The mics were fantastic quality, and sound and record brilliantly.

AKG D40

Akg D40 is a great mic for drums wind and any other percussion instrument and can be used in live situation with ease. Toms and Snares are miced.

AKG microphone!

Super versatile and dynamic microphone by AKG! Captures even tiny bit of details, have used it for drums and guitar recording, served me very well!

Great bass sensitivity

This has much more bass pickup than my AKG P4. It is great!

Great mic

This is a great mic for what it is. It’s not my go-to, but I dig it on floor tom. I would imagine for live events, this mic is a great workhorse as well.

Nice sounding mic

I used it on 3 different snare drums I quite like it's transparency .

Smooth sounding All-Around Mic for live

Currently, we're using this microphone for guitar in our live setup. It handles high SPL's well, sounds good, and being a little shorter in length than the competition, it allows us to place it in tighter spots. It is a good mic for guitar and toms. I wouldn't use it for vocals, however.

Superb

I've used the AKG D40 for years....it's a brilliant microphone, very similar to the Shure SM57 but with a smaller footprint. It doesn't have the presence spike of the SM57, which makes it more useful in a studio environment, as I get a reasonably flat signal. For live applications, I've seen a lot of big sound companies using it for micing guitar amps as well as drums, and it does the job. All metal - can survive a nuclear holocaust.

versatile mic

I can't believe this mic is going for so less..its a 100 % steal at this price. Have read countless reviews where the mic has been praised for its versatility andgeneral use. drums - percussion - wind instruments - guitar amps and even vocals. comes with a mount and storage pouch. has a wide frequency response and can take a really loud input without distorting. the quality is good and will serve most users well. note to bajaao - great service and delivery before time.

very good dynamic

Another winner from AKG. I've record some drums with this mic and I like it better than the classic SM57. The included rim clip makes it even more appealing (one less mic stand to set up)
