Audix D6 Nickel Description
Nickel finish version of the D6.
Provides
huge kick drum sound with ground shaking low end while delivering exceptional
clarity and attack.
Designed, machined, assembled and tested by Audix in the
USA, the D6 is a dynamic instrument
microphone used for stage, studio and broadcast applications. The D6, which is
characterized with a cardioid pickup pattern for isolation and feedback
control, is equipped with a VLM™ (Very Low Mass) diaphragm for natural,
accurate sound reproduction.
The D6 is lightweight, compact and easy to position. With a wide frequency
response of 30 Hz - 15 kHz and the ability to handle sound pressure levels in
excess of 144 dB, the D6 is an excellent choice for miking instruments
requiring extended low frequency reproduction such as kick drum, large toms, and
bass cabinets.
Roadworthy construction includes a precision machined aluminum body, black
anodized finish, laser etched model and serial number, steel mesh grill,
Switchcraft® XLR connector and includes a tension-fit heavy duty nylon mic
clip.
Transformerless design, low impedance, and balanced output allow for
interference-free performance even with long cable runs.

Audix D6 Review /

Possibly one of the most pre-EQ’d
sounding mics I’ve ever heard! The D6 is the full aggressive low end response,
low and midrange scooped and gutted to heck and back, and a bright sharp top
end response that screams modern kick drum. Hard rock and metal drummers who
like that clicky kick sound (my friend Bob calls it the “typewriter mic”) need
to pick up a D6. I don’t consider it a great bass cab sound, as it pulls the
midrange back and you need midrange to hear a bass track in a mix on small
speakers. One little secret though, the D6 can sound fantastically huge on
snare drum. Great cut and big body on snare.
Conclusion: For an already
sort of finished hard rock / metal kick drum sound, you gotta have a D6 in the
arsenal. I’m not sure I’d want it to be my only kick mic as it sounds so
specific, but it’s a good option to have
