Microphones used by Phil Rudd on Black Ice
Avg price: $1,749.99
The overheads were Neumann 87 or 47, and on the hi?hat I used a Neumann KM84, which gives a nice crisp sound, but also has enough body in it. There is some tone to the hi?hat and you don't want to get rid of it and have just this ticky?ticky sound.
According to Mike Fraser, mix engineer, Rudd used this mic for the overhead.
