EV ND44

I've always liked EV mics. Less bass and proximity effect than the ND46 and is much less bulky, best suited to rack toms, off-axis response surprisingly clear and full-range for a dynamic. Like the ND46 has better high freq. and off-axis response than most dynamics. Great clarity and transient detail for any non-electric instruments. Very effective over violin, viola and other strings, also woodwinds or brass section, select the ND46 for deeper bass instruments. Good on clean guitar tones eg jazz. Has one of the best rim mounts included that fits different sized hoops and is easy to use. It would be wise to order it with the SAND-1 stand adapter for other instruments, it's provided with the rim mount only. Combined with the swivel head allows very flexible mounting in tight spaces. Useful alternative on snare, from soft brushes to hard hitters with its detail and transients. Great performance for this price, clever design works in any space or position

Bought this to mic a snare drum - that's probably why you are considering it as well. It works great for that. It's a no-frills dynamic mic with a low noise-floor and a good sound across the spectrum. To me, it sounds better that the "industry standard" SM57 - it's just a little more hi-fi. Thus, I actually found that I also really like it in front of a guitar cabinat.

I can easily recommend it to those looking for a "mid-forward" microphone who aren't happy with the lo-fi qualities of an SM57.

Great mic for guitar and snare.

Este Microfone da série ND foi feito para soar na perfeição na tarola como no timbalão alto.
Para a tarola, se quiser dar mais corpo, basta 5 ou 6 db por volta dos 175Hz. Para o tom alto, nem é preciso fazer alguma Eq.
Não me parece ser muito adaptado para timbalões de 14'' ou 16''.
Deve ser por isto que o ND68 existe.
Isto dito, tem som muito linear e definido que encontra logo o seu lugar no meio do mix.

auf der Suche nach einem easy to set live mik hab ich mir das nd44 neulich direkt bei Thomann geholt. Und was soll ich sagen; letzten Donnerstag die Feuertaufe bei 2 Bands (Chicago Blues Rock) im live Einsatz und vom ganzen set das einfachste Mikrophon. Anbringen, Einpegeln...klingt super. Kein Geschraube am EQ. Sehr natürlich und trotzdem fett. Ich weiß guter Sound hängt an vielem aber im ernst; so genial wie das sennheiser brickette an fast allen Gitarren Amps funktioniert, so gut ist das ND44. Arbeite auch gern mit audix d2, d4, d6, aber das ND hat durch seine Bauform den Vorteil, dass das Kabel immer nach unten läuft. Es hat keine Features wie lowcut etc. braucht es aber auch nicht. Bin hell auf begeistert
