A 50 Hz–2000 Hz frequency response and figure-8 pattern give a focused, massive picture of the low end without needing extra low-end shaping downstream. A 6.3 Ω output impedance and moving-coil construction keep the signal dense and resistant to overload even at the very high SPLs a kick drum or bass cabinet can produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA driver acting as a microphone instead of a standard dynamic capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA common problem when miking a kick: standard dynamic mics capture the beater attack fine but lose that low, chest-thumping pressure that's felt more than heard through headphones. The AV10-MLF, built with a single continuous press-formed 18cm cone, reproduces the kind of frequency response you get from a woofer running in reverse as a microphone — hence the \"white cone\" reputation. In practice that means a signal that already sounds like a boosted sub, rather than a kick that needs a bass-synth plugin layered on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAn enclosed drum shell instead of an open speaker face\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe open construction of typical speaker-as-microphone designs easily picks up bleed from other kit elements sitting close to the kick, especially the snare and hi-hat. Kick encloses the driver in a real wooden drum shell with an actual 10\" mesh head, which naturally limits how much surrounding sound gets in and keeps the mic focused on what's directly in front of it. The heavy-duty, double-braced drum stand included with the unit removes the need to mount it on a standard mic stand, which simply wouldn't hold this weight and shell size — whether you're tracking in the studio or running it live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSub-frequency moving-coil dynamic microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAV10-MLF element: single continuous press-formed 18cm cone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFigure-8 polar pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReal wooden drum shell with a 10\" mesh head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty, double-braced drum stand included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMale XLR connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimized for kick drum, bass cabinets, and other large low-frequency sources\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: moving coil dynamic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 50 Hz - 2000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput impedance: 6.3 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolar pattern: figure-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElement: AV10-MLF, 18cm cone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector: male XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShell: birch ply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrum head: 10\" mesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 11.375\" W x 11.375\" H x 5.5\" D (without stand)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 3.1 kg \/ 6.8 lb without stand, 4.6 kg \/ 10.1 lb with stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Avantone Pro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54286047314257,"sku":"40945","price":372.7,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/AvantoneProKICK1.jpg?v=1784202624","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/products\/avantone-pro-kick","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
