From Our Research Team:The Evolution Series: Affordable Performance Mics!The e604 from Sennheiser is a high-SPL handling (more than 160dB) cardioid microphone, optimized for use on drum sets and other percussion miking applications. The e604 microphone actually comes with an integrated, pivoting mount that can screw directly onto mic stands or attach to the rim of a drum, making setup very efficient. A balanced, clear, low-distortion signal from the e604 is similar to a high-end studio condenser microphone. A lightweight voice coil provides extended high frequency and rapid transient response. This quality drum mic is housed in a tough, reinforced glass fiber body designed to suppress impact noise. If you're looking to mic your toms or snare, the e604 is a dynamic mic ready for the job!Sennheiser e604 Microphone Features:
The e604 gives you a great, rugged mic for your drums! e604 Image Gallery

Reviewsbased on 5 reviewsI Love this mics for Drums
by Gregg T. from Elko,NV
The e604 uses a capsule similar to the MD421. You can recreate the drum tone with a natural roll off on the highs. I use it to get that clean/deep tom sound. I love the frequency range it offers.

January 7, 2012 Music Background: Recording Engineer The e 604 and the may mic setup
by Drummin93 from Saint Paul,VA.
You guys will not believe the sound this setup makes. I've been drumming now for 12 years and I'm blown away by the sound quality. The sm 57 were my first choice, always, untill a friend let me here h... read more [+]is setup w// the 604's. Well' that did it!!! and when I heard bout the May mic system, that just put it over the top!! I play aggressive, and the clip-on style just got in my way of playing. If you're a real drummer, and want to get rid of all the "in the way mics", then the may mic w/ the e604's are the way to go!! close [-]

February 28, 2007 Music Background: Engineer(Live/Studio), Percussionist, Hobbyist, Student The best dynamic microphone for drums
by Benjamin L Backus from Chandler, AZ
Sound-wise, the 604 sounds similar to the SM57. But it is definately better because of the 604's very fast transient response. I have used SM57s as overheads and pretty much hated the sounds be... read more [+]cause everything sounded so closed and dead. 604's (taken off their shock mounts) work wonderfully as overheads (sounding very similar to condenser microphones), I have used them as very small podium microphones, with an SM57 windscreen over them they look very clean and professional. On guitar, they sound like a 57. I love them on drums, very fast attack, the mount isn't perfect but it works very well in most situations. I like to use them on toms and snare bottom. Sounds good, and you don't have any extra microphone stands taking up space. close [-]
July 1, 2005 Music Background: another secret weapon
by Anonymous
I wrote a review on a -secret weapon- that I used, and this is another mic for that arsenal. July 1, 2005 Music Background: The e604 uses a capsule similar to the MD421. With a little EQ, you can get close to how th... read more [+]ey sound. Without EQ, you get a very -in your face- sound. It sounds nothing like an SM57...the sound you get out of an e604 is crisp, clear and BIG. It does not have that brittle top end that a 57 has and captures the tom very accurately. The proximity effect was perfect...just a little bit to make it larger than life, but not so much like the 57 that it sounds unnatural and flat. The mic is lightweight (you won't believe your hands) and incredibly durable. It WILL NOT affect your drum's acoustics. The clip is fantastic...no stands, easy to adjust, easy on/off and very durable. It has a cord clip as well that you can make everything neat and accessible. We use these for studio and live depending on our situation. If you know your stuff, you can use these instead of 421's. If you have a crowded drum kit, hate stands, want something INCREDIBLY EASY that works, use these. Get the 3 pack because they are a STEAL. They all came with individual pouches, clips and bubble bags to keep them safe, however you could probably drop one off of a building and it would work just as well. I am shocked at the abuse they can take. Anyways-- it's a great tool for live and studio. Easy to use, sounds crystal clear and is inexpensive. If you mic toms with 57's or something else and can't upgrade to the 421's, use these by all means. close [-] Also popular
