The Korena take

Seven-piece condenser drum mic pack for a full kit. For players and engineers miking drums who already own phantom-powered preamps.

Product studyAudix FP7 Drum Mic Pack

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Miking a full kit for home or project studio recording
  • Live drum reinforcement where every drum needs a mic
  • Replacing a mismatched collection with one consistent set

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Anyone whose mixer or interface lacks 48V phantom power
  • Single-drum or minimal two-mic setups — you'd overbuy
  • Vocal or general-purpose use; these are tuned for drums

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

12–48V phantom power required

Every mic needs phantom from your interface or console. Passive-input mixers and most portable recorders won't drive them.

Detail 02

Cardioid pattern

Picks up mostly what's in front. Reduces cymbal wash and neighboring-drum spill on close mics.

Detail 03

>24dB off-axis rejection

Strong isolation between drums. Cleaner individual tracks, less phase mess when you mix the kit.

Detail 04

137dB max SPL

Handles close snare and kick hits without breaking up. Loud drumming won't overload the capsule.

Detail 05

40Hz–20kHz frequency response

Low end reaches kick fundamentals; the top extends past cymbal detail. Full-range enough for the whole kit.

Detail 06

Cast zinc alloy housing

Heavier and more impact-resistant than plastic bodies. Survives stick strikes and repeated load-in.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Cables and mic stands are not part of a mic pack — budget separately
  2. 02You need seven phantom-powered inputs, or use an added preamp
  3. 03Confirm mount type fits your rims before setup night

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do I need phantom power for these?

Yes. They're pre-polarized condensers requiring 12–48V phantom. Check your interface or mixer supplies it on every channel you plan to use.

02Are XLR cables included?

Mic packs generally don't include cables. Plan on seven XLR runs long enough to reach your interface from the kit.

03How many inputs do I need on my interface?

One per mic in the pack, all with phantom power. Fewer inputs means submixing drums or tracking fewer pieces at a time.

04Can I use these for vocals or guitar amps?

They'll pass signal, but they're voiced and built for drums with high SPL handling and tight rejection. Better choices exist for vocals.
