

microphones

Improved speech intelligi-

bility

Lying at the edge of the stage and directed towards

the stage. As spot microphone of the PA system or

for monitoring purposes in the theater cloakrooms.

Excellent rejection of rumble noise; if necessary, pla-

ce the microphone on a soft pad (e.g. mousepad).

If necessary, combine with overhead microphones

(e.g. Sennheiser ME 36 with MZH 30B & MZC 30).
