VERY Pleasant Surprise
By Big Daddy
I was looking for a cheap way to get some drums miced up in a hurry for this Saturday's St. Patrick's Day parade. I took a chance on this kit, even though I have never purchased anything that says "Pyle" on the label. Upon receiving this kit, my first surprise was the quality of the case, and then upon opening, I was surpised to find that these were the EXACT same microphones as the ones I borrowed once from a friend to do some recordings, but branded differently. He paid about 350-400 for his kit (still cheap by today's standards).I pulled out 1 overhead condensor and the kick-drum mic and mounted them, fired up the PA and had our drummer play a bit and was shocked at the clarity of the overhead mic! We could probably get away with just using this one microphone to mic the entire kit, or two overheads; they pick up everything very clearly. I turned up the volume on the kick-drum mic and was even more surprised to hear the thump of a much more expensive mic coming out of this seemingly too-small mic. Now, I have a wonderful drum mix coming from only 2 microphones and my mixer has more channels free than I would have expected. For fun, I added one of the tom/snare mics and they sounded equally clear.After purchasing this, I can tell you that there is absolutely NO way I would purchase one of the "high-end" drum-mic kits. If you are looking for a solution for recording or live sound, this is it. I promise you will LOVE the sound and you will be ecstatic about the price you paid to get that sound.

Hi all, if you are considering buying these, I can thoroughly recommend them. I have very limited sound engineering experience (read: nil!) and have never mic'd or recorded a drum kit before. I have to admit, I purchased these based on price alone. I have little money to build my studio and everything I buy is a carefully considered decision. The selling factor for me with this package was the included two overhead condensers, the travel case and the mounting hardware.A week or so ago, our drummer came to my house to lay down a couple of drum tracks for us to record over. I hooked everything up and pressed record. A few tweaks here and there to do with mic placement and I was happy with the outcome. My only concern was that one of the condensers was a little hyper sensitive and didn't like being too close to the cymbals. Other than that, I was quietly very impressed with how this package performed. You can listen to the recording I made here: (Tried to insert link to upload and it was removed, so you'll just have to take my word for it....!)To me, you can't beat this package for price and performance. I am a very happy man!

I did 8 hours of drum tracking with these. I record small home demos for my music and the recordings came out good. In particular, the condensers sound pretty good. Very decent kick/snare/tom mics.NOTE: this set's mic screw threads are at 3/8, not the US standard 5/8, so you'll need to purchase mic screw thread adapters. I bought three for the 2 condenser's mic clips and the kick drum mic clip. Should only cost about $7 in total.Other than that, these work well for me and should be fine for most people, home demos, and small gigs.
