t.bone BD 3000

Anonymous 16.07.2014

I was looking for a kick drum mic on a budget and having read other reviews of this BD300, which I believe is Thomann's own brand offering, I wasn't expecting much at the price - however, I stuck it in the drummer's kick drum on a small stand and placed it about an inch away from the beater skin just opposite the beater.

It recorded well enough, but it was only when I was able to properly listen to the results in the context of a mix that I was very pleasantly surprised with the results.

Nice and crisp, full-weighted 'thump' with a little bit of click in it - perfect. Wasn't too anodyne and still sounded like a real kick drum, but more than good enough to place in a mix with a little bit of the bottom end rolled off.

More than pleased at this price - I would recommend the BD 300.

Decent kick mic for the money

Stuuu 14.09.2023

Solid construction, sounds good for the money but not as good as the mic it imitates, needed a lil more work with the graphic

Pretty Decent

Bought this mic because of the cheap price (obviously).

Used a a few times and it does what it has to do: Amplify the Kick Drum. It does generate some feedback at higher volumes but I would still recommend this if you're not looking for super quality but something to amplify the kick trough a small PA for a small venue.

Good value

krj- 04.07.2020

Best mic for 50 euro, don't even look further. Good metal casing, heavy enough to stay on a pillow if used inside a drum, strong xlr connection.
Sound may not be to everyone's liking and response is not completely flat, it has a peak around 250Hz which is ok for bass and brass, but has to be attenuated for kick drum. If you want something a little bit better, prepare to pay twice as much.

Very good sounding yet a touch cheap

John’s 30.06.2022

Sounds great
Really good for kick drums and very very good for bass amps. Only complaint would be the cheaper plastic base that I can’t see lasting for very long but at this price you can’t really complain too much

Good value kick drum microphone

Andy2229 18.03.2015

Needed a kick drum mic for the bass drum for a live gigging band. Had been using a t.bone MB75 which did ok but needed to be a bit better on the low frequency pick up.The t.bone BD300 got good reviews on the Thomann site and was significantly cheaper than some of the more famous named brands so I tried it. For the money, this is a great bass drum mic, very responsive and maintains the tone on the pick up. For a gigging band, this is ideal if you need a good quality mic without breaking the bank. Would recommend.

Nice kick drum mic

Hector M. 16.11.2015

Very nice kick drum mic. It looks nice and captures the sound appropriately, though it might not be able to capture the whole bottom end, for which you might want to use an additional sub-kick. Apart from this, the mic fits easily in a regular hole of the resonant head of the kick drum. The grip swivel doesn't go lose once adjusted properly, but you might need to put some extra effort in this task. All in all, a recommendable mic for the price, with good sound and great looks.
