Dennie Miller, FOH for Volbeat talks about condenser mics on drum kits

Coming from an audio system engineering background, Dennie Miller, FOH for Volbeat believes in the importance of the microphone. “In my background, we say choose the right speaker put it in the right place and point it in the right direction. Well, a microphone is also a transducer, just like a speaker so the same rule applies.” He continues: “If you choose the right microphone, put it in the right place and point it in the right direction you've done a big part of the job before you ever get to your console.”
