Five microphone models – Hemisphere mic modelling

The DN-57, a star since 1965, holds the title of possibly the best-selling mic ever. It’s fantastic when mixed with other types like ribbons and large diaphragm condensers, making for a beautifully balanced sound. Then there’s the DN-545, the predecessor of the 57, famous for its use on The Beach Boys’ “Pet Sounds” album—what a classic! It really captures that vintage vibe. Moving on, the DN-604 is a go-to for its versatility in both studios and on stages worldwide, perfect for nailing those snare and tom drum sounds with its compact clip-on style.

The DN-409U is another gem, especially beloved for recording electric guitar amps, providing a smooth top and lovely low-end that makes everything blend seamlessly in a mix. Lastly, the DN-4 is a modern all-rounder, ideal for toms and guitar cabinets, complete with a three-position filter to tweak your sound just right. Each of these mics offers a unique tonal option to suit your recording needs.
