The Korena take

Electro-Voice's ND44 is a large-diaphragm dynamic instrument microphone designed for drums and other rhythm-section instruments. Its tight cardioid pattern is intended to separate the target source from nearby instruments, while the capsule is voiced for the forceful, defined character of these sources. A rotating low-profile head and drum rim clamp make it easier to position around a drum set. The rugged body and tough windscreen are designed to withstand accidental stick contact.
