Description
Kick mic stand (often called a low-profile microphone stand) is a specialized, heavy-duty stand designed specifically to hold microphones close to the floor. It is engineered primarily for making kick drums, bass guitar cabinets, and acoustic floor instruments.
Key Features
1. Low-Profile and Compact Design: Features a short vertical shaft and a short mini-boom arm, allowing it to slip underneath cymbals and fit snugly right in front of a bass drum.
2. Heavy, Weighted Base: Typically built with a heavy cast-iron round base or a compact, sturdy tripod base to ensure the stand remains completely stable and prevents tipping over.
3. Adjustable Height and Angle: Allows precision placement so sound engineers can angle the microphone directly at the sweet spot of the drum head (either right outside the sound hole or positioned just inside).
4. Durable Stage-Ready Build: Constructed from rugged steel components designed to withstand accidental drumstick strikes and heavy touring use.
Where to Use It
1. Live Concert Stages & Music Venues: Used by sound technicians to mic up drum kits cleanly without cluttering the stage with tall, obtrusive boom stands.
2. Recording & Professional Studios: Essential for tracking kick drums and bass amp cabinets with maximum acoustic isolation and accurate positioning.
3. Houses of Worship & Auditoriums: Commonly used in church band setups to keep the front stage area visually clean while maintaining professional sound capture.
4. Acoustic Floor Instruments: Can also be used for making low-to-the-ground instruments like cajons, floor toms, or guitar amplifiers.
