IN8-ST4 (x4)

The IN8-ST4 dynamic microphone is perfectly designed for capturing tom and snare drums. It’s specifically engineered to pick up the specific frequency range and tonality of snares and toms, providing a crisp and clear sound that accurately captures the unique character of each drum perfectly.

IN8-P3 (x3)

The IN8-P3 is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone which is perfect for use with cymbals and overheads.
