SHURE NXN2 | Nexadyne Kick Drum Microphone | Black

NXN2 

Nexadyne Kick Drum Microphone - Black

Upgrade your kick drum setup with the Nexadyne 2 from Shure, a dynamic supercardioid mic with Shure's Revonic Dual-Engine Transducer for more consistent pickup and elimination of unwanted noise. Thanks to the heavier-than-average coils, the Nexadyne 2 offers extended low end with full mids and clearer treble attack.

Thanks to the freedom provided by the unique dual-transducer design, the Nexadyne 2 features a contoured EQ, greatly reducing the amount of postprocessing needed for a killer kick drum sound. The compact cartridge design allows for a small footprint, making it easy to position the mic optimally, while the discreet black design allows for low-profile visibility. The microphone sports an integrated swivel joint, which is separated from the XLR output, ensuring secure placement without strain on cables. The humbucking nature of the Revonic capsule also helps to eliminate unwanted sounds like stage rumble, making the Nexadyne 2 an ideal choice for professional live performances. The Nexadyne 2 includes a zippered bag and a brass 3/8" thread adapter.

Revonic Dual-Engine Transducer Technology

Where typical dynamic microphones use a single transducer, the Revonic cartridge design calls for two. Using two transducers enables acoustic signal processing, allowing Shure to optimize EQ inside of the microphone cartridge.

Wiring both transducers out-of-phase cancels mechanical vibration. This removes self-noise as a factor that needs to be balanced as part of the acoustic signature of the microphone cartridge. As a result, Shure is free to precisely tune the acoustic network to have incredible polar pattern consistency across the frequency range, while precisely managing frequency response curves.
