Okay, I installed the KickPort and tried it on the gig. For those who's not familiar with my BD size, it's an 18" Tama birtch, as the picture indicates.
Let's get this settled first:
First, there is something about sound people and I just don't seem to get along. And I'm a nice person just don't know why they seem so unaware of what's happening with sound and drums. As you can see, he literally dropped the mick into the base drum, knowing there was no interior dampening (ex. pillows, fabric etc.). Likened to tossing an object into a garbage can! The mic just layed, on the shell causing a vibration at every stroke of the BD. It was utterly disturbing! Anyways, again, the man was not paying attention but rather playing a hand shaker! I finally got his attention and quickened him to take the mic out and place it outside, center on the KickPort's opening. So he did.
Anyway, I need to be somewhere in the next 5 minutes but will return on what I was supposed to comment on and that's my first KickPort experience. Please bear with me and thank you.
