[. . . ] N/D478 General Product Description Instrumental Microphone N/DYM W I R E ® The N/D478's acoustic response presents optimal performance in both a live sound or studio environment. The new "vocally optimized bass" or VOBTM technology provides the instrumentalist with reduced resonant distortion at low frequencies. Critical damping of the low frequency resonant peak has resulted in a microphone that replaces the "muddiness" found in competitive models with greater warmth and increased clarity. [. . . ] Aim each mic at the top heads angled down about 45°. If the drum rings, tape deadening material to the head or use damping rings. For more "snare" sound place a 2nd mic underneath aimed up at the bottom of head. Place microphone one to two feet above the top of cymbals. Place 5 inches above outside edge at a 45° down angle. 6-24" away, and on axis with the bell of the instrument. Place mic 6-12" from where finger board joins the body.

Always point the microphone at the desired source of sound, and away from any unwanted sources. 2. The microphone should be located close to the sound source to minimize interference from other potential sound sources. Use the 3-to-1 rule when using multiple microphones.
