When used alone or in combination with a standard kick drum microphone, the Subkick will capture a full range of frequencies without additional signal processing. The unit provides plenty of punch and controlled thickness, without the hassle of phasing problems or bleed.
Yamaha drum artist Russ Miller (photo) has co-designed the innovative device. Miller states:
\"The Subkick is not a mic or a drum – it\'s both. I was looking for a way to capture the actual, uncolored sound of my kick, both on tape and while playing live. Since a mic placed in a common position really doesn\'t capture everything, I combined some of the characteristics of a drum and the idea of using a speaker as an extremely large mic diaphragm. The Yamaha Subkick was born.\"
