{"product_id":"solomon-lofreq-sub-mic-trooper","title":"Solomon LoFReQ Sub Microphone - Trooper","description":"\u003cp\u003eUsing a speaker as a low-frequency capture mic is nothing new. The Beatles used this technique as far back as the recordings of \"Paperback Writer\" and \"Rain\". The \u003cstrong\u003eSolomon LoFReQ Sub Mic\u003c\/strong\u003e is intended to work alongside your existing kick drum microphone, in a separate channel, thereby allowing more flexibility with EQ, compression and processing in general. By having two separate channels you have the best chance at molding the signals through separate EQ, compression etc. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSetting the Gain Stage\u003c\/h3\u003eThe LoFReQ is designed with an inline pad to match most dynamic kick drum mics as far as output at your mic pre. A good starting point would be to set your primary kick mic, then set the LoFReQ gain the same, and adjust from there. How much you will need to adjust will depend on placement, source SPL, etc. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRolling off the Highs\u003c\/h3\u003eIf you’re micing a kick drum, try rolling off around 150hz and up. Everybody’s taste is different, but that’s not a bad starting point.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Solomon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47247853846665,"sku":"52681","price":249.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/8706\/5737\/files\/solomon_mics_lofreq_trooper_1.jpg?v=1784046362","url":"https:\/\/vintage-king-staging.myshopify.com\/products\/solomon-lofreq-sub-mic-trooper","provider":"Vintage King Staging","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
