OVERALL OPINION
How long have you use it?
I saw him run on a reggae band and it blew me away. I knew that the mark was a good product and I looked for a used (purchased here)
The Kickball sounds punchy by placing well in the bass drum ... the mikes were difficult to place the kit quickly and efficiently ...
The Kickball well suited to an open, more jazzy with less frenzy in the extreme.
On some kicking rock, however, it seemed a bit obscure, particularly when compared to a D112 and a beefy Beta52A prompt.
The kickball sounded a bit woolly and chubby in comparison to other mikes.
EQ has helped small ... the Kickball has become quite usable.
That sounds great on Tom, bringing life to the end of the lower and capturing long lengths of its tone.
The sound is comparable with that of the Sennheiser MD421, though somewhat less dynamic.
The Kickball seemed better than the E604
the darkness of the mic has actually helped reduce repisses cymbals.
