Hi,
I have been using the same mic for a few years now along with the Kicker 2.0 muffler, I think it is a great mic for kick and takes very little eq to get a good solid kick. I don’t use any of AH presets, just my ears.
The only minor problem I have had with the mic is it emitting white noise whist sat idle, turns out that it had got damp from being stored in a mic box in the van. I stored it in the airing cupboard for a couple of days and that has cured that, for now anyway..
I have even used it as an ambience mic for picking up the room whilst recording a multi-track at one of our shows.
🙂
