The MD 421 Now in a Drumstick-proof Package
The Sennheiser MD 421 is to toms what the Royer 121 is to guitars — it’s been a staple for decades due to its amazing sound and dependability. The Sennheiser MD 421 Kompakt delivers the same performance, cardioid pickup pattern, remarkable dynamic range, and high SPL handling as the original but in an aptly named compact package that is much less intrusive. Perhaps best of all, Sweetwater studio engineers nearly jumped for joy to see that the MD 421 Kompakt features a newly designed integrated mic clip and the newly designed MZH drum microphone clip!

Legendary performance
Do you listen to music with drums? Then you’ve heard an MD 421. It’s considered the go-to microphone for rack and floor toms and has been in constant percussive employment for decades. Its 30Hz–17kHz frequency response and high SPL handling make it ubiquitous in professional and project studios. The Kompakt version delivers all of that plus a smaller profile that’s much less likely to be whacked by a wayward drumstick.
This is not a drill — new mic clips!
For all its wonderful features, the original MD 421’s mic clip left something to be desired. Sennheiser listened to the critiques and will deliver the MD 421 Kompakt with a newly designed integrated mic clip that is much more stable, secure, and safe. This package also includes the newly designed MZH drum microphone clip.
Sennheiser MD 421 Kompakt with MZH Drum Microphone Clip Features:
- Iconic MD 421 performance in a streamlined profile
- Exceptionally high SPL handles drums and other loud instruments with ease
- Compact size means versatility for any studio or stage
- Redesigned mic clip is securely affixed to the microphone itself for enhanced ease of use
